Worst Make Up Sins


As much as I never want to be too judgemental over someone's make up I sometimes can't help but cringe when I see someone who could really do with some guidance. It got me thinking that I should write a post talking about the things that I really feel are the absolute worst of the worst when it comes to make up.

Orange Foundation
So this one is quite basic, but don't you hate when you walk past someone who's face is completely orange next to their neck? They need to know that it doesn't make you look tanned, it makes you look like an Oompa Loompa. It's not that hard to test the foundation on your hand before you buy it.

Eyebrows
Overplucking and underplucking are a problem here. You do not want your eyebrows to be one tiny line but when they're practically down to your cheekbones it may be time to get the tweezers out. Also, if your eyebrows aren't black please do not fill them in black! Sharpie black eyebrows which are obviously fake will never be in style. Same goes for eyebrows that are 6cm thick.

Too Many Coats Of Mascara
I know from experience that if you go over your mascara too many times the eyelashes stick together and it looks like you have about 5 super defined lashes. Not the ideal look.

Concealer-Nude Lipstick
Nude lipstick can be super pretty and I absolutely love it but I just think that when it looks like you've put concealer on your lips your lipstick might be a bit too nude and you should probably reign it in a bit. This one is more personal preference though so go for it if it's a style you like.

Too Much Bronzer
Kind of similar to Oompa Loompa foundation but covering your face with bronzer may just make you look a little too orange. It might be better to have a lighter hand or to use it more subtly to create a nice effect.

Too Much Blush
Blush can be super pretty but when you have a bright pink circle on your cheeks it doesn't make you look flushed it makes you look as thought you've been out in the cold for 710 million years. Just like with bronzer, subtly is key.

Sorry if this post came across a bit mean, just wanted to get my point across! If you've got any others make up sins you'd like to share be sure to let me know!
