Make-up mistakes

Another new name Sue · ‎03-11-2010

Yesterday I neatly applied one eyebrow with a lip liner pencil. Real cute! A red eyebrow!

Have you made any mistakes in applying make-up?

Well I used an eyeliner on my brows by accident but it didn't look too bad lol

Once I was putting on my eye makeup and got distracted by something. Finished dressing, ran out to the car and went to adjust the rear view mirror and HORRORS! I only had makeup on one eye! ${#emotions_dlg.scared}$ Scared myself! Thank goodness I noticed!

Oh my yes, I often would "think" my MU looked great in my bathroom, but once outside discovered it was too dark, wrong color etc. Also have made the mistake of not wearing waterproof liner in the summer and ended up with crazy raccoon eyes.

I recently used my dark black mascara on my eyebrow thinking it was my clear brow gel. Not a good look on me since my brows are so blonde you can't even see them.

Oh the worst thing I ever did was years ago when green concealers were all the rage for pimples...I had one on the side of my nose so I dotted on the green stuff and put my foundation on and went to work.

2 hours later I went to the restroom and when I looked in the mirror, one side of my nose was green! Like WickedWitch, green LOL I had forgotten to blend it, so it was totally obvious right through my sheer foundation...Oh so green!

I was soooo mad nobody had told me until I realized that my co-worker was only on my left side and the green was on my right--she would never have seen it unless we were having a face-to-face conversation, which we weren't... OMG I was sooo embarassed though lol

At a family holiday gathering, I thought I had a clear lip balm in my pocket but instead had a tinted one in more reddish color. My lips were dry so I kept reaching in my pocket and adding another coat not caring if I went outside the lipline since I thought it was clear.

This isn't exactly a makeup blunder but another time way back I was in a hurry and grabbed furniture polish instead of hairspray.

Not that one....LOL But, twice in the same week, I stood in front of my bathroom mirror and applied my IT Bye Bye under eye concealor all over my face. Like it was makeup. I love the stuff as a concealor for small areas, like under eye and the occasional blemish or red spot. But it's too heavy for all over my face. I can see getting distracted and doing it once, but twice in the same week was a bit much. Plus I wasted a lot of product. It isn't makeup but same idea. Once I was in hurry and I intended to wash my hair and pull it up into a ponytail. The washing went ok but instead of conditioner, I put MORE shampoo on my hair and stood in the shower confused because the "conditioner" was so sudsy, It took me a while to figure out what I did. So I rinsed my hair out and blanked out and made the exact same mistake again! More shampoo. On the third try, I got it right. My hair was very, very clean....and I was very, very late for work.

These are cracking me up. I used Bye Bye undereye twice this week as eye primer. Both are in black tubes. Just a note--Bye Bye undereye doesn't work well as a primer

I have gone out and about with one eye made up, and the other not. That was a really bad day.

Not makeup, but I picked up my daughter at school this week with my shirt on inside out. I have to walk up and speak to the teacher, seeing all of the other parents. Shirt. Inside Out.

I've decided I should look in the mirror before I leave the house.
