8 Classic Make Up Mistakes To Avoid ...

Getting make up right can be hard work…In an ideal world, we’d all have the tools and make up we need to create an amazing look for every occasion, but in the real world, it’s likely that we’ll have to make do with what we’ve already got. Which means we are prone to making make up blunders…here are the top ones to should avoid!


1. Wearing too much, or too little

One of the most common make up mistakes is not matching your make up to the occasion. Most days won’t call for full make up, which could make you look like you are trying too hard, and instead would suit a much more natural look better. For everyday activities, try just using a moisturizer, under eye concealer, a little blush, and some lipgloss. Then curl your eyelashes, and you have the perfect daytime look!

    This has to be one of the most ridiculous posts I’ve ever seen. While some of your tips are generally great advice (foundation that matches and skin care), some others are simply your opinions. Of ... See more course, this is your blog and a reader would expect to hear your opinions, but because you don’t like certain things (say, a bold eye paired with a bold lip) doesn’t make them wrong. If someone wants to wear rainbow eyeshadow or neon purple lipstick (with no lipgloss, because you don’t ALWAYS have to wear it), let them. It doesn’t mean they’re doing something wrong simply because you don’t like it.

    While many of your readers may prefer more natural “beauty” makeup as it seems you do, I’m sure there are several who like bolder, brighter looks or experimenting with different trends. Blogging is a great way to express your opinions and help people, but this just isn’t the way to do it.

      Hey Candy,
      Most pieces of advice start as someone’s opinion, don’t you think? Besides the one about highlighting either your lips or your eyes is pretty universal advice. Now, whether you choose to follow ... See more it or not is up to you. Also, I don’t see how the entire post is “ridiculous” just because you don’t agree with two out of eight points.That’s a rude way of expressing your opinion and THAT isn’t the way to do it either :)
      Thanks for stopping by.

      Hey Cindy,
      From what I know and have read, BB creams are usually a combination of foundation, moisturizer and moisturizer. What it does is simplify your skin regime since you wont have to use separate ... See more creams and foundations. It’s an all in one product!

    I completely agree with your post. I see girls and women piling on the make up like it’s some ever lasting youth serum. Seriously? I think women look better with less make-up. More natural. It ... See more makes them look more approachable. And to tell you the truth you’ve converted me…I used to over pluck my eyebrows, but after reading this I think I agree the natural eyebrow does look better. Luckily I haven’t gotten to the point where the hair doesn’t grow back!

    These are wonderful tips!

    I also have a couple to add. Please, at all cost avoid using eye pencil to underline the bottom of your eye solely. I saw only ... See more a couple of women with huge blue mindal shaped eyes who could pull off that look. But for most people it just makes their eyes look small and droopy. As a teenager I used to make this makeup mistake (a LOT) and I now see so many young girls doing the same thing…

    On the contrary, underlining solely the upper lid is flattering to all kinds of eye shapes, just make sure you get all the spaces between the lashes too, to make those eye lashes look even more luscious and your eyes – defined and bright!
