Doing your own makeup can be proved tricky especially if the tutorial you are following isn’t easy enough or the makeup you are trying to achieve is too difficult for your amateur skills.
Then, it’s better to wipe it all off and try again, taking all the time you might need! You must feel confident that the result will suit and compliment you.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly as we have planned, here you will see 73 hilarious makeup fails that can even considered a bit scary!

You know your contour is a little too red when people start asking if you have a sunburn or worse. What was she thinking?

#3 Just wrong
The eye makeup is unique. The lips, on the other hand, look the exact shade and texture of deli meat. They’re hard to move past.

We can all use a little shine. However, when it reaches an android level, you’ve gone too far.

#8 So heavy
This makeup was so heavy that she had to hold it on with her hands. Or that’s what it looks like anyway.

#9 The villain
She tried a Disney villain look. It came out like a villainous clown. At least she knows it was a mistake. We worry more for the ones who don’t realize it.

#10 Not a match
Not all foundation is a perfect match. This one isn’t even in the right realm. It’s like that’s not her head…or not her body. We’re not sure which is scarier.

#14 Keeping caterpillars
The foundation is a bad match. However, it’s the eyebrows that we can’t stop looking at.

#15 How it happened
If we had to imagine how most of the makeup we’ve seen so far happened, it would go something like this. So much foundation!

#22 The makeup artist
This was done by a makeup artist. We have an growing sense of dread growing when it comes to the words “makeup” and “artist.”

#25 Abstract art
Those are some of the straightest lines and geometric shapes we have ever seen on a face. That’s actually some kind of skill.

It’s not a great sign when your makeup is the same color as a troll doll. It is unique, at least.

Creative is good. Sometimes, it goes a little too far in the direction of the circus.
Source:
__fliman__ via Reddit
#29 The foundation
No, that foundation does not match her complexion. Just look at her neck. The person who gave her advice might need to reevaluate a few things.

The more you look, the more you see. There are so many things that are wrong here.

QueenofRock via Reddit
#34 Killing the dream
Her “before” eyebrows are in the dreams of many. Then she crushed those dreams with a palette of makeup.

queeriequeerio via Reddit
#35 The mud mask look
Some have pointed out that the foundation looks like mud. Others have compared the look to a corpse. This makeup just didn’t go over well.

geckomurder via Reddit
#37 The lips
There is something just wrong with that use of gloss. It could make you shiver.
Source:
AccomplishedAioli via Reddit
#38 A different shade
Her face doesn’t quite match the skin on her arm. It’s not even close. It’s almost like it belongs to someone else, and she’s borrowing it.

Those brows don’t stop. Ever.

#43 The brows
The eyeshadow actually has a nice frosty look to it. But why did she extend it into the eyebrows?
Source:
firebord1313 via Reddit
#44 Just no
Some things should not be done with lip gloss and liner. This is one of those things.

#50 The doll look
At some point, this went beyond makeup. The Botox isn’t helping any.

#54 Serious orange
If you must have an autumn shade that doesn’t match your complexion, it may as well be pumpkin orange.

#55 Different shades
The face looks okay. The body looks burnt. Put them together, and all you create is confusion.

#56 She’s glowing
Maybe it will look right shining out in a dark club. In the light, it’s a little terrifying.

#62 Too far
There’s a time and a place for adding a little makeup to your chest. There’s also an amount. This is far beyond that amount.

#69 The table
The makeup is okay. Maybe that’s why she’s putting up with being used as somewhere to leave the glitter.

Sometimes, we call makeup “plastered on.” In this case, we genuinely mean it.

#72 Too tuned
there is so much Facetune going on that we can’t even tell what she might have looked like. Is she real or just a figment of a pixel world?
