People Who Broke The Internet With Their Beauty Fails

Trying to look nice is actually really difficult when it comes down to it. You have to get cleaned up, wear nice clothes, do your hair, maybe even do your makeup, and hope that it all turns out for the best.

A lot of the time, it does it turn out well, but for those times when it doesn’t, thank goodness we have social media.

She Looks Horrified

I would be horrified, too, if all my eyelashes came off an eyelash curler like that. What if they never grow back the same way?

Just stick to the mascara next time.

He Knows That It’s Bad

Just because your girlfriend is good at doing her own hair doesn’t mean that she’s going to be any good at doing yours, OK?

I think the lesson here is learned.

She Needs To Go To The Salon

Some people aren’t good at everything, and that’s OK! Maybe she’s great at doing her makeup and hair, but nails just aren’t her thing.

That’s totally fine. Luckily, there are people in the world who are good at it.

That’s Quite Rude

I thought that her shirt was telling people that they are a turd.

In reality, it says “Saturday” and just takes on a whole other attitude when you put a sweater on.

She Blended Those In Well

Look, extensions are hard, OK? They’re just one of those things that you shouldn’t really do on your own at home.

Leave them to the professionals. They’re too difficult to get right.

What Is Going On Here?

Wow. I’m not really too sure what to say about this look.

Is it that the makeup on her face is way too nice, or do you think she spray-tanned her body too much, or both?

Because That Doesn’t Defeat The Purpose At All

I get trying to make masks more appealing to people and less of an annoyance, but putting a hole in it is so dumb.

People can just wait to have their drinks when they get home.

What A Beautiful Tattoo

I’m not usually one to say “don’t you know that tattoos are forever?”

But this might the exception to that rule because this is just something else all on its own.

She Looks So Oily

I feel like this is what happens when you try and get that dewy look and it goes all wrong.

Like…she looks like she just got home from the gym or a really long swim.

Yeah…The Power Of Scariness

Seeing the pictures side by side really drives home how much of a clown she looks like with her makeup done like that.

She doesn’t need that much! It’s scary!

My Dad Could Do Makeup Better Than This

This Reddit user explained that their little sister got her makeup done for a birthday party because she wanted to treat herself.

Sadly, this was the look that she ended up with, and to make things worse, it cost 60 euros, which is around 70 US dollars.

Is That An Oompa Loompa?

Her face is SO orange and it looks even more orange with her skinny, pale arm next to her head.

I appreciate the dedication that went into doing her whole neck, though.

The Ultimate Perv Test

This might be the perfect dress to wear when you’re on a date to see if they make a joke about it.

And if they do, just write them off.

Blue Is Really Her Color

Note to self: if you dye your hair a fancy color, don’t do it at home.

And if you’re going to do it at home, try and protect your face.

Who Would Buy This?

You would think that at any part in this bag being made, they would have taken out the part that says “sample text” over and over?

It isn’t a cute look.

What Is Going On Here?

Did she draw on her hair with a Sharpie marker before leaving the house?

People are allowed to be into different things, but this looks kind of like wet tarmac.

Are These A New Kind Of Cowboy Boot?

This is the kind of cowboy boot you wear if you like that Western chic style, but from the perspective of the horse.

I’m just kidding, that doesn’t even make sense.

Always Watching

Instead of forgetting her wallet or passport on the plane like a normal person, some poor woman lost her eyelashes.

Perhaps she just got sick of having those huge caterpillars on her face.

Winnie The Pooh Has An Only Fans

The person who made these had to know, because they even went so far as to wear a red shirt.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to look like a sexy Winnie the Pooh.

This…unfortunate dress

Now why would you buy anything that GIVES you a wedgie? Am I missing something and having fabric uncomfortably shoved there is now suddenly in fashion?

Somehow the way they’re posing this dress like there’s not a problem makes it worse.

Are They On Fleek?

I can only hope that this is a joke, because those eyebrows are not on fleek, no matter what anyone says.

They look goopy and like she should be in a cartoon.

Her Face…She’s Devastated

She could not be more upset than she is. Is it the curls, or is it the bangs?

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the combo of both.

Staying At Home For The Foreseeable Future

This is why no one should do those at-home beauty treatments.

There might be some science to them, but they never really work out the way that you want them to.

“Close Enough”

These makeup gurus on YouTube are out here completely flexing on us with their skills while we’re pausing and rewinding the video ten times just to catch what lip liner they used.

In the end, you’re so emotionally drained you don’t even care if you nailed the “unicorn frappuccino” eye look or not.

Some Editing Needed

The issue here is that it’s not just the tan that’s orange (as that happens to the best of us).

But the contour, the eyeshadow, and even the hair elastic are also orange?

Channeling Her Inner Snooki

One makeup artist decided to give a younger client a full-on face of makeup, and post it on her Instagram for the world to see.

As you can tell by the caption, this little girl is only eleven years old. Someone call up Toddlers In Tiaras, because we may have a new pagent queen on our hands.

Just A Bit

Highlighter is marketed as being for the features you want to “stand out,” so people usually tell you to stick to the cheekbones, eyebrow bone, nose bridge, and cupid’s bow.

But when you’re a beautiful goddess, you’re going to put it everywhere because you want to stand out, okay?

Brows Are Supposed To FRAME The Face

Although most would say that this is an unusual look, you have to command it for its precision.

She mostly mirrored drawing both the left and right eyebrows. Plus, the smokey eye is well done and that’s hard to do.

Beauty Is Pain (And Embarrassment)

Kylie Jenner might have made big lips a thing, but I can promise you it’s not worth it.

Now this girl has to walk around with hickey lips just because she tried to attain a false sense of beauty.

Never Giving Up My Lipstick, Even When This Happens

Do I recognize that there is literally no reason to wear lipstick during these times because no one can even see it? Yes. Am I putting on my favorite shade every day anyway? Also, yes.

This isn’t a fail, it just shows how much I care.

The Mess Is Part Of The Art

Let’s face it, the bathroom you do your makeup in is always a mess. Brushes, powders, and liquids everywhere.

Just be happy it isn’t as bad as this poor woman who had her foundation explode in a marble bathroom.

Anything Goes…

We’ve gone too far. Humanity has taken the simple concept of making our brows fleek and extended it beyond what we could ever imagine.

We, as a society, have to go back. (But not as far back at the 2001 pencil-thin brows).

Not Just Regular People

Oops, not red carpet ready.

Angelina Jolie’s makeup artist either forgot to sweep off that extra baking powder (not baking powder— powder for baking your face… you get it) or that product is super reflective.

When “Find The Right Shade” Doesn’t Happen

Here’s a hot tip: do not trust the lighting in Sephora. Step out of the store to make sure that your chosen foundation actually matches your face color.

No amount of blending could ever make this situation better.

Aaaaaack!

“Fake eyelashes r cool. Too bad I just tore them.” Ugh, we feel this one.

But we have to admit that we feel just a little better about ourselves if someone this dedicated to beauty messes up every now and then.

Well, She Tried…

This girl took several concepts that are important for anyone who wants to become a makeup pro to learn… and then took them to a level they never should have reached.

We just have to hope that this was a joke, because we’d hate to think someone would actually leave the house thinking this looks good.

Those Are Some… Issues

Poor LiLo. Hopefully, she’s figured things out in the years since this photo was taken.

After all, no one deserves dealing with her makeup looking this rough on top of any other troubles!

Um, Leave The Baby Out Of It

Like mother, like daughter! This rite of passage is so sweet! Ugh, just kidding. What could possibly compel a person to do this to their own child?

The Orange Look Doesn’t Work On Anyone

We just noticed the fact that her eyebrows are nonexistent. Sorry, we were a little distracted by that tan… and the bright lips… and those eyes. Yikes.

Maybe this was a Jersey Shore costume from a few years back.

A Special Look For Prom

We’ve seen worse looks on this list, but that doesn’t mean we should lower our standards. We have to wonder one thing, though.

Did she do this herself or did a really bad makeup artist “help” her with her special prom look?

Thicker Brows Are In, But…

So thicker brows are definitely a hot look! She almost got it right.

To her credit, she knew to brush her eyebrows up, but she forgot to follow up with brushing them out and now her brows just look like fur.

Less Is More? No One Told This Person

Why have only two eyebrows when you could have four? That’s exactly what this person went for with this interesting makeup look.

Unfortunately, that childhood task doesn’t really translate well to applying makeup. Just a word to the wise.
