Re: What kind of Make-up that makes you go EWWW or turns you off and why?
I'm sure I'm guilty of some of these - I often don't take the time to do real eyeliner and just sweep the darkest color I'm using along the lashline instead, but I do always wear mascara with it! Not always blush, though, as my cheeks tend to be rosy naturally and as pale as I am it's hard not to have blush look like "too much".
I also hate the dark lipliner/nude or light lip combo. Eww.
Dark blush = clown on most people.
Heavy black liner on waterline and lower lashline, only. A co-worker does this and it makes her eyes look droopy.
I like gothy makeup on some people, but the "mask" effect of the super-white face with darker rest of body is really unattractive. Make it match, please! (Or make it really obvious in a theatrical, intentional way.)
Not makeup, really, but long toenails and/or french pedicures REALLY gross me out. Like actual nausea.
My best friend's makeup sometimes makes me go "Eww!" In fact, other people have actually called me and asked "What the heck's up with her makeup?" She's obsessed with Bare Escentuals right now and won't wear anything else, which I don't have a problem with. The problem is that she usually applies her eyeshadow really heavily, and prefers dark colors. With her near-black hair, dark hazel eyes and ghost white skin, it can look really dramatic. EXCEPT - she also tends to put on blush heavily, and no matter how often and how MANY people tell her otherwise, she insists dark eyeshadow ONLY goes with dark lipstick. And this is for day, for working at a BANK.
She truly looks like a drag queen sometimes, and not a good one. I (and others) compliment her when she wears better (and lighter) makeup, but she's so proud of herself for doing makeup, and so sensitive that it's hard to offer criticism.
