Bacteria grows EVERY where, even on those lip pencils, powder shadows, and lipsticks/lipglosses you apply. You'd be surprised how many germs are on your purse, on the cart at the grocery store, etc. If we spent our lives trying to avoid bacteria we'd have to rent a plastic bubble and live in it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with wearing them daily if they're a natural length/fullness. There was a girl who worked at AutoZone who would wear dramatic length or something like MUFEs lashes (below) all the time. But, I agree with you, especially when there's nothing else on the eyes----not even a liner and the lashes look like they've been on for a few days, complete with lint or some caked-up shit on the lashline.

Yeah I was referring to the dramatic ones that ppl dont take off for days at a time. I did a girls makeup and she said they had been on for a week. When I asked her about washing her face she just looked at me with a blank stare. ewwww

No Im talking about the almost blue, too cool, and makes u look like a corpse. And not everything looks good one everyone. If I wear c-thru by itself I look like tyrone biggums

Re: What kind of Make-up that makes you go EWWW or turns you off and why?
I have, for some unknown reason, a fear of lipstick on people of my own age group. I mean, I don't mind seeing it on women over 35 (in fact, it usually looks more appropriate than lip gloss) but it's a huge turn off when I see an 18-year-old wearing it.
Also, women who wear under-eye concealer that is much too light for them - I was in a bar recently and one of the waitresses had white circles under her eyes. Urrrgh...

actually, i commend people who do not wear makeup and let their natural features come through. Sure, makeup can be used to accentuate your features, but those that are confident in their natural beauty....man...i just wish i were like them

I don't like false lashes much...at least the kind in a strip. They look fake. I kinda like the individual ones you stick in there, but I don't know how to use either, lol.
Oh, and I'm guilty of drawn on brows, but I have to till they grow in. *blush*
Years ago, I was also guilty of the dark liner, light lipstick thing. My ex husband used to tell me that it made my mouth look like an asshole, lol.

Hmmm, This thread is harsh!
Props to older women who rock bright lipstick.
Here's what makes me go eeeeeeeew: Someone mentioned it earlier. If I am about to do a makeover and discover that the person has not washed their face or showered in two days. Am I your mama? No. Here's a wipe, I'll be right back. I'm sorry, but that's nasty. Hygiene is a personal thing and if someone wants to not bathe, that is their business, but I just don't think it's courteous to come in and think I am gonna wash your face for you when it's crusted and smelly with the aftermath of last night's club adventures.

Re: What kind of Make-up that makes you go EWWW or turns you off and why?
Hmmm.. This thread really is harshhh!! I don't have much pet peeves really, except for the foundation thing. It's so sad, there's actually a MA at my MAC store.. Yes, I said MAC.. And her face looks soo cakeyy!!.. And if you look closer, you can see she has acne, so she's obviously trying to cover up the marks and whatnot.. But still!!.. If I EVER have to go for a makeover.. I'm definiately NOT going by her.. She is sweet though.
There's also this girl that I know that goes heavy on the eyes, heavy on the lips AND heaby on the blush. Her blush starts from her cheekbones and go all the way back to her hairline.. I know I do that sometimes.. But TRUST me, if you see this.. And she wears like deep red, bright pink and orange blush!! And her lips.. Eeeeewwww.. To me is seems like she matches her lips to the blush she's wearing.. Red with red, fuschia with fuschia and orange with orange. I've seen her apply makeup actually.. First she uses lip balm, then liner, then about 4/5 coats of lipstick and then 4/5 coats of blush in the same colour as the lipstick.. I swearrr.. It's sickening sometimes!!
Then there's another one who wears the same colour eyeshadow from her lids all the way up to her brow bonee!!.. And her blush is reallly light pink!! These are the jus an example of them.. I had to edit them a bit.. Didn't wanna show her face.. Sorry they're so teeny!!

I prefer it if people match those two to be honest. Or if they at least match undertones of their blush and lipstick.
I always try to use peachy blush with my coral lipsticks and a pink blush with my pink lipsticks.

That's probably a double edge sword for her, though. Those lights are harsh, a less makeup probably wouldn't do much good as far as coverage goes. She might even have people complain she's not wearing enough. Maybe she could practice blending it a bit better, but sometimes it takes A LOT to adjust to those lights and then EVERYONE is looking at your makeup with a critical eye, and if you have skin challenges, it has to be frustrating. Shoot, maybe her manager told her to pack on more.

I understand what you're saying.. But I've seen your FOTDs.. You are stunning.. I think it's something you need to see in person.. I'd link a pic.. But you'd have to see her face and I prefer to not do that.. Maybe she packs it on too much? I can't put my finger on what it is that I don't like.. All I know is that it irks me..

Oooh. I never thought of it this way.. And come to think of it, that's probably the only thing I don't like about her makeup.. Everything is flawless and she's really helpful and knowledgeable.

Oh u lemme know when the the world/society isn't superficial.
All the dumb "experiments" they have on tv where a slovenly woman with bad skin ARE treated different than made up women.
I think that when u look good u feel good. Makeup helps with that. I believe in taking pride in your appearance also, and guess what.. makeup can help again.
The billions a yr that are spent on makeup/beauty products doesnt prove me wrong though...
BTW U damn right I'm superficial BUT bottom line ppl look better with makeup IMO.
