Makeup can enhance your beauty, but it can also go wrong. Everyone makes a blunder with makeup from time to time. We all prefer to hide in a corner when we see old makeup looks of ourselves, right? That’s why we’ve written down the most common mistakes. So you don’t make the same mistakes we did.

1. Foundation fail
A classic fail: the wrong foundation color. Using a foundation that is too light or too dark can give you the so-called ‘pancake effect’. Luckily, this can be avoided. When testing a foundation, do it on your jawline. Your cheeks may be a bit redder than usual, and if you apply your foundation there, it won’t blend with your neck. By testing it on your jawline, you can see right away if it matches your face and neck.

2. Lots of lipliner
If you aren’t blessed with full lips, lipliner can be a great solution. This product can complete your look, but it can also go completely wrong. Make sure to create a subtle line around your own lips. If you make it too thick or harsh, it looks very unnatural and even odd. Always blend your lipliner after applying it to keep it looking natural.

3. Too much glow
The same goes for highlighter. When applied correctly, it’s the best product ever. But if too much is applied or the highlighter is placed too far forward, it can look strange. Then the natural glow you want can accidentally be replaced by an odd shine. Still looking for your perfect highlighter? Get them here for just one euro.

4. Half eyebrows
Eyebrows are more important than ever these days. There’s an investment in good brow powders and gels, but sometimes things go wrong while tweezing. Sometimes you accidentally tweeze too much, and unfortunately, it takes a while for the hairs to grow back. Remember that your natural eyebrow shape is the most beautiful and suits you best. So always stay close to your own shape and don’t remove too much.

5. Skincare is key

Unfortunately, skincare is still often forgotten, even though it’s so important. Skincare is the foundation for your makeup and completely determines how your makeup will look. Use a primer and a moisturizer when you start applying your makeup. Choose a day and night cream that suits your skin. And don’t forget to always remove your makeup in the evening.
