Overdrawn Eyebrows
Overlined Lips

Fuller-looking lips can be attained without an abundance of lipliner. Instead of overlining and exaggerating your mouth, opt for a more subtle way to plump your pout. Dabbing gloss in the center of your lips allows them to appear fuller!
Excessive Highlighter
Unblended Eyeshadow
Matte Lipsticks
Full-Coverage Foundation
Heavily Contoured Makeup

Kim Kardashian is the queen of contour. She’s created countless tutorials to teach us how to enhance our features and sculpt our faces. But is this beauty trend coming to an end? Honestly, I hope so. Just google “contouring gone wrong.” Let’s leave this technique to the beauty gurus.

Hairspray as Setting Spray

Hairspray should never be used as setting spray, which is why we need to put an end to this damaging makeup “hack.” Hairspray contains harsh ingredients that will leave skin dry and irritated. To avoid discomfort, trade your hairspray for a true setting spray. Urban Decay All Nighter Long Lasting setting spray and Elf Matte Magic Mist and Set setting spray are fan favorites.

Squiggle Brows

I’m still not able to understand this bizarre beauty trend. Squiggle brows are exactly what they sound like—a makeup optical illusion that transforms arched brows into squiggles. My advice is to ditch the editing apps and leave the brows alone.
Oversized False Lashes
Chunky Mascara
Thick Eyeliner
Too Much Bronzer
Bold Eyes AND Lips
Omitting Primer

If you believe makeup primer is unnecessary, do I have news for you! The omittance of this crucial beauty product is ruining your makeup routine. Primer is a beauty trend you should be following. It helps makeup go on smoother and last longer—and not to mention it hydrates, brightens, and evens skin tone.
Over-Powdering
Too-Dark Lipliner

This may have been a trend in the ‘90s, but it’s not anymore. Choose a lip liner that matches your lipstick, not a lip liner that’s multiple shades darker. When your lip liner complements your lipstick, you can use it to color in your entire lip—allowing your lipstick to blend better and last longer.
