1. Penis Eyeliner
Umm, what?? I don’t know if people got bored of seeing unicorn eyeliner or they wanted to take knife eyeliner up a notch and go a little more wild, but penis eyeliner just wasn’t cute. It takes some of us years of practice to perfectly wing our eyeliner, so drawing a penis on our eyelids just ain’t happening.
2. Face Full of Food Makeup Challenge
Candy bars are for eating while crying over three midterms, two papers, and massive all-nighter from the night before, NOT for contouring our faces. Sometimes makeup teaches us how to be resourceful and slay with what we’ve got on hand, but this feat can be described using another R-word: RIDICULOUS.
3. 100 Layers of Foundation
As someone who wears foundation on a daily basis, let me tell you, it can be expensive. Some of us will scrape the bottle until there’s nothing left to scrape just to avoid having to spend money on more at least until the end of the week. So, it’s especially painful to see all that foundation being used in one go. *cries*
4. As a Matter of Fact, 100 Layers of ANYTHING
One-hundred layers of liquid lipstick, false eyelashes, face mask, spray tan, and all the others are just 100 layers of NONSENSE. I don’t think anyone ever wants to see more than two coats of anything ever again.
5. Full Face Using Only Nail Polish Challenge
Let’s just pause for a moment to think about all the things that could have gone wrong with this…Gooey, drippy nail polish full of chemicals plus eyelids, eyebrows, and lips? I’m no Math major but I know this equates to trouble. My favorite part of this terrible idea was when people thought that removing everything using nail polish remover was an even better idea.
6. Full Face Using Only Glitter Challenge
Glitter is pretty on school supplies, nails, and unicorns. This makeup challenge just takes the power of glitter and uses it for anything but good. Tsk, tsk. tsk.
7. Chocolate Nails Ever wish you could always just have cake at your fingertips? This trend is basically the same thing. This feat brings new meaning to the phrase, “fingerlickin’ good” — depending on your definition of “good,” of course. Forget the nails, just take a spoon to a can of chocolate frosting and call it a day!
8. Fur Nails My first question about this (other than WHY?) is how terrible does this get when you need to wash your hands? It looks like someone snipped off chunks of hair from a cat’s tail and glued it to their nails.
9. Curling your Hair with Food
Putting Cheetos in our hair might’ve been adorable when we were two years old and also thought that our alphabet cereal was bath water, but ummm, we’re not two anymore so this kinda, sorta needs to go.
10. Full Face Using Anything in the Damn House Challenge
Cake mix as foundation? Windex as a zit zapper? Pro tip: when you start feeling a burning sensation from the Windex, splash some cool water on your face and you’ll be good to resume stupidity.
