Beauty Pet Peeves 2

[veronika23]

The other thread was getting too long and difficult to load! 

So what are your beauty pet peeves? What grinds your gears? Share your stories!!!

[heartsmyface]

Oh I really like the black chair!!!!   The fur is really appealing but looks impossible to clean my inevitable messes. @blushnglow Thank you!

@heartsmyface Pops of teal/blue are my favorite! The stool is very cozy, but the rest of the decor is sleek and modern. Maybe try incorporating that color somewhere else in the room to tie the piece in. And you've done a great job with the space so far 😀

[heartsmyface]

@RGbrown Art is a good idea.  Some teal blue lips on a frame of something... Or I can just banish this to a guest room and try again. I'm not good at matching furniture.

@heartsmyface I love that stool!!!! I'd veer toward keeping it and raising the eye level by adding more pops of color round the room. That way the eye bounces all over the space. But this is just my thoughts and I enjoy randomization over complete uniformity.

[RGbrown]

@heartsmyface

Its a lovely stool! I think tying that color into a couple more things would make it right at home...perhaps some art on the walls, or maybe wall shelves with a few similarly-toned knickknacks on them?

Or another route if you decide you just don't like it...a modern white (or black) leather stool would look incredible, imho...sleek and shiny just like those drawers! ☺️

This has been me every day this week lol. I need to go shopping 🛍💁🏻

[liv545]

@Mcakes Yes! Mine is in part due to the heat and not being able to wear layers as preferred. 

[heartsmyface]

Ha, this is me a lot!  I feel like I need a closet clean out and to get more classic pieces that go with everything. @Mcakes

[Mcakes]

Yes I am thinking the same @heartsmyface! I'm starting to understand why some people only wear black 😄

[unfungirl]

I think my biggest pet peeve right now is my eyelashes! Some grow upward, and some grow downward, so they look all crazy when I put on mascara. I also have a few on the outer corners of my eyes that have gone rogue. 

[sih100]

I have random hairs grow in my inner eye corner

[jozkid]

Me too, @sih100. I think it's the female version of men's hairs growing out of their ears.

I have random lash growth too, it makes putting on mascara an adventure for sure! Currently I am being driven batty by the random tiny lashes that grow in the inside corner of my eyes. All my eyeliner gets trapped in them and makes it look like I have dark eye boogers all the time! My husband is constantly trying to fish stuff out of the inside corner of my eyes but he just smudges my makeup 😕

[heartsmyface]

@unfungirl I have three eyelash hairs on my right eye that naturally point straight down. If they're particularly bothering me I'll apply a thin coat of mascara and then use a heated eyelash curler to set them where I want them.  It takes about thirty seconds which in the moment seems like a long time but it's not. When the mascara dries in the set position they stay put. 

[unfungirl]

@heartsmyface. Thanks for the tips! I will definitely try that. My eyelashes have always been sort of wonky, but ever since I started using Latisse they've gone nuts!

I remembered a pet peeve this morning. Basically, when you are applying makeup and a hair from your own head gets sort stuck across your face or eye or whatever and you can't seem to "find" it or brush it away without effort. I don't know why it's so annoying!

Or, when a hair gets stuck to the back of your shirt, and you can feel it brushing the back of your arm but can't find it and it keeps bugging you. The worst!

[liv545]

@sister13 oh my goodness!! Same! I do a little freak out dance when I feel a hair touching me. Like it's trapped or something. At night when I wear glasses it's especially frustrating because sometimes a hair will wind itself around them and when I rip my glasses off to swat at my face it pulls said hair out.

[heartsmyface]

Ugh that's the worst!  Especially bad if you've done full coverage and spot a hair embedded across your face in your makeup.  

Or when you get an itchy nose while your makeup is drying!  I try not to scratch by jabbing the itchy spot with my pinky nail but always seem to muss up the makeup:/ 

[unfungirl]

@sister13 ugh I hate the feeling of hair on the back of my neck or face! I have to shower after I get a haircut cos it makes me crazy.

[k617]

 OMG yes @sister13 that bothers me too. The worst is when it's one of my cats' hair, and it's so fine that I CANNOT see it. But it's ticking the inside of my nose or my cheek. Drives me nuts!

Newest pet peeve..

I enjoy writing reviews on products and posting them on the product page for others to use to determine whether they want to buy. And I 'get' that everyone has different things they are looking for in a product.. that face mask might have broke me out but left the next person radiant...

BUT, what grinds my beans is when I leave a very thorough step-by-step review of my experience with a product.. and someone votes it UNHELPFUL. 

Unhelpful? wtf. 

I think people are using the unhelpful button as the  DON'T AGREE button.
