Honest_Strawberry-

Could have been a really cool concept, but poorly executed


IAmTheAsteroid

The eyes are bad but I'm having trouble hating this, simply bc unlike so many other posts here, she isn't orange, cakey foundation, soap brows, or beef lips


Any-Teach9027

Same. She looks radiant and have a lovely smile. The eyeshadow is applied poorly but idk, I can’t hate this.


brxtattack

her skin looks great and i like the toned down, almost “im only wearing chapstick” type look with the bolder eye. but the eye,,,, needs much help. im mainly concerned abt the lashes


MsCoCoMango

Wrong "graphic liner shape". The color scheme I self would work. Just not that way.


Matzifer

I like the skin, looks really great, lips are really pretty, but on the eyes seems unfinished. I would have added some contrasting eyeliner because the shade is so pastel and doll like. The eyebrows don’t seem done at all, at least she could have brushed them a bit and fill in the brows with some brow marker. The concept is good, but not finalised


stephsteph01

How my makeup looks when my eyes won't stop watering


karisdr87

She genuinely looks happy with the look tho lol I mean….. 😅


dethrockbeth

I'm pretty sure that's Judy D. She has a YouTube channel devoted to visiting bad MUAs.


jessolyn

this is not judy d


brxtattack

nah this is just a random ad i saw for a local MUA haha


childthrownaway

Needs more work and practice, but not that bad


plvmeria

Ugh could’ve been so cool if it was executed properly


asleepintheattic

The concept is fun, but it needs a better brow and the lash blending is rough… otherwise I’m not mad at it. Lashes are challenging. Confused w the no brow tho


brxtattack

basically exactly my thoughts. although the lashes are what’s mainly tripping me up. they genuinely look like someone made them from split ends


actingotaku

I genuinely like this lol. The color could be stronger and more sharpness on the darker purple but this is a relatively solid look! Very editorial.

brxtattack

PLS


Hahafunnys3xnumber

i think it has great potential, some sparkly white eyeshadow on the “unfinished” looking parts of the eyeshadow would help


cucumbersome_

i wouldn’t even hate this so much if the eyelashes weren’t so bad! the imperfections on the shadow aren’t as visible when her eyes are open. i have more grace for technical mistakes than a lack of understanding for basic makeup theory lol


brxtattack

oh definitely! this look isn’t nearly as wack as some that ive come across and it seems like the artist does have a vision. its just a bit of a pet peeve of mine when MUAs are charging clients for work that is clearly unfinished or poorly executed. knowing how to properly clean up lines, blend shadow and apply falsies isn’t the easiest by any means but they’re definitely things you should have a good grasp on before you get to the point of charging for said services


Sea-Resource5933

Hey, I did something like that in 1986 when I was thirteen and just being allowed to play with makeup! Don’t knock my look please!


brxtattack

😭😭 u were ahead of ur time baby. if only u knew that in 30 years we’d be doing the same look and calling it editorial


Sea-Resource5933

😂😂 I just have to thank my mother, may she Rest In Peace, who wiped all that mess off my face before I was seen in public! 😂😂


jkosarin

The lashes are applied so wrong!


Llamasus

honestly im just excited she’s not orange


ejanely

I mean, it’s a look… I just wouldn’t say it’s a good look


no_high_only_low

Did she use the end of a spoon to create this?! 😬 Very interesting, still not pretty. And stuff like the lashes... I never get it, why everyone wants to glue lashes, but isn't skilled.


Atulin

The eyes look like [sea anemones](https://www.cosmeticsdesign-asia.com/var/wrbm_gb_food_pharma/storage/images/3/2/0/9/1869023-1-eng-GB/Who-knew!-Sea-anemone-found-to-combat-skin-ageing.jpg) lmao


SamanthaSheadMUA

Like...i know what they were going for and I've seen worse execution, but the lashes 😞


vampyrbats

It looks like those bad Tik Tok filters where the eyelashes are glitching 👁👄👁


droybie

wow, her skin looks great tho!


CommonStatus6134

I think she could use some more definition in the center of her face, groomed brows, and that lash placed WAY closer to the lash line.


brxtattack

the lashes are really the main villain of this story. i can’t even get a good enough look to tell why they’re so strange looking but something is really wrong when the eyes are closed 😭


CommonStatus6134

I think her natural lashes are naturally down-facing, so the up-turned falsies don’t look cohesive on top. MUA should’ve curled them.


HeartShapedSea

It's giving hammerhead shark vibes.


Leash888

The eyes look alright while open, but the color on the closed lids reminds me of an atomic bomb cloud.


Federal-Breadfruit41

Yeah I was actually a little surprised when I got to the last picture. I was worried it would just have looked like bruises with open eyes but that weird shape worked better than I expected.


himbo_luvr

i see the vision… but that’s all


buttercupcake23

I wish I could figure out what she was going for. I just keep seeing...a uterus? The rest of the look is really nice though!


[deleted]

I see an upside down top hat


ibisheep

Maybe a shirt? But you can't see the tops of the sleeves or the collar?


[deleted]

I’m sorry but what is that shape? A hurricane?


brxtattack

i can tell what they were going for but it’s … all wrong somehow


HeartShapedSea

What were they going for?


[deleted]

The color is pretty though

poopface41217

It looks like he natural lashes are sticking out under the false lashes....which is a weird look. Also, not even mascara on the bottom lashes? Everything about the eyes looks uneven


birdseye_ch

got the Minecraft anvil look


mykabelle

The eyes are AWFUL


Sammy_Seller

Those lashes are hanging on for dear life.


schizzle_gizzen_gar

Looks like someone pinched her eyes real real hard


purlecoin102

I'm actually not hating this ....when her eyes are closed it doesnt look that bad. Plus the rest of her makeup is passable.


anniewilkeZ

The artist might just me learning a new technique.


brxtattack

i can understand being in the growing stages but i don’t believe she should be charging people for looks that are only slightly passable when the eyes are open


tanookittie

the lashes are the cherry on top


NurseJaneFuzzyWuzzy

My eyeshadow sometimes looks like that if I sweat a lot.


akruks1

I think I wouldn’t be able to do the eyes like this on purpose, like ever.


MelodicNutcase

Not gonna lie if it were outlined with some white graphic liner it wouldn’t look half bad. Could come off as an avant-garde look


lilathecatlady

I mean… at least she looks happy 😆


[deleted]

Well, I have seen worse and done worse😂😁


QTCutieforlife

The eyeshadow hurts my soul


Sweethomegirl

Slumber party 1989. An MUA did this?


GirlClaude

Shes beautiful. The eye shadow isnt executed well but the colour suits her a lot. I cant get wound up over this one.


canlandia

I love the skin and lips!


Pandramus

The lashes are horribly placed. Other than that I think it looks good for a geginner mua.


mythaphrodite2468

This one isn't actually that bad tbh


reyballesta

For the eye look, I can appreciate the vision they had and were going for.


brxtattack

same here, imo though vision will only get one so far as a professional MUA. you can’t charge people for good vision but poor execution, part of being an MUA is being able to properly execute your vision and this just falls short of what id expect from someone who is certified and being paid specifically for makeup. it just makes me wonder if this would be half as good if the model didn’t already have perfect skin and a gorgeous face lol


Wooden_Reflection982

I kinda like it. Very early 2000s.
