I was so embarrased when my false eyelashes starting coming off at a party…very unattractive.

While fixing my makeup in the bathroom at a wedding I was attending, I accidentally grabbed my bright red lip liner instead of eyeliner.  I was in such a hurry, I had one eye done before it registered.  Since I didn’t have any makeup remover, I tried to wipe it off and cover it with black eyeliner, but ended up spending the evening convincing people that I didn’t have pink eye.

I once had a job interviewer tell me discreetly that my foundation needed to be blended.  In my haste to be on time and to find the location, I did a cursory job on the makeup!

My most embarrassing beauty moment is that the firs (and last time) i went to get a wax i acutally bled.  I guess the hair had not grown out enough from the last time i had shaved and the lady thought that waxing the same areas multiple times would help…Needless to say i wanted to cry and i was in extreme pain on th walk home. I am too afraid to wax again!

fortunately no real embarrassing events, but i have fallen victim to the foundation line from my chin to neck years ago before i found mineral makeup (in the right shade, no less!).

My hair is naturally very dry and curly.  I spent years fighting it.  In middle school, I tried mayonnaise as a deep conditioning treatment.  However, just rinsing my hair didn’t get the smell out.  I walked around an entire day at school smelling like the stuff.  To this day, the smell of mayonnaise makes me gag.

My most embarrassing beauty moment was when I went in for a brow waxing appointment while in college.  I called and made an appointment for a waxing and when I got there I was asked to lay down on the table and to prepare for the waxing.  The lady left the room and I took off my glasses.  She returned and laughed and told me to again prepare for the waxing and pointed to a robe. So silly me I put the robe on over my shirt and shorts.  The lady returned and laughed harder this time and told me to take off my clothes.  I told her that I would report her and left the room scared and went to the front desk to complain about being asked to remove my clothes for a brow wax.  They snickered and let me know that I had made a bikini waxing appointment not a brow.

I use fake lashes.One time I put them on the table next to my sunglasses.Next day I went to lunch date.Guess what…My fake lashes stick to sunglasses and i was wearing them all day.I was very embarassed.

I would love to have this!

While wearing light colored pants, i sat on a tube of red lip gloss.  To make it worse, I had no way of covering it up from the building to the parking lot

one time i had a dull razor and ended up with many cuts all over my legs:( that was painful and embarrasing

My most embarrassing beauty moment: I walked out the door with lips lined with red lipliner…totally forgot to put on my lipstick!

After I finished a job interview, I walked in to use the restroom, where I discovered that I had only put mascara on one eye.  I have blonde eyelashes, so it looked like I was leering at somebody all day.  (Still got the job thank god)

When I was younger, I didn’t know how to plunk my brows. So I did a horrible job at it.

I haven’t had any embarrassing moments lately, but when I was 6 I had to go to school with white Cortisone cream all over my face (because it was itchy) and that was embarrassing.

I was at lunch with a friend once and was digging through my purse to find lipliner.  I started to put it on somewhat discreetly at the table and she said, “What are you doing?”  I asked what was wrong and she said my lips were black.  I had used black eyeliner instead of the lip liner!!  Ooops!

I was in the mall and they were doing free makeovers with mineral makeup. I let a young girl who apparently was new do my makeover. I rushed away before looking in the mirror at the makeover because I was late to meet my husband in a store. While walking through the mall I noticed people starring, when I got to the store where my husband was he asked, “WHAT HAPPEN TO YOUR FACE?”. I pulled my compact from my purse to see what he meant, I looked like a clown. The makeup was horrible—the colors were totally wrong for my completion. I have not worn mineral makeup since.

I waxed off half an eyebrow once.

Oops.

no beauty moment- but last year i had one of those fancy victoria’s secret no seam bras snap on me while i was at work—there was no way to reattach the strap since it had no seams, and in all my genius, i stapled my bra back together to get through the day! ughhhhhh

For my first waxing experienece, trying to save money i bought a home waxing kit from walmart. The instructions said to apply the wax in the direction of hair growth but i could not figure out what that was. I just applied the wax, put on the strip and pulled. All I remembered is seeing stars and screaming from the pain and i laid down on the floor. My roommate walked in to see what was wrong as i explained to her (half naked on the floor) that i must have waxed off all my hair in one pull because my skin was burning. When we looked down at the waxing strip there were only 3 hairs on it. very embarrasing.

I looked in the mirror and noticed that I had some stray hairs on my upper lip and knew I had no time to get waxed before a party I was heading out to so I applied some of the hair removal depilatory cream I usually used on my legs.  BIG MISTAKE.  The cream was too strong for my face and ending up leaving little burn marks along my upper lip.  SO EMBARRASSING!!  I had to attend the party in such a state because it was an engagement party for a very close friend.  Luckily, I used Mederma afterwards and so no permanent damage done but I refused to be in any pictures at that party.

Great blog—I’ve been following it for a while, but it’s particularly timely now.  Happy holidays!

One time in college, I was blithely sitting on my boyfriend’s couch in shorts, when I noticed one of his female friends staring at my thighs in horror.  Only then did I realize that I had an obvious bruise on each of my inner thighs, apparently from the vigorously athletic (but utterly non-violent) activities my boyfriend and I had engaged in the night before.

not exactly a beauty moment…but i ended up in the emergency room during my last semester of college because i fell off my apartment stoop and severely sprained my ankle…and my ex-boyfriend’s best friend drove me to the hospital. i had been VERY lazy with shaving my legs and i was mortified when the doctor hiked up my pant leg and revealed my hairiness in all its glory in front of this kid…ahhhh i’m still so horrified!

Running into my ex NOT wearing any makeup…and sweats!

My most embarrassing beauty moment was probably when I first tried to do the “smokey eye” look, and I ended up with flecks of black eyeshadow and liner all down my cheeks all night long… it was horrible. I stick to the “natural” look now :)
