Makeup is something that I have only recently gotten in to. Which means I feel like there is still so much for me to learn. As I use my blog and my Instagram to document what makeup I buy; I wanted to make it clear that I’m no expert. In fact I have definitely picked up some bad habits along the way, which I should probably work on getting out of…
This is Beauty Things I Suck At and Bad Habits.
Contour
Contour seems to be all of the rage at the minute, and I just can’t figure it out. No matter how many times I try it never looks right. I’m thinking that my bronzers may be too warm, so I’m going to invest in a cool toned shade and try again.
Eye Shadow
I have hooded eyes and find it really hard to create looks that compliment my eye shape. Don’t get me wrong I’ve seen a little bit of improvement, but I still have no idea what I’m doing. Let’s just say you won’t be seeing any extravagant eye looks on this blog. Even though I have discovered cream eyeshadow which has become a favourite.
Lip Liners
There isn’t a lot to say about this, as I don’t actually own a lip liner. I know, how can I call myself a beauty blogger? I’ve seen a lot of people rave about them, so I know that I should try one; and hopefully it will improve my lipstick application.
Eyebrows
I’ve never actually done anything to my brows, apart from tidying them up by plucking some stray hairs. I never joined the trend of extremely thin brows, and to be honest I don’t know what to do with them. As I attempted to fill them in a while ago, but it was a disaster.
Sticking to a Skincare Routine
Skincare is something that I’m still trying to get into, but I find it hard to stick to. I love using the Body Shop Vitamin E range, and find that it really works for my skin, but actually using them daily is hard work. Well for me anyway. As I have really dry skin I make sure that I moisturise regularly, but cleansing and toning often go out of the window.
Sleeping in Makeup
This may be the worst one on the list. Sleeping in makeup is really bad for your skin, and it’s a habit I need to get out of. Fortunately it doesn’t happen very often, it’s mainly after a late night and I wash it off as soon as I can.
There we have it, those are Beauty Things I Suck At and Bad Habits
Is there any beauty things that you suck at or do you have any bad habits?
Thank you for reading!




I'm hopeless at eye shadow! No matter how many tutorials I watch I just know I'm never going to create the perfect smokey eye!
I wish I could do liquid eye liner, practice makes perfect hey!

I totally suck at eyebrows, never really used to fill them in until sometime last year, and haven't found my perfect product yet. I'm gonna keep looking though!
Omg, I have literally the same contouring issues as you, I get so jealous when I see girls wearing bronze and having contoured their faces perfectly because I just can't make it look nice on me!

I also suck at contouring :/ practice makes perfect though!
When I was a teenager I used to sleep with my makeup on (out of laziness) no wonder I had such bad skin!!
