Today, I was told by 'Seventeen' to add liquid highlighter to my foundation for an all-over glow. Little did I know that liquid highlighter is an actual makeup product. I now have an awful rash due to applying the ink from a highlighter pen. FML

Today, I woke up with a giant red rash all over my face, so puffed up that I could hardly open my eyes. The doctor said it was probably from some of the compounds found in most makeup. I'm just getting into theatre and have auditions coming up. FML

Today, my mom told me that my new concealer is way too dark and makes my skin look hideously orange and uneven. I wasn't wearing any makeup. FML

Today, I found out that the foundation I've been using for the past month isn't normal foundation, its skin darkening foundation. I look like an oompa loompa from the neck up. It won't go away for another month. FML

Today, I was following a makeup tutorial on YouTube. The girl said to apply concealer to any "problem areas" on my face. When I was done, 90% of my face was covered in concealer. FML

Today, I got a new skin cream for my acne. I tested it on a small patch of skin just to make sure I wasn't allergic. I was, and the reaction didn't stay on that small patch of skin. My left arm is now almost entirely covered in a horrible rash. FML

Today, I found an invisible ink pen. I drew on my arms, thinking nobody would see it. I had an allergic reaction to the ink, and I now have three very large, very visible, red penises on my forearm. FML

Skincare routine

Today, I thought I could make my own skincare products from scratch, but I ended up with a weird, greasy concoction, which left a red mark on my hands. It's been two hours and the mark is still there, despite several washes. FML

Today, I was really badly sunburnt, so I put on some after-sun. The only type we have has glitter in it, and now I look like a sparkling tomato. FML

Today, I realized how exhausted I was when I mixed up my eye makeup remover with toner. My eye still burns. FML

Today, I learned the hard way that my foundation shows up under a black light. At a black light party. No one told me until afterwards. Everyone took pictures. FML

did you really think it meant a highlighter pen? like seriously, why would you think an office supply can double as makeup?

Oh, sweetie, I also didn't know there was makeup called liquid highlighter, I suck at all things makeup-ey, but even I have enough sense to double-check and look it up first before smearing highlighter on my face. YDI but FYL at the same time. Hope that rash goes away soon! Hm. Imagine if OP used GREEN highlighter. Or yellow. Or orange. She'd be a live oompa-loompa!!

Wow, what's up with all the idiot OPs today? First the person who broke their laptop trying to balance it, now this? OP, you're an idiot. Don't breed. There's enough idiots in the world as is. I'd say your best bet is to not use make up. At least you won't have a nasty rash from using an office supply on your face...
