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

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

so did you apply your foundation and then draw on your face with a highlighter pen? you might want to put some antihystamine cream on the rash to help if go down, or take some piriton tablets

Although you have to be 17 to visit this site, I'm sure lots of OP's are under the minimum age, such as this OP. In that case YDI still...

There is also a section in Seventeen called "what guys really think of your body" with a box titled "LESS IS MORE!" (sorry for the capitalization seeming odd, I'm just typing it out the way it is typed in the magazine). In it, the guy talks about how "the attention [his friend] gets from guys has nothing to do with the changes she makes and has everything to do with how aesome (and genuinely naturally pretty) she has been all along." Maybe you should stop taking advice from the girls in the makeup columns (I personally never do since I don't wear makeup) and start listening to the nice guys out there--they'll like you without any foundation, which means you can avoid little mess-ups like this. :)

Disclaimer so I don't get flamed about being hypocritical by saying that I don't wear makeup but have it on in my profile pic: A friend of mine does photo-shoots, which is the only time that I wear any. I never put makeup on myself for casual use or even for nicer events. Au naturale all the way, unless you're doing an awesome Egyptian photo shoot with friends! ;D

And now the above statement doesn't matter, since I changed my pic. >_> Sorry for any confusion :D

Stfu Makeup is my best friend :P Unfortunately as I began to read this, I also thought that Highlighter was actual highlighter, but quickly figured out otherwise. Making that mistake is acceptable when reading...but seriously somewhere down the line while actually trying this, you must've realized something's wrong.

However in my case, I look like absolute crap 'au-naturel' and I feel extremely satisfied with myself when I'm in makeup. To me I think boys don't really care how much makeup a girl wears, as long as she feels confident that way and the end result is relatively pretty. Some people need more than others, and those who don't need much...I'm tempted to call them lucky, but to be honest, I'm fine with my need of it :D

That is retarded. What is wrong, with not only you for falling for that, but Seventeen for suggesting such a dumb thing? :

umm....seventeen was definitely NOT suggesting she put the ******* ink from a highlighter pen in with her foundation to make her glow, you moron. she didn't "fall" for anything, she's just a retard. highlighter is an actual MAKE UP product
