Let’s face it, we all don’t look absolutely picture-perfect every minute of our lives, but we also don’t have professional makeup teams that are paid to make us look flawless. And while most of these celebs look unrealistically beautiful most of the time, they still get caught with some pretty big (and hilarious) make-up “Uh ohs!” Check out some of worst celeb makeup looks and avoid these disasters for yourself:
Sometimes makeup looks fine in the mirror but awful under the bright light of the photographers’ cameras, which was a lesson Teresa Palmer had to learn the hard way when she turned up looking pasty at the Warm Bodies Premier:
It is pretty obvious that Teresa’s makeup artist was trying to make her eyes look brighter, but the powder-y, white make up could not escape the flashing of the cameras. This mistake is pretty disappointing because Teresa is so pretty and the rest of her makeup looks simple and sweet, but hopefully, next time we can see Teresa show off her great features at her next appearance.
It is no secret that Leighton Meester is gorgeous, but even she has her bad days, like this purple and red makeup mishap:
The first rule in make up is that if you are going for a dramatic eye makeup, then put away your boldly colored lipsticks and pick up a nude gloss instead. By combining red lipstick and over-the-top purple eye shadow, Leighton ends up looking more like a clown than the classy lady we all know she is. Just choose one next time!
Even Leighton looks like a princess compared to her former costar, Taylor Momsen, who ended up looking like bride of Frankenstein during her extremely edgy phase in 2010:
The former Gossip Girl was in the middle shaking her sweet Jenny persona and was not to concerned with looking classically pretty, despite being one of the prettiest girls in Hollywood. And this was definitely the worst of her makeup appearances. The fleshy-pink eyeshadow and grimy red-colored lipstick leave Taylor looking like a zombie bride and not a talented actress and musician. Taylor is still rocking edgy, rock-and-roll makeup nowadays, but it is nice to see that she left these atrocious colors and home in favor of ones that are still dramatic but at least look nice on her.

Nope. I love taylor momsen’s make up.
Plus she looks a lot prettier than everyone else.

I have to say, I loved Taylor Momsen’s make up too. I don’t like her as an actress,… but her make-up looks fantastic. She’s gorgeous.

To each their own, I suppose! For some reason I came here expecting really bad makeup, like mask-like appearance due to wrong foundation color.
guest
Yeah, sorry I like Taylor’s haha. Especially that eye shadow! The color looks amazing with her eyes. And its definitely not any worse than her makeup now. She wears enormous black circles around her eyes. How is that any better (by these standards)?
But Leighton, yikes!

Each of these women are beauties. I prefer to point out their beauty/attributes and not run anyone down.
Have a great day!

Man, you can accomplish pretty much anything these days but you will never get to forget that time you used too much bronzer.
I’m really sick of articles like this. Women are put down on their mistakes so much that they become terrified of even trying anymore. We need to stop belittling women and start looking at their accomplishments.

I think Taylor Momsens isn’t so bad… a little goth/vampire inspired and I am sure it’s supposed to look like that. A matter of taste, but not terribly done. The white under the eyes is sort of funny because evidently it’s just a mistake.

I think Taylor Momsen’s makeup looks intentional, works for her signature–but it’s not something most people can pull off.
But yeah, I’m sure if we see them in different lighting–they’re probably not as noticeable. Must be difficult for celebrity make-up artists to have to plan all those things out.
