Beauty Things I Suck At!

Morning love bugs!
 
The gorgeous Leah at http://www.painteddaisies.co.uk  has tagged me in this delightful little post...Beauty things I SUCK at! Oh, to name a few...in all honesty though, you're never gonna do something perfect first time and practice does make perfect. However, there are things that I just cannot do! No matter how many times I practice it, have a look below and let me know if you struggle with these things too in the comments : )

#1 - Liquid liner
I can never do the perfect winged cat eye. One eye is always perfect and the exact thickness I want, but the other eye ALWAYS decides to be difficult! But not only is the application of liquid liner a no-can-do in my book, on the odd occasion where it actually looks okay, my eyes always decide to run in the outer corners if they so much as get a blink of sunlight. Its an absolute pain in the bahookie! So my solution? Eyeshadow & a skinny brush! That's what I like to do to line my eyes, not only is it much easier to apply and doesn't make my eyes water but it looks amazing and gives off a really smokey effect.
 
#2 - Painting my nails on my right hand
Similar to one of Leah's answers, I honestly cannot do it. Its so difficult. I have an excuse though! My hands like to shake from time to time. I think it may have something to do with how much sugar I consume. I get shaky hands in the morning and sometimes after I've eaten later on in the day. I've never went to the doctors about it because my mum sometimes gets it too. But yeah, I think that reason contributes to the lack of precision I seem to have when painting the nails on my right hand.
 
#3 - Applying shimmer/glitter
When it comes to applying a slight shimmer on the lid, cheek bones or shoulder, I am THEE WORST person ever to be in charge. I absolutely LOVE glitter, so if you hand me a pot of the sparkly stuff I cannot be responsible for my actions. There is no such thing as a shimmer when I'm in charge. Whenever I do decide to apply a little sparkle I end up looking like a disco ball.
 
So that's about it guys, I think I am actually okay with regards to everything else. If I think of something or remember something I am really bad at, I'll add it to the post.
Let me know your beauty blunders in the comments below, I love reading them.

  5. I am the exact same with liquid liner, I do one eye perfectly and try to do the same on the other but it ends up looking completely different, so I try to change the other one and end up messing both up, haha!

  6. I'm terrible at winged eyeliner too, but I had a mac makeover and the MUA actually told me I had the wrong shaped eyes for a flick to look right anyway... result, I don't have to bother anymore!

    Thanks for sending over your link, followed!

    1. Really? I'm gonna have a wee nosey on your blog to see if I can find any pics of you to see if we have similar eyes! I bet that's why I cant do it! Or I might just be terrible at it ha ha!

  7. Love this post! I'm exactly the same with glitter. Not responsible for my actions >_<
    I did a post on winged liner! Probably not overly helpful with symmetry though :S
