If you've ever invested a good hour standing in front of your bathroom mirror applying makeup, only to be dismayed by the lackluster results ("Where did I go wrong?" you might have wondered), well, then you're in the right spot. The truth is that many of us are guilty of a few makeup mistakes. While we're not here to give you hard and fast rules — makeup is supposed to be fun, after all — sometimes half the fun is mastering the art.

We reached out to a couple makeup artists who were glad to share some of the most common makeup mishaps — like making your eyes look droopy with a downward cat eye flick, or overdoing it on the foundation front. They even explained how to fix them — so heed their words!
