In our modern world where trends go viral in a matter of a day (thanks to social media), we have lots of fashion trends and makeup trends that we can check out on social media, some of which are very questionable in how they even became beauty trends. As a girl who moderately likes makeup, I have explored some famous Instagram makeup bloggers and beauty accounts and have found some of the most unnatural and ugly trends. And they. Need. To. Go.
1. Wavy Brows
First thing I thought when I saw this is….why? Is this art? Is this pretty? Is this fun to put on? Whatever it is, it looks painted on a person's face, and it needs to go because this is one of the most unnatural things I have seen on someone's face.
2. Feather Brows
Following up the wavy brows, this one is just as bad. You purposefully separate your brow hair in two opposite directions, to make it look like a feather. Our brows are not feathers. I repeat, our brows are NOT feathers. 3. Faux Freckles
Now, this is exactly the opposite of "Love what you are." If you're born with freckles, you're beautiful. If you're born without freckles, you're still beautiful. And you don't need to put faux freckles on your face just so you can have pretend freckles.
4. Overrated Plump Lip
Okay, I get that Kylie Jenner has made some of us obsessed with the plump lips, but it's just too much. I know that there are millions of tutorial videos on how to make your lips look plump, but honestly, sometimes it just looks unnatural, like the photo above. And remember the Kylie Jenner Lip Challenge that went viral in 2015 when many people ended up with painful, swollen lips? Yeah, that just says it all.
5. Cheetos Bronzer
I don't know how this even became a trend, but it is. I have seen many girls who have too much bronzer on their faces and they end up looking too brown/orange for their skin colour, but this bronzer is orange. Let's just stick to the snacks, please.
