Well you always look pretty in your photos so you do a really good job of camouflaging your flaws

I have oily and dry patches which can make it hard to apply foundation! And super thick, unruly eyebrows. I'm sure the eyebrow lady I go to dreads my appointments!

i have finicky skin that often needs coverup but manages to be dry and oily at the same time.... it's a PITA! also ever since coming off BC, i have weird hairs that pop up (yeah, i just admitted that! haha) and i had to start waxing my upper lip! it looks yucky to have foundation over fuzz. and certain lip products make me breakout around my mouth, ewwwww! basically i'm a beast & desperately wish i could be airbrushed on a daily basis. i'm seriously considering a home airbrush makeup machine!

I'm pale and finding the right shade of foundation is really hard! Also, I have light blonde, thin eyebrows and have to color them in - the colors are never an exact match either.

@LindsayInNY: me too! I am always envious of people who can walk into Sephora and just pick out a foundation themselves. I always need someone to help me color match.

My biggest complaint is how oily my skin is. My makeup always slides off and looks shiny. I am also very pale, so I have to be careful choosing foundations/blush/bronzer.

My lips are very full, so more often than not lip colour is a no no.

My skin is pretty dark and make up companies don't do a very good job of having appropriate shades.

@mrs. wagon: I have the same issues as you! I've heard the first one called a "hooded mono lid" and my eyebrow hairs don't grow in the same direction so I don't trust people to thread/wax them. I've had some horrific experiences where I came out looking ridiculous.

I don't wear any liner/shadow because I don't know how to deal with my mono lid Whenever I try, I always end up with a really uneven line because I just don't know how to do it!

I seem to have really oily lids too because waterproof mascara still smudges on me.

I have blonde eyebrows, but brown hair - so I tint them and use light pencil.
I also have short, light, eyelashes so mascara (and sometimes fake lashes) are my friend.
I also have dark circles under my eyes, so I use concealer, but then it shows wrinkles, so I can't win.
Ack!

@Littlebit: This is me, exactly. Especially since coming off of BCP - grease ball city!

I have dark circles under my eyes that make me look exhausted all the time if I don't use the right concealer. I am also pale but have yellow undertones and have a problem finding the right foundation because they often look too "pink" on my skin.

Blotchy skin (thank you, pregnancy), dark circles (thank you, infants) and zero eyelashes. Ugh.

My eyebrows are curly and have random blond hairs. If I don't keep a constant vigil I look like a crazy professor in a matter of hours.

@rachiecakes: I have a similar problem with eyelashes in that the tips are blonde so mascara is not optional!

I'm super pale so make up looks over done on me, except mascara.

I have terribly oily eye area so I'll end up looking like a raccoon if I'm not careful with my eye makeup. My brows are a mess because I used to over pluck them.

@mrskc: me too. I have to reapply the full face routine if I want it to last all day because y skin is oily:/
Have you tried "shine killer" primer by nyx? It helps a ton!

I have oily eyelids!

I have awesome combo skin that is dry and oily at the same time.
If I dont stay on them, I get crazy bushman eyebrows.
I have massive dark undereye circles.
I have a giant scar on my chin from an accident when I was a kid.

I have a crease, but it gets enveloped by my eye lid. I have to apply eyeliner to only the ends of my eye or else when I blink, eyeliner will transfer over to my eyelid. But it's usually not a problem since I only apply a very thin line that gets a little thicker the farther out it is. If I try to line my eyes all the way around, I look kind of frightening, so it was never an option to begin with.

I have the puniest lashes. If I apply mascara, it usually rubs off on my poofy ass top lid. If I try to apply fake lashes, it's really tricky, again, cause my eye lids are poofy.

I also have a very obvious crease on ends of my lower lids. It's not really a crease, but looks kind of like a straight gash, but it has faded with time. When I was a kid, it was really obvious. Anyway, said gash accumulates tear marks. And I don't even have to be crying, I can just be yawning and the tiny bit of moisture sits on that little lower ledge of my bottom lid and crusts over. It wrecks havoc on any eyeliner I have on.

But all of this isn't an issue anymore since I only wear make up on special occasions
