This is a spin-off of a YouTube video originally created by Gossmakeupartist on YouTube, titling, "What are your beauty regrets?"
So thus I decided to also answer this question.
Here are my top beauty regrets:
- Not putting sunscreen onto my face and body early on in life - before I got freckles on my face, and for not understanding sunscreen until I was halfway through college.
- Not developing a good skincare routine until I was halfway through college, nor understanding proper skincare until that time as well.
- Overdesquamating/exfoliating my face when I first developed acne in the 8th grade/9th grade.
- Listening to just hearsay and customer reviews rather than understanding the science of how skin really worked and how to take care of myself properly.
- Not getting enough sleep in middle and high school and thus developing very large dark circles as a result.
- Not eating enough beauty foods and focusing on junk foods. Especially during my younger years.
- Not understanding the concept of lotion and once using Listerine as a way to "cleanse" my skin. I ran that stuff over my skin for ~30 min. Argh it burns!
- Not being careful during cooking and thus having ultra-scarred hands.
- Overplucking my eyebrows and getting ridiculed at.
- Using Nair. So itchy!
- Using black eyeliner for a brow liner. Hello unibrow Godzilla!
- Not blending in my eyeshadow properly.
- Using a water-based mascara and not curling my eyelashes beforehand; hello raccoon eyes and watering eyes!
- Wearing the wrong shade of concealer (too light).
- Sleeping with makeup on (happens more rarely now)
- Cutting my nails too short (ouch!)
- Leaving on old nail polish for 4+ weeks (hello yellow tinge!)
- Not putting Mederma on my old scars.
- Picking at my cuticles.
- Hunching my back while studying - so bad!!!
So there you go. There are more regrets but these are the ones that come out the fastest. Do y'all have similar regrets?
