12+ Situations Only People Obsessed With Makeup Will Understand

If "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" then why some people seem to obsess about it so much? I get it, we all want to look our best as often as we can. Just try not to take it too seriously and just enjoy the ride.

And if you can't, know that there are plenty of other beauty fanatics out there that share your pain. Here are a few situations that might seem familiar to you.

1. Breaking it down for the guys.

Remember that time you tried explaining to your boyfriend the whole "heavy-makeup versus no-makeup look" and you desperately needed picture examples... only to realize there was no point?

2. The selfie doesn't lie.

When you seriously take that selfie obsession to the next level and never like any pictures of yourself, even though you spent hours doing your makeup just right.

3. When you finally realize that your makeup obsession is not what you thought it was.

Come on, admit it. We all knew this all along. So fess up!

4. The dreaded break out.

When one single pimple sends you into a frenzy and you cancel all your appointments for the next full week so you can get yourself into the salon ASAP.

5. The envy is real.

When you envy a baby just because they have better, longer, and nicer lashes than you. What mascara does this baby use?! I need to know!

6. This one is so true it hurts.

Literally, you can spend hours trying out every skin lotion known to man and your face still hates you.

7. Future goals

When you can already envision yourself when you get older and your skin regimen still takes you half a day to get ready. This woman is goals!

8. Trying to go for a natural look.

But that highlighter is just too tempting! Guess I'll just be extra today... again.

9. Following trends a little too closely.

When you follow every ridiculous beauty trend that's out there just because it's the "in" thing to do, only to do it all over again next year and regret it.

10. Sephora becomes your second home.

When your boyfriend can't understand why you're out shopping for new makeup again when you have a full drawer of that stuff already.

11. When your dog has better hair than you do.

So you drag him to the salon so you can show your hairdresser a real-life example of balayage goals.

12. Oh, no! Don't you just hate when that happens?

This can and will definitely ruin what normally be a perfectly pleasant day for everyone. Not today, Satan!

13. Groupon can be a blessing or a curse.

When you were waiting and waiting to get a beauty treatment done, only to use a Groupon for it and live to regret it. LOL! This is too much!

14. When your eyelashes try to leave you.

Have you ever been talking to someone and notice that they can't stop staring at your eyes, only to realize it's because your lashes are dangling by a thread? Yeah, that's awkward.

We can all suffer for beauty from time to time.

But don't stress, just do your best and you'll end up looking pretty in the end. Just trust me!
