Hilarious Makeup Memes That Are Almost Too Relatable

If you’ve ever had a makeup mishap or spent hours perfecting your look only for it to smudge five minutes later, you’re not alone! Anyone who regularly uses makeup knows the struggles, triumphs, and downright funny moments that come with beauty routines.

These hilarious makeup memes perfectly capture the funny side of doing your makeup—get ready to laugh and say, “That’s so me!”

1. Has the Mascara Dried Yet?

Needing to sneeze right after applying mascara is like a high-stakes game of beauty roulette. One wrong move, and bam! you’ve got raccoon eyes and a one-way ticket back to square one. Squeeze your eyes shut too hard? Disaster. Try to hold it in? Now you’re making weird faces and scaring everyone around you. Let’s all agree: sneezes can wait—our lashes have been through enough!

2. Eyeliner Trouble

Applying eyeliner evenly to both eyes can be a real struggle. If you apply eyeliner regularly, you’ll probably know what I’m talking about. It’s when you ace one eye and then try to copy it for the other, but it ends up too thick, so you need to apply more to the first eye…Check out these eyeliner application tips!

3. Get Your Eyebrows into Shape

A little light humor for anyone on the eternal weight-loss journey, if the scale isn’t moving and you’re feeling discouraged, why not skip the gym and shape your brows instead? Instant definition, no cardio required!

4. Woman Power

Never look down because you feel less, the only time you should look down is to show off your stunning eyeshadow!

5. Oops…

When you absent-mindedly rub an itch on your eye forgetting that you’re wearing eyeliner. Been there, done that far too many times!

6. Free Makeup, Anyone?

Who needs free health insurance when you could have free makeup instead? Just kidding! But, free makeup is always a win and way more fun to unbox!

Always keep a stunning selfie on hand, you never know when it might come in handy! Hopefully not for a missing person alert, but, you might need it for something equally important, like updating your profile pic or winning a contest!

9. Highlighter Issues

Buying a new highlighter can bring lots of issues with it. Trying it out is always fun, but knowing when to stop is the struggle!

13. Makeup Fears

How long is too long to spend in the makeup aisle before you’re suspected of shoplifting? Oh, that pressure is intense!

Most makeup junkies will know that asking what lipstick someone is wearing is a pretty loaded question! Finding the perfect shade can require many lip products!

Liquid eyeliner, you either love it or hate it! Stay cool, calm and collected when applying it because who knows, perhaps it really can sense your fear!

When a new makeup product has just been released and the whole beauty world is talking about it, there’s nothing that can hold you back from buying it! True story.

19. Boy Confidence

Boys’ confidence can sometimes be too much, there’s so much more to a makeup obsession than impressing the other gender!

20. Concealer Overload

Concealer is amazing when used correctly, but it’s not about wiping out every bit of shape on your face! Follow these concealer hacks for amazing flawless application!

Turn an insult around by adding a bit of humor to it! Expensive makeup? Well, you’re happy they noticed it!
