Today, I was in my Cosmetic Application class, and we were about to apply foundation to our models. I walk over to my friend and say, "Wow, that foundation is really orange and blotchy." Then the model turns to me and says, "Actually, we haven't started yet… that's just my skin." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom told me that my new concealer is way too dark and makes my skin look hideously orange and uneven. I wasn't wearing any makeup. FML
Today, I found out that the foundation I've been using for the past month isn't normal foundation, its skin darkening foundation. I look like an oompa loompa from the neck up. It won't go away for another month. FML
Today, I helped out with makeup at my daughter's high school play. As one girl walked past, I told her that she'd smudged pink lipstick all up the side of her face. Turns out it was a birthmark. She cried in the dressing room for half an hour. FML
Today, I sent my friend a Snapchat without any makeup on. She asked what filter I used, because it made my face look all red and blotchy. FML
Today, as I finished putting self tanner on my legs, the phone rang. Telemarketer. After returning to the bathroom I put moisturizer on my face. As I looked in the mirror, I soon realized I'd forgotten to wash my hands. My face is now streaky orange. FML
Today, I yelled at a new employee for violating the company's makeup policy which is minimum coverage. She had red lipstick, very dark drawn eyebrows, and foundation that made her look like a ghost. She took out a makeup wipe and used it then showed me it, only to reveal she doesn't wear any. FML
Today, I got my make-up remover wipes mixed up with my sister's self-tan wipes. I am currently watching my face slowly turn orange and there is nothing I can do about it. FML
Today, I'd tried to do my makeup in a natural way for my high school graduation. I don't have much experience, but I went for it anyway. Now, looking at the photos, I can see how fucking orange I looked at the party. FML
Today, I was at a birthday party and got my face rubbed in cake. When I came out of the restroom having washed my face, I noticed one of the girls going in. Just to be nice, I asked, "They put cake on your face too, did they?" She said no, that was just her make-up. FML
Today, was my wedding day. Right before I walked down the aisle in my gorgeous white dress, the woman who did my makeup saw a blemish. She went to squirt concealer on her finger, but squirted the orange concealer all over my dress. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

it's totally an F HER life because she was so dumb as to have a fake tan in the first place! "Today I was a model as a cosmetics school. They were about to apply foundation and the woman said my face looked orange and blotchy. It wasn't the foundation... it was my face. FML"

Where is there mention of fake tans? (I however do agree with comments. Nothing is hotter than a girl that looks like an unripe carrot. Mmm Tasty!) Aren't the models monkeys? I'm amazed it was able to talk! Ok, yeah I know you test on real people, but aren't they usually students? Should she be in that class if she doesn't know what she's doing with her own damn face?

Cosmetic application class? What a completely useless subject.

Not actually, my friend is in cosmetics and the application class is to show you where to put make-up, how to properly apply it and different styles of eye make-up like smokey eye, dramatic, casual ect (I don't know what else they might do in that class). She says it's her favorite class because you learn how to properly apply make-up to all different face shapes and facial features, including what is best for your own face. Also some people in cosmetics fields need this class. Mainly because they would be applying make up to other people's faces, which means a whole bunch of different face shapes, features, and different make-up tastes other than you or your friends.

If her skin really is orange and blotchy then it's more of a FHL, haha.

I agree with 13. YDI for being in a cosmetic application class

That was smooth. Just like the other FML about the clothes.

Was the model Jordan/Katie Price by any chance?

It could have been worse: at least you ASSUMED she was wearing make-up (instead of correctly guessing what happened).

YDI for taking cosmetic application class.

Yeah, not your fault... if her skin was blotchy and orange then she must have been in a tanning bed or using fake tanner... totally lame. I agree, #3 is the best comment ever
