"That was bad enough in the '80s and should not have made a comeback."View Entire Post ›
Listen, I'm all for people doing whatever makes them feel confident, but some of the current beauty trends I'm seeing make me wonder how everyone decided it looks good.
When user SeaGurl66 on Reddit asked, "What current beauty trend gives you the biggest ick, and why?" people responded with the beauty trends they just can't get behind:
1.
"Lip filler needs to stop, but also just the Instagram face in general. Everyone looks the same. It’s bizarre. Have you watched any movies from the '80s/'90s recently? I miss when actresses and actors just had their own faces, and everyone looked different."
—purpledogtown
2.
"Veneers. Sometimes they look great. Sometimes they’re needed. Most of the time, the person looks like a horse."

3.
"I've seen some nose contouring that looks like some people have dirt on their noses when they overdo it."
—Waste_Ananthaceae361
4.
"Tons of face makeup with extra rouge/blush on the nose. A big-ass red NOSE, why? It's so distracting and always puts me in mind of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer."
—niagaemoc
5.
"Undernourished celebrities starving themselves."
—Top-Brick5687
6.
"Nails that look like deadly weapons, especially with rings and charms on them. It just looks ridiculous."
—redpandadancing
8.
"Waist training. The obsession with looking 'snatched' as if that’s the only way to be beautiful, as if every woman should have to have the same body type.… It makes me feel sad and uncomfortable."
—Skimmit_
9.
"The mullet. That was bad enough in the '80s and should not have made a comeback!"
—Warm-Raspberry4632
10.
"Slicked-back hairstyles, especially when the girl is blonde. Girl, you look bald!"
—emelinelia
11.
"The GLP-1 craze. People around me are suddenly dropping the weight they’ve struggled for years to lose, aged 10+ years, lost a bunch of muscle mass, and still insist all they did was eat better and work out."
—emi_lgr
12.
"Those fake eyelashes that look like you have an animal on your eyelids."
—gmanose
13.
"It might just be where I'm located, but fake tans and bleached blonde hair. Looks like sh*t, and their hair is almost always fried."
—wizawayy
14.
"'Preventative Botox.' Most beauty trends these days make me sad, but that one is up there."
—bepatientbekind
15.
"Highlight on the nose. I think Ariana Grande popularized it. I think it's silly, especially in harsh or flash lighting. Why would you want people to look straight at your nose instead of your eyes? I feel like it would be a sensory nightmare for me."
—eseilannaa
16.
"Fake freckles. They never look natural."
—GiftOk1930
17.
"God, the 'clean girl aesthetic' makeup, hair, outfits, ANYTHING CLEAN GIRL. What happened to personalities and style?!?! Why does everyone look the damn same?"
—Ok-loan7338
18.
"Buccal fat removal. Whoever made that sh*t popular deserves a strong kick in their most sensitive bits."
—504Chaos
19.
"When people have a little line cut into their eyebrow. Knock it off."
—manners33
20.
"Contouring was never intended as your everyday look. It was for stage and print."
—Boop-D-Boop
21.
"Short shorts, long white socks, white sneakers."
—-TazarYoot-

"Whatever the f*ck is going on with those male 'looksmaxxers.'"
—ladytrevelycn
26.
"Overfilled cheeks. They look like Handsome Squidward."
