I love breaking the rule that people with green eyes shouldn’t wear green eyeshadow… I think any eyecolor can pull off any shadow with the right application and shade…
I love wearing smokey eyes with strong lip color
I like to wear what colors I want to instead of what goes with my skintone or eyecolor.
The one where only one part of your face should be the focus. I like bold eyes and bold lippies together. With just one focus, I feel a bit like an unfinished Picasso painting.
Some eyeshadows look great as highlights on the lips…so why not try that?
I love to break the “You can’t have a bold eye AND bold lip” rule!
I love to break the beauty rule of “Less is more”. Sometimes more is better, especially with a smoky eye!
i often hear that your eyeshadow has to match whatever color your shirt/dress/whatever you’re wearing. even though i hear from different MUA that you don’t, i still see it done. i don’t know if that is a rule, but i hear that it is from people who do it. lol.
The cream on top of cream, powder on top of powder rule. I wish cream blush of tint could just sink through a light layer of powder 😉 Just a whim, I know.
I never wear blush!
“Makeup should look natural and only enhance beauty.” NOT! I LOVE bold colored shadows, dramatic eyeliner, to-long-to-be-natural lashes and lips that POP! Makeup is a fashion statement just like any pair of shoes!
I love breaking the rule of wearing too much blush
I almost never style my hair beyond brushing it, even if I took the time to do a full face of makeup
My favorite one to break is that you shouldn’t wear dark lips and dark eyeshadow. I do it all the time!
I wear both smokey eyes & glittery eyes to work. If I waited for a special night out, I’d never get to wear my fave shades!!!
Sometimes I wear a dark lip with a dark eye. I probably look funny but I like to experiment. =)
i love breaking the ” no concealer over powder” rule !!
Curling eyelashes after mascara! My lashes haven’t fallen out yet, but they look so long and curled 🙂
Well, there’s this rule that says that if you emphasize the eyes you should leave the lips in a neutral way or viceversa. I broke that rule several times… and I succeded anyway! 😉
I actually curl my lashes after applying my mascara, I know it’s bad but it works so much better
I forgot to apply sunscreen and moisturizer this morning…
I’ve always been told that when you wear warm eyeshadows that you need to wear a warm lip. I like to do cool lips with warm eyeshadows and such. And i like to wear my cool shadows during the winter as well.
I love to break the shimmer rule! Shimmer eyes, shimmer lips, cheeks all together – love it!!!
Same here! I love breaking that rule. 🙂
I’d love to break the smokey eye and strong lip look. I’d wear them both at the same time!
THIS IS AN AWESOME CONTEST – IREALLY WANT TO WIN IT!
Love breaking the cool colors on warm skin rule! This is one of the best ways to perk up your look!
I like to break em all!!! heheheh J/k i like to break the rules about wearing certain colors on certains days seasons etc. I just wear the color I feel will make me happy at that moment :)(without looking crazy)
I squeeze pimples and blackheads. It’s disgusting but I can’t help it.
I have the same horrible habit. I somehow think it’ll make it better, when in fact just makes things worse.. 🙁
honestly…
I know some people say you SHOULDN’T match your makeup to your clothes…
but i can’t help it… i’m all about matchy matchy… LoL.. i at LEAST try to coordinate them… even if its just a soft barely noticable wash of color… or just an eyeliner in the color of maybe a detail in a shirt or shoes.. LoL! I ofcourse can be neutral and do!.. but if i can use color i certainly do try!.. LoL
that certain eye shadow colors should be worn with certain eye colors.
Beauty rule i’d love to break… overdone blush
I love breaking the bare eyes/bold lips, bold eyes/nude lip rule!!! You can def. do this without looking like a clown in my opinion 🙂
Wearing only female perfume! There are tons of fragrances for men that I love, namely Givenchy Play!
I know we’re not suppose to smile when we put on blush but I do it anyway!
Dark eyes for night only.
I know Cosmo used to print a lot not to match eyeshadow to clothing, but every once and a while I like to, depending on the look.
Beauty rule I’d love to break, is the need to be skinny. Magazine has set the idea that we all have to be thin in to have beauty. Which, is a false.. in my belief. Beauty comes from within, & make up helps enhances that. Thin, has nothing to do with it. It lowered young girls self esteem, & it once lowered mine. Then, make up.. helped me, feel more confident. & I gradually shedded that low self esteem. I have chubby cheeks, so instead of dieting or taking medical procedures for it, a little bronzer on my face helps shed a couple pounds. (:
As this book is writen especially for girls between 12 and 25 years it doesn’t really apply to my agegroup 🙁 , as I’m more close to the 40s as to the 25 (LOL), but great price to win, a signed book and a palette!!! I’m a big fan of Bobbi Brown. Now that I am much older (and wiser ;-)) i’ve realised after reading this post that I don’t break many beautyrules anymore, and try to take good care of my skin and appearance, nails polished, always smell nice, etc ;-). When I was younger however, during college after a good night out partying I broke this rule very often: didn’t take my make up off before going to bed. I sure hope this counts as well, i would love to get my hands on this price!!!
I often break the rule that you shouldnt match your shadow to your clothes.
Wow this is a fun question, I love that! Well… I think I would love to break the rule that says taht redheads should always wear bronze, golden, warm shades! I mean, I should be able to wear silver and blue tones eyeshadows if I want to!!! =D
Strong eyes and bold lips! If you can pull it off you should defenitely wear it.
I don’t always use the shadows and liner colors that are “correct” for my eye color. Too boring!
How in the world did you get a signed copy of this prize? 🙂
I don’t really like that “pair warm with warm” rule. I prefer to wear cooler cheek color with warm lips…because it actually brightens my face. Whereas some warm cheek colors just make me look…red. and not in a good way lol.
I’m also not a huge fan of “i’m warm so I have to wear warm” kinda ideology. I noticed recently that even though I’m warm, at least on my eyes and cheeks I actually look better in neutral or even neutral cool colors. Warm shades can sometimes look sort of orangy and dirty on me. Lips, though, I do have to go with a warmer tone because my natural lip pigment and skin chemistry sort of turns cooler l/s into this…frosty fuscia mess LOL
I love wearing smokey/dramatic/glittery/sparkly eyeshadow during the day. A neutral eye can get boring after a while.
“Makeup should look natural and only enhance beauty.” no!
Using the “windshield wiper” motion for blending eyeshadow or not blending at all! Sometimes it’s nice to have a dramatic color line! 🙂
I hate the ‘no matching makeup and clothes’ rule… I will break it till the day I die!
creams with creams, powders with powders
OMG I love this!! I break many rules, but to begin with, I love wearing tons of blush!! And secondly, I wear red lips with smokey eyes all the time, and I get so many compliments 🙂
I often not wash my face even tough I sould
i like wearing the colors i want instead of what goes with my skintone.
Bold eyes with Bold lips, instead of the usual neutral lip.
I love breaking seasonal color rules. Bright coral looks great in January! Who cares if its a summer color 🙂
hmmm!! one i break everyday!!! and i love to break is….. NOT USING A PERFECT MATCH OF FOUNDATION!
i use a foundation a shade lighter than my skintone! and as i know i am warm toned i still use a foundation (not MAC) with pinky beige undertones to brighten my complexion it gives me have a dewy finish! and i get compliments all day!!!!
Curling lashes after mascara. With my short and skimpy lashes, that’s the only thing that works!
I hear it’s a no-no to match your make-up to your clothes, but I really like to do it! Not all the time, but if I wear a bright green top or something I’m probably gonna wear eyeshadow to match.
The one that says which makeup you should wear at day time -lighter and natural- and at night time -stronger and focused in one thing-.
NO!! Hahaha
I love wearing dramatic red lips and strong black lashes at 10am!! And, maybe, just a bit of blush and mascara at 10pm…
people always say less is more with eyeliner, and that there can be too much “smoke” in a smokey eye but i love raccoon eyes! they can be soo artistic if worn in the correct manner in the correct setting. 🙂
I love breaking the rule that you should not curl you eyelashes after applying mascara! I always do it and it makes my lashes look much better and they never fall out!
I love to break the beauty “rule” of wearing neutral makeup at my office job. I have to be there 8+ hours a day, and I want to feel like myself! For example, today I’m wearing minx and urb from Urban Decay’s vegan palette on my eyes 🙂
I break the rule by wearing eyeshadow and eyeliner that matches whatever color outfit I am wearing. I love to play around with colors.
The beauty rule I love breaking is “you can’t wear a smokey eye during the day.” The Kardashians inspired me to break this rule 🙂 smokey eyes look great any time of the day as long as it’s done correctly!
I don’t wear sunscreen unless I’m going to the beach. I also love a red lip with everyday makeup and a casual outfit.
Not wearing Blue eyshadow, I love Blue eyeshadow!
My favorite rule to “break” is definitely matching your eye makeup to your clothes.
While I may not use an exact color in the outfit, I love using different hues from the outfit in my makeup to really bring out the eyes/outfit.
curling your eyelashes AFTER you apply mascara
i sometimes wear certain blushes as an eyeshadow! some just have gorgeous colors that i wish could be an eyeshadow!!
Eye colors, many colors, with strong lipstick. I love it!
i like to match my clothes and makeup…lol.
I like to break the “you can’t wear bright eyeshadow with a bright lip” rule!
1. LOVE breaking the rule that you shouldn’t wear bold lips during the day. NOTHING wrong with bright red and purple lippie during the day!(MAC Violette and Ruby Woo)
2. LOVE breaking the rul that a smokey eye has to use brown or black eyeshawdows. LOVE LOVE LOVE a smokey eye with some color. Purples and greens are my favorite (MAC Humid and Deep Dansom)
I like bold eyes and bold lips. Also, I wear whatever color eyeshadow I like, not what I’m “supposed” to wear with my eyecolor.
I don’t pay much attention to what is right and what is wrong to my undertone, I just play with colours and have fun whit it!
Ha! I don’t always throw things away when I *should*…if it still smells fine and works the same- why throw it away?!?
I like to break the rule about putting on additional coats of mascara quickly before it dries. I add extra coats to perk my mascara up throughout the day and I don’t have any clumping or flaking problems.
The rule i love to break is going with a Smokey eye/ light on the lips. Depending what mood i’m in, i’ll do a smokey eye and bright lips. =)
Don’t wear blue or green nail polish to work when you’re in your 40s.
dark eyeliner to work 🙂
I alway break the rule of warm skintone with warm colors. I love wearing a cool pink on muy cheeks, it mekaes more alive.
Wear all shades of eye shadow. not just what looks god with my brown eyes.
I don’t like to match my eyeshadow to my clothes, I wear whatever colors I feel like putting on that day whether it matches my clothes or not!
I often get too tired to remove my make-up at night. Actually I’ve been without a make-up remover for awhile. lol. I need to buy a new one.
i love to break the rule of having to match your makeup with your clothes, i never do!
wearing no blush
I dnt wear eyeliner wid a eyeshadow…
That your supposed to wear a certain color of eyeshadow depending on your eye color… what’s the fun in that?
i wear whatever colors i want no matter if it’s supposed to look good on my skin or not. i think theres a shade of every color that can work for everyone!
I break the rule about having my makeup look natural – that is no fun! On some occasions, natural just won’t do!
the rule that strong eyes need nude lips, and strong lips need nude eyes. sometimes I love them both quite strong.
The one that says if you have small eyes, you shouldn’t use black eyeshadow, and especially shouldn’t line both top and bottom with a black liner. Pish posh!
I don’t believe in day vs night looks. I wear the look I want no matter what time of day.
i like to wear crazy colors of blush that don’t look “like i’ve just come in from the cold”. seriously every natural blush description has that phrase!
I love not matching eyeshadow!
I love to break the rule about day-time makeup and night-time makeup, I usually wear night-time supposed makeup to school or day time =D
I don’t clean my brushes nearly as often as I should. Shame on me!
Here lately I’ve been wearing bold eyes and lips..naughty naughty but darn you Venomous Villains it’s all your fault!
I often go makeup-less, and alot of people feel that as a women that shouldnt happen, hehe. I also wear blue eyeshadow ALOT which is supposedly a no-no for a blue eyed person.
I love to wear bright, bold eyeshadow colors anytime of year, not just in the summer.
Too much blush and a bold lip and smokey eye.
Matching my eyeshadow to my outfit!
Bright lips to the office 🙂 Hehehe
I like using whatever color I want, even if it match or doesn’t match with my clothes, my skincolor, my hair color of my eyes. Makeup is fun!
I want to break the rule of not matching your clothes-color with your eye-makeup … to some extent, of course!
I wear socks with sandals. Like, thigh-high argyle socks with Birkenstocks.
Matching makeup to clothes…. I don’t think it’s a bad rule to break!
I love to wear blue eyeshadow and glitter, but in a tasteful way. I feel like if I do it, it makes it ok for others my age (36).
I like to use makeup products my own way,ie,eyeshadow as highlighter,lipstick as blush,etc.
Matching colors with my skintone/undertone I wear what I like to wear also matching blushes with eye shadows based on the undertone I never follow that.
I love breaking the rule that you shouldn’t match your eyeshadow to your outfit.
the rule I always break is matching my eye/lip color to the clothes i’m wearing. Who has time for that anyways and don’t we all end up at the last minute changing something in our wardrobe for the day look?: )
I love wearing eyeshadow, even if it’s not meant for my skin tone!
I love to match my eye shadows to my outfits! It doesn’t have to match perfectly but I feel weird if I’m wearing say a purple shirt and have orange eyeshadow.
definitely wearing a dark eye with dark lips
I often break the rule “less is more”
Shimmery blush and shimmery eyeshadow (but not toooo shimmery :D)
Bright lips with dark smokey eyes would be my rule to break!
dark eyes and bold lips!
Bold eyes and bold lip.
love black smokey eye with an opeque hot pink lip.
Sometimes I’ll do both a strong eye and a strong lip.
Smokey Eyes with red/bold lips!
I don’t think that I really break any beauty rules. I do like shimmer and probably use more at times then what is ‘accepted’.
the glitter on cheeks/eyes/lips – it looks so much fun but Bobbi thinks it’s a big no no
That women shouldn’t have facial hair. Come on: bearded ladies are hot. At least that’s what I tell myself when I’m too lazy to wax my ‘stache! LOL!
Definitely bright lips with dark eyes!
LOL, I feel like I’ve heard a lot of contradicting rules… but I almost never line my entire eye! It tends to look better and more natural only partially lined.
It’s a bit of an old-fashioned rule, but I rarely match my finger and toe nail polish color! My aunt always chastises me but I don’t care!
Brown eyeshadows are my favorite color (and the color I own the most) to wear even though my eyes are brown!
I don’t listen to beauty rules unless they seem reasonable for me, so I am constantly breaking the rules! I do my looks how I want and no one can tell me if that’s right or wrong, I sholud decide that because I am the one who’s wearing it so… yay for too much blush, yay to dark lips and smokey eyes! but always no to looking like a clown!!
A lot of people say you should do a bold eye and a light lip or a bold lip and a light eye, but I love doing both a bold eye and a bold lip!
I like black eyeliner, even though I’m blonde and super-pale. There’s nothing quite like a black cat-eye!
I love bright blue eye shadows..even though I grew up with everyone saying it was tacky and 80s
I love to break the rule that blond girls can’t wear devil red lips ^^
I use highlighter pencils as concealer…even though they are supposed to highlight the area, I find they brighten up any red areas so they don’t look as extreme and end up blending in more. Is that a rule?? I hope it counts 🙂
Don’t mix warm and cool colours on your cheeks and lips.
I personally look really bad in a warm lip colour, so i wear a cool pink lip, and a peachy blush. 😀
i wear crazy colored eyeshadow, red, orange, on non-special occassions…like to school or work
i love matching eyeshadow with my outfit hehe 🙂
I break the strong eye with a strong lip rule all the time. I love a red lip and my eyes disappear if I don’t do a strong liner. So. Strong and strong for the win!
Matching my eyeshadow to my shirt 🙁 I can’t help it, I love it so much!!
Wearing smokey eyes during the day!
I’m always breaking rules about colors — colors you’re not supposed to wear if your skin is a certain color, or it’s a certain time of year, or you’re already wearing another color, or whatever. I wear whatever colors I like, whenever I want!
I love matching my clothes with my makeup!
the rule i’d love to break? the one that says you should get at least 8 hours sleep everynight….
i pulled an all-nighter the other day with a few really close friends and the boy and we just stayed up chatting, dancing, laughing until god knows what time…. and then we went outside, sat on the hill and just watched the sunrise together.. it was absolutely amazing and totally magical. im so lucky to have such wonderful people in my life…. and its too short to waste on sleeping 8 hours EVERY night! 😛
I love breaking the rule that you should wear brown mascara to pale skin and light hair.
I love to break the rule that you shouldn’t do bold eyes and bold lips at the same time. I do it all the time, and I love it!
I wear really bright eyeshadows to work.
I like colour and I wear colourful eye shadow or eyeliner to work. If my eye shadow isn’t colourful I have no problem wearing a bright red lip. Love the strong lippie.
Red Lips & Dark Eyes – Love it
That people shouldn’t wear both bold eyes and bold lips!
oh i live shimmer! i can tottaly do a shimmery eye and wear it to work 🙂
I want to break the rule that you can’t wear smoky eyes for daytime. Sometimes I just want to rock a more dramatic look 🙂
I love to break the ‘less is more’ rule!
I love breaking the rule that you can’t match your makeup to your clothes.
Hi! I don’t like any of the rules for colors you should use for your eye color! Also I dont like the rule about doing a very neutral or bare eye if you’re doing a bright lip color. I don’t go crazy on the eye, but I feel naked with just mascara on, no matter what is on my lips!
Thanks for the contest!
i like wearing blue eyeshadow on my blue eyes!
I break the makeup rule of “You shouldn’t match your eyeshadow to your eye color”. I have an array of circle lenses I love and match my eyeshadow to them accordingly! It makes them stand out more, in a good way 🙂
I’ve had enough with the smokey eyes and “nude” lip combo. Bring on the bold lips!!
I agree with Michelle, I have brown eyes so I think any color looks great with that color, but any color eye can make any eye shadow color look great! Also Roxy smokey and a bold lip is fantastic for a special occasion!
I love to wear dramatic smokey eyes with strong, bold lips!
I love wearing a smoky eye with a bold lip color. And I’m sooo sick of smoky eyes and nude lips!
Shimmery highlight during the winter! 🙂
I like to match my eyeshadow to my outfit
I break the rule that you should throw away mascara after 3 months.
That blue eyeshadow is out and so 80’s. Blue shades if done right can look good.
I sometimes like to wear dark shades on my eye lids even when it is said that you should not. I think you can do it if you do it a certain way.
I break the same color clothes and same color eyeshadow rule. If it looks good I will wear it!
Matching my lips to my outfit!! I don’t think of it as dated, retro is more like it =]
I like to break the wearing makeup to the gym rule. Is it a rule btw?
Sometimes rather than less is more I go for more is more!
Enter in contests I am not aloud?Why us readers only?Europeans dont have a heart!Anyway i love breaking the rule of bold eyes and neutral lips. It works better usually doing bold bold for pale people like me. Just entered to say my opinion.Happy contest to others!Good luck!
where you should only apply bronzer to certain places on your face. sometimes i go a little overboard and cover my entire face
peach cheeks in the winter!
I like to match my makeup to my clothing.
i hate how people feel like its a rule to always wear bronzer
but i look dirty with it on 🙂
I like to wear whatever eyeshadow colour I feel in the mood for, regardless if you are supposed to wear it with green eyes haha
Don’t remove make-up before going bed when I’m tired. But the morning after I seem a Panda 😛
The rule that I like to break it using products not made for their purpose!
I’ve always heard that those who wear glasses should stick to simple eye looks and strong lip colors – but I do the smokey eye and nude lip all the time when I wear my specks!
I love breaking the rule using smoky eyes with a “dark” lipcolor.
I don’t curl my lashes ever!
I wear bold, colorful eyes whenever I want to; day or night.
I love wearing super long and thick lashes all the time – not false eyelashes, but I like to pump my lashes up no matter what time of day!
i like to break the rule saying you’re only supposed to wear certain colors that “go” with your skintone. to me, its how you apply, not the actual color!
I love breaking the rule that pale people can’t wear darker blush colors. YSL’s cinnamon blush make me look like a doll with my porcelain skin, and I like it!
I think this is a rule. I always seem to break the 5 minute rule. The rule says something along the lines of only spending 5 minutes to put on your makeup, IMPOSSIBLE! LOL
I wear dark eyes and dark lips….It’s fall and makeup is changing…I’m a leader not a follower!
The “do not wear dark lipstick during the day” or heavy eye makeup with a non-nude lip thing.
sometimes i sleep with make up on! =/
I love to wear red lips during the day and I’m warm skin and like to wear cool colors
wearing whatever colors i want and not caring about my skintone
I don’t wear a base coat when I put nail polish on. I think it stays on better without it.
I love to break the rule about doing only one of dramatic eyes or lips. I like doing both for a really vampy look. 😀
I’m not fond of lipstick/gloss so I’ll often wear balm with an otherwise full face.
I like to wear what most people would consider a “nighttime smokey eye” during the day.
I love to skip the “curl you lashes” rule. I also tend to break the rule that says that you need to put eyeliner on your lower lash line.
I love wearing a strong eye and lip color together… I can’t help it my personality is strong! 😉
i love matching my eyeshadow to the colors i’m wearing even though i shouldn’t!
I hate the term daytime makeup. I love wearing a dark smokey eye during the day especially when its cloudy outside. My makeup reflects my mood no matter what time it is.
wearing both dramatic eye and lip make up
I love breaking the tanning rule.. I’m sorry, but a little natural tan goes a long way!
All of them…I really don’t follow any official beauty rules.
I would love to break the whole wearing nudes at work! I like bright colors!!!

ive never seen anything like it so im excited to enter to try and win! 😀
That based on your skin tone or eyecolor you can only wear certain colors. I think you should just wear whatever type of color makes you happy!
I never wear lip liner…. P.s I LOVE Bobbi Brown!
Bold eyes and bold lips!
a lot of blush on the cheeks. Sometimes, with the correct color, it can be an amazing result =)
That “natural” hair can’t be color or straighten there air. Its fine to do so as long as you give your hair extra moisture (i.e oils, conditoner, protective styles).
I break the rule constantly about wearing makeup appropriate to my age group!!!break it everytime….I refuse to look my age!
Please include me in the giveaway. Most makeup artists say only use strong colors on one feature. Well I sometimes wear brightly colored lips and eyeshadow. Rules are meant to be broken when it comes to makeup. Thank you.
makeupgirl21@comcast.net
I have blue eyes, so I usually never wear blue eyeshadow, but I found a lovely shade that’s great to make a blue smokey look with.
I wear dark eye shadow and dark lips! And I curl my lashes after apply mascara! ^.^
I love breaking the rule that less is more…I think that sometimes more is the only way to go!!
my favorite rule to break is no shimmer over 40
I break beauty rules by using brushes for things other than their intended purpose, like using concealer brushes for eyeshadow and face brushes for blush 🙂
I like wearing bold or bright makeup with strong and bold lips. Sometimes it may be too much, but you know what? I wear what I want to wear and it’s fun!!
Ahhh! It’s hard to refrain from putting on a bold lip color when i already have a smokey eye!
I like to break the rule that you only wear certain colors for certain seasons. Sometimes i get the urge to wear bright colors on rainy dull fall days, it just brightens my mood :]
No concealer over powder 😉
putting powder on foundation it looks better underneath
I love matching my clothes to my eyeshadow
i break rules eveyday when it comes to creating looks. Cool, warm and neutral shades are not in my vocab. I feel every women should be able to choose colors that fit her mood that day. Purple shadow with a hint of gold, Blue shadow with some violet and greens… Anything is possible when creating looks. That is what makeup is all about! Creativity and fun!!!
I file my nails “improperly” all the time — I know I’m not supposed to saw back and forth, and yet I do anyway.
My favorite rule to break is “Less is more.” More is more fun!
I never wear eyeliner
I like to wear crazy extreme eyeliner to the grocery store! And highlighting the cheekbones with a blue irridescent powder gives the coolest mystical look.
When I put makeup on, I wear whatever colors I want. I don’t care what season it is. I don’t care what my eye color is. I certainly don’t care what my skintone is. If I want to wear a bright, colorful eye with lime and spring green shadow in the dead of winter, I’m going to do so quite happily, and poo on those who tell me I shouldn’t.
not wearing blush
Smoky eyes even during the day.
dark smokey eyes for the daytime, not just for nighttime.
Wearing a strong lip with a strong eye 🙂
Wearing whatever colors I feel like, instead of following rules like “fair girls can’t wear dark lips” or “brunettes with dark eyes shouldn’t wear blue eyeshadow”
tweet http://twitter.com/redfuzzycow/status/26586966402
I love bold lips and bold eye color! Just love it.
i like having dramatic eye with bold lip!
…pumping the mascara wand. Huge mistake, I know, but I LOVE volume + definition on my lashes and sometimes the wand doesn’t pick enough product!
The “it shouldn’t look like youre wearing makeup” rule! Too boring!
overdone blush 🙂 I always rock it, haha
I enjoy wearing loud colors on my nails, despite working in a conservative office environment.
Not wearing deep reds, or dark plum lipstick with really fair skin, with the right outfit and make up job you can look fantastic. 😛
O man! why it’s only for US readers? :(((
But I will answer anyhow…
I usually doesn’t wear lipstick/lipgloss… just nothing 🙂
I love wearing far too much blush!
oh! and wearing loads of mascara!
I love to match my makeup to my clothes I think the more colores the better and I also love glitter/shimmer eyes,lips,blush I love it all
The number one makeup rule I love breaking is wearing powder over my foundation in the summer even when it is super hot and humid. I was just recently on a trip to New Orleans and did my makeup just like I normally would to go out. Full coverage and powder to set. I always hear girls on blogs, youtube videos and in real life of course! Saying that they neve wear powder when it is hot and humid because they look so cakey and it always just wears off. I on the other hand think it controls my oil and make my make up stay put rather than just a liquid foundation or say a tinted moisturizer. I don’t have many blemishes but I like to have a flawless look at the clubs. My makeup lasted even in the New Orleans heat for hours and hours just because of the great powder I used! I am not sure if it is a “rule” but I hear how it is a no, no a lot =0) I swear by it! For me at least!
Wearing blue eyeshadow with blue eyes 😀 Or a bold lip with bold eye makeup.
I sometimes wear a bold lip with a smokey eye! Oops! 🙂
Sometimes I will wear heavy eye makeup and a bright lip.
The no powder over concealer rule
I almost always forget to wash off my makeup
I sometimes forget spf
I often do a bold smokey eye with bold red lips
wearing bold colors on all parts of the face!
I never wear lip liner.
I sometimes like wearing colors that are meant for cool toned people rather than the warm tones I “should” wear! Some colors look awkward this way, but some really bring out my skintone!
I hear that shimmer is for your 20’s not 30’s but I love it anyway!
I never use brushes to their intended use. My motto is, whatever works!
The first one that came to mind was the “rule” that it’s too much to wear intense eyes with equally intense lips (i.e. super smoky eyes with pigmented red lips). I break it all the time for evening occasions, and my friends rave about it. Go big or go home.
I’m curious about your answer, Christine!
The if “Do a strong lip OR a strong eye, not both” so-called rule.
I’ll pair a bold red lip with a dark eye. I don’t care, I think it looks good on me!
I love to break the rule of “day time” and “night time” looks! Sometimes I wear a “night” look in the day and a “day” look at night.
I don’t believe in general rules..I think we should all experiment with different colors and styles and try to make up our own rules!
My personal favorite rule violation is that I use any color I like..I don’t care if I should use only warm colors.
I like to wear cool colors with my warm skin tone =)
Love to break cool tones on fair skin. I’m fair and I wear whatever color I want. Dark purple, hot orange, pale blue you ne it!
I would love to break the “do not wear” a bold lip with a smokey eye rule.
Red lips ..no matter what the season is!
that we should only only stick for certains colors….
I’m “too old” to wear bright colors but I do anyway.
I have no problem mixing a bold eye with a bold lip or a nude eye with a nude lip! The best thing about makeup is that the “rules” are meant to be broken! =)
Well, one of them is that I like to put my lip liner on after my lipstick application. I find it gets a less harsh, artificial line and looks more natural.
I know you’re not supposed to do it, but I always tug on my eyes when I put on liner, it’s the only way I know how!
I also hate the rule that certain looks are reserved for ‘nighttime’. I wear what I want whenever and wherever I feel like LOL. I’ll wear a full face of makeup, and still throw on a t-shirt and sweats. I just don’t care *shrugs*
I love wearing a stong eye with a strong lip with strong brows. As long as it’s well done, it works!!!
I would love to break the rule of always blend your eyeshadow out! Its cool to have a hard edge on eyeshaodw once in awhile!
I love breaking the don’t match your eye makeup to your clothes rule! lol
the rule that dark girls shouldn’t wear bright colors!!!
I will match my eyeshadow to my outfit
i love using my fingers for foundation!
I love breaking the ” pink blush for fair skin rule” I have fair skin and always use the opposite to counteract the ruddiness in my complexion.
As a pale redhead, I love to wear black mascara, even though I have blonde eyelashes, because I feel it is a much more dramatic look.
I like breaking the “pick a focal point” rule. I like to emphasis mah whole face c:
I like to break: You must cover up every pore on your face to look good. There’s more to life than pores, such as hydrated skin, elasticity, and just a natural look that makeup can’t replicate.
the rule that says you can’t wear makeup on only your eyes!
I wish I could wear crazy lipstick colors like blue and orange.
wearing cool or warm colors depending on your tone. Screw it, I wear the colors I feel that day!
I often match my makeup to some sort of clothing item I have on.. maybe a jacket.. or maybe even an accessory! Whatever I feel like (:
I love to break the rule don’t match your makeup to your outfit! I feel weird if I have on green eyeshadow and say a blue shirt.
Dark eyes and dark lips ! It can look dramatic but I don’t care !
I love breaking the “dark shadow, nude lip” rule. I think I look horrible with nude lips! I’ll use whatever shade I want you use, thank you!
I don’t like to fill my eyebrows all the time. I was born with sparse blonde brows, I don’t see why I need to always make them brown to “better match” my red hair (which I was also born with)
I never shade my brows as dark as my hair or even close. I have a lot of stark white hairs on my brows (always have) and a jump to the shade I have my hair freaks me out.
lol, I break rules constantly! I wear bright, sparkly makeup to do errands, church, the park, work, I match my makeup to my clothes and There’s no difference between my day & night makeup, i’ll wear a night time look during the day I don’t care. I love seeing how everyone is enjoying their life and not letting the rules bother their style =D
I like to match my clothes with the color of my eye shadows I know you don’t suppose to do that
I would to try other eyeshadow color.

I would wear ABBA style blue eyeshadow 🙂
I wear a ponytail or casual hair with full make-up
My favorite rule to break is wearing strong/bold lips with a strong/smoky eye! Oh that, and being 30 and still wearing glitter 😀
That you can either have a bold eye or a bold lip but not both. If done correctly, you absolutely can do it! I love a smokey eye with a bright lip!
I always like to apply concealer before my foundation
Lots of people believe that you can only wear eyeshadows that “work” for their eye color (purples for green, etc.), but I like using any colors I please!!!
I love bold eyes with strong lips!
I break that rule that you cant match lips to nails. Sometimes it happens by accident and when it does I like it! I look like marilyn with matching reds which is usually the case.
I never follow any rules about toning down eye makeup for work. My look is my look.
The “concealer after foundation” rule!
I love stretching my eyelids when I’m putting on eyeliner. I know you’re not supposed to because it’s supposed to cause wrinkles, but my eyeliner would look pretty jacked up otherwise XD
Oh whoops, US readers only. Failed to catch that part 🙁
I rarely follow any rules besides cleansing and moisturing my skin. My make-up mostly depends on my mood, so anything can happen

I can’t resist wearing glitter to work, school, everywhere
that your makeup colors can’t match your outfit. ie- eyeshadow color match a bit with your shirt or lipstick to your dress.
I will admit, after a long night out, I don’t always wash my face before bed. Its true… :/
I love breaking the beauty taboo with pink… its my favorite color to wear and I’ve never had a problem with it!

I like to break the “no bold lip with smoky eyes” rule.
I wear “day makeup” during the night and “night makeup” during the day! Of course my friends would argue that both my looks are the exact same!
I hate the rule that women over forty can only wear neutral mattes. How boring! It’s just a matter of learning where to place the color and the sparkle.
I like to break the bold lip and bold eye rule.
I break the rule when I match my eyeshadow with my outfits!!
alot of people say not to match your makeup to your clothing, but I do all the time. I’m also in my thirties and still wear gliter.
I use bronzer to highlight my cheeks.
I love wearing color any color at any time. And also use eyeliner to make fake face tattoos on my face.

…….. am i the only person that likes to stick to the rules? I see myself as an amateur so i tend to abide by the rules. Not adventurous enough 🙁
I break the rule that you should not wear dark lipliner. Some times you need it to tone down lipsticks that are “too nude”.
The rule about strong smokey eyes with nude lips. I think I love smokey eyes with bold lips, red o burgundy.
Using fingers to apply makeup

I love defying the term, “au natural”, I love looking like a doll on a daily basis, even to school!
Before I read some of these comments, I didn’t even know that there was a “beauty rule” against coordinating one’s eye makeup to one’s outfit (or at least a small part). I’ve been happily breaking that rule for years… and complimented for it almost daily! 🙂
Bold eye + Bold lip! =)
The beauty “rule” I always break is not to wear glitter nail polish unless you’re 14. Some people may think I’m a little old for sparkly green nails, but I don’t care! I rock the glitter with pride!
I don’t wear blush or bronzer… ever.
I love to break the rule that says women over 50 shouldn’t wear anything shimmery.
i break the people with red hair cant wear red lipstick rule!
I love doing a bold eye and a bold lip.
I love wearing cool colors on my warm skintone =)
i love to wear strong eyesahdow color
I love wearing MAC Fresh Salmon lipstick and coral blush with blue eyeshadow looks. I hear coral lips and cheeks are not appropriate with blue shadow. lol
i love wearing shiny eyeshadows during day time!
Cool eyeshadow with a cool lip? Not always! That’s a break-worthy rule
blue eyeshadow!
smokey eyes with bold lips
no moisturizer!
bold eyes & lips..it can be done with the right techniques and colors!
I like to break the filing in the eyebrows rule 😉
I don’t like it when people say, “you can’t wear ____ once you pass ___ of age.” Screw that, once I’m at those ages, I still am going to wear what makes me feel beautiful! Glitter? Bring it on!
Wearing smoky/dramatic eyes with pale/nude lips, because I absolutely cannot wear nude lipsticks!!!
I like to break the bold eyes and bold lips rule (:
I am a makeup freak just like the rest of you and they say you are always supposed to curl your eyelashes… well I never curl them and I dont own an eyelash curler… LOL.
Don’t wear the same colour eyeshadow as your contacts!
I looove to break the rule of always having to wear mascara and eyeliner together. I love mascara and always wear it, but I HATE eyeliner and never wear it. The mascara looks fine on it’s own to me, but when the look does need eyeliner I will put some on.
i dont wear sunscreen, 🙁
I would like to break the blue eyes and the pink. Its not tacky if you can work it!
I would like to break the blue eyes and the pink lip. Its not tacky if you can work it!
i like to be shimmery all over- eyes, cheeks, lips
Sometimes more is better I think! I would break that rule! 🙂
A dark lip is required when I wear a smokey eye and I love to mismatch my blush and lip stick. A dark berry lip and peach blush looks amazing.
I love putting lots of focus on my eyes even though I wear bold glasses!
I use bronzer instead of blush, unless I am doing a special occasion look.
I would love to break the bold eyes and bold lip.
I love nearly black lids and dark lip. I definatley want to break that rule.
I would love to wear during the day time so, I want to break that rule.
I like to break the rule of “worksafe makeup”. Someone else said “if i waited for a special occasion, I would never get to wear my fav colors!” I agree! So I throw in some of my fav shadows & lip colors in the middle of the week in a very muted but still fun and colorful way.
I would love to wear glitter during the day time so, I want to break that rule.
I like using my fingers to blend things out occasionally:)
such a rebel…. I know 😉
I love being a larger women in a stereo typically small industry. I love makeup and beauty and to me thin isn’t more beautiful.
I love breaking the “rule” that once you’re an old bat like me (46) you shouldn’t wear colored eye shadow anymore….
I love a strong smokey eye with a strong red lip :p
I would love to not wash my face after coming home late and tired!! does that count ???? That’s a rule I would love to break without there being any consequences.
Just because I’m not a teenager anymore doesn’t mean that I can’t have fun with my nail color. I love brights, greys, burgundies, teals, etc. It’s the nicest surprise to look down and see great color on my nails all day long. Shows that just because I’m a mom it doesn’t mean I can’t have fun with my makeup and beauty!
I like to wear shimmery makeup on more than one feature, like highlighter on my cheeks and a shimmer eye shadow.
i love to break the rule of wearing mascara 🙂 been going without it lately
I hate the “you can only do a dramatic eye OR a dramatic lip” rule. Sometimes when I am hitting the town I want drama all over!
Season-specific makeup colors… I love wearing a bronze goddess-y look all year round!
I don’t use concealer! 😛
Wearing certain colors depending on the season…it just limits you!
shaving! i don’t shave (or wax, or nair, etc.) my legs or underarms and both men and women constantly tell me that i’m beautiful.
Socks with heels. I wish someone would make a rule not to put those together!
The rule I like to break is the one that says that blue eyed girls shouldn’t wear blue eye shadow. I’m wearing it today!
I loooove blue eye shadow! 😀
matching eyeshadow to your sweather
I love breaking lipstick rules and using my lipstick as blush.
I don’t believe in firm Makeup rules! Makeup should be fun and rules are made to be broken:-) I always end up breaking the rule of focusing on one feature to play up! I like wearing a smokey eye with a bright pink lip!
I pretty much break any rule that I feel is interfering with how I want my makeup to be that day!
The beauty rules that I like to break sometimes is not curling my lashes after applying mascara and I like lashes but never wear them and I don’t hardly never wear a primer for foundation.
I wear “night time” make up anytime.
I think any time of day is just perfect for a deep smokey eye.
I love to break the “less is more” rule. 😉
This is bad real bad. I tend to curl my lashes after applying mascara… 🙁
WHOOP
I love breaking the “don’t wear blue eye shadow” rule. Now I don’t go Mimi-style on it, but I like to wear light bluish gray eye shadow. It really makes my hazel eyes stand out.
I love to wear bright eyeshadows all year round not just in the summer and smokey eyes are not just a nighttime thing for me they can be worn in the daytime too!!!!
I’d love to break the rule of apply cream before powder, I use a cream highlight and always apply it after my powder
Smokey eye and bold lip I like to wear both not just one
I love breaking the “cat eyeliner is for a more dramatic look” rule. I wear a cateye on the regular day to day!!! 😀
the “beauty rule” that i break is to follow the latest beauty trends
i like to wear what i think is most flattering on me and i think that’s what true beauty should be all about. it’s about being true to yourself and not conforming to others’ expectations
be yourself and live happy:]
I break the “Don’t wear shimmer over 40!” rule, because I think it is outdated. And Bobbi Brown is the one who made it outdated by creating shimmers that are soft and make you look “lit from within.”
The rule that you’re not supposed to match your eyeshadows with your clothes! I like to match it, to me it just looks nice!
I follow you (@mamavalveeta03)

I rarely curl my lashes before putting on mascara. Does that count??
I love blush! Sometimes Iike to pack it on..I just can’t get enough
I wanna wear bold glitter eye liner for daytime!
uh, what rules?
I like to break the whole warm/cool rules.
Having bright bright blush!
I never wear mascara. Seriously, I never do. Applying mascara is simply futile on my short sparse lashes.
Bronzer in the winter! Better than tanning, right?
Blue eyeshadow on my blue eyes… love it!
I often curl my lashes after applying mascara. Besides that, I actually do stay within most “rules” that I can think of. Not because that’s what I’ve been told to do but they really work for me.
I love to break the rule that brown eyes should avoid wearing blue eyeshadow. Blue eyeshadow looks amazing on my dark brown eyes!!
I have green eyes but I love to wear green eyeshadow. I also love blue eyeshadow. Colour is fun!
I never curl my eyelashes, I know you are supposed to but I always skip that step
A rule I love to break is matching my eyeshadow to my outfit!
i love breaking the rule of shimmer on the lid then no shimmer as the highlight…sometimes i love all shimmer
I love all nude lipstick even if it’s not really my shade or matches my skintone.
i love to break the rule that women need makeup to be/look beautiful, because i think you are all beautiful regardless 🙂
Wearing red lipstick during the day!
I don’t like using makeup brushes. Fingers work so much better for concealer, and sponge applicators for eyeshadow is soooo much simpler. 🙂
I LOVE wearing too much blush!!
Beauty rule I break slot is not washing brushes enough.
I would have to say I put my concealer prior to my foundation
The rule I love to break is never wearing makeup to bed- I look more human when I wake up in the morning! Another is not wearing black mascara with blonde hair- break that daily 🙂
matching your eyeshadow with the colors youre wearing… COME ON, i LOVE that!
My skin has yellow undertones, but I wear cool makeup shades all the time. Just because you have a warm skintone doesn’t mean you can’t rock pinks, blues and purples. 🙂
I use my fingers to apply basically everything when I’m getting ready quickly in the morning.
I like matching my makeup with my outfit. I know you’re not supposed to but I like it and I like when I see other people do it too.
love to break the one that says dont wear matching eyes shadows and clothing. i do it almost all the time!!! ;P
i love to break the beauty rule of not having your roots showing. i like it when roots show, they give your hair more character because of the two colors and you give off a funky style vibe
i always break the rule, or well the general consensus, that you should apply blush to the apples of your cheeks. For me at least, the apples of my cheeks are already naturally red why add more color there? Putting blush on your cheek bones near the temples only gives one’s face a nice shape.
Sometimes I go out without any makeup on 🙂
any colours work on any skin tones, with any hair/eye colour… unlike what the rule says! just gotta work it right and woo hoo!
i like to break the ‘no matchy matchy rule’ I LIKE IT!! and also nude lip color with a bold eye. Sometimes a red or fuschia lip looks better than nude with smokey eyes
I wear a warm nude lip with cool toned eyes to make me look less washed out
i don’t always match my makeup to my clothes
I love bold colours! I sometimes even wear them to work 😡
Applying too much blush 🙂
I guess I sometimes wear too much bronzer and blush lol
Less is more is so outdated. I love lots of eyeshadows on my eyes especially if I’m wearing smokey eyes. Also with lipsticks, some are so sheer that I want to put two or three coats. 🙂
the rule where you shouldn’t have a bold lip and a bold eye
Rule I love to break: Cleaning brushes regularly!
I don’t feel bound to the rule that my polish and makeup have to match my outfit. I like doing the face/fingernails that I feel like at that moment!
Corals any time I want! Yes even in the dead of winter!
Hmm.. well when I don’t have time or I’m lazy, I wear shorts with my legs unshaved!
I don’t really think that’s a “good” rule to break though LOL.
I also like wearing summer makeup year round. When Fall comes along, you think plums and wines but I’ll still be rocking a nude lip during Christmas time. =)
sometimes…. (shhh)
I scratch at my skin when I wash my face. I know you really shouldn’t….but I like to feel that I’m destroying those pesky whiteheads~
I never do my hair, but I take a lot of time to do my make up!
Glitter! Yes I am 26 and yes I still love glittery eyeshadow and all its awesomeness!
That one where people think redheads shouldn’t wear pink or red. They’re my favourites and I rock them. =D
I’d love to break the rule about not wearing bold eyes with bold lips (or vice-versa). I think makeup should be fun and creative. I aim for classic elegance. As long as it looks good, who cares about the rules?
wearing no lip product even if I’m full face.
I sometimes pair a strong eye look with a bright red lipstick!
warmer skintones can rock cooler toned lipsticks n blushers !
i break the rule: colour with colour.
I wear dark/grey eyeshadows with bright lips (morange, toxic tale..)
🙂
Sometimes I like putting on my concealer after I’ve powdered because I find that it clings to my skin better. With the right application, it doesn’t cake!
I wear bold, colorful eyes to work in an office setting. I’m a renegade!
Smokey eyes with red lips, I don’t like nude lips on me…
I like to wear strong eys with strong lips. I’m no good at subtle 🙂
Bright red lips for a casual look; I keep hearing people say that it’s a formal thing, but I think if done right, it can too look casual!
The rule that you shouldn’t use coral lipsticks during the winter time…it gives me such “summer feelings” that I can’t resist!!
I love to break the don’t match your makeup with your clothes rule.I can’t help it I love to match everything lol
I’d like to break the rule that young girls(16) should’t wear dark lipsticks.
Wearing bold eyes and bold lips!
I never wear mascara!
I don’t curl my lashes, i don’t really see the point to it.
I don’t powder my cheeks before I apply blush.
A rule that I break more than I should is going to sleep with makeup on 🙁
no black eyelier with small eyes is the rule I love to break. If you use it in correct way without entering waterline too much, you can of course use black eyeliner with really small eyes
i would love to break the rule that i just can wear colors that goes with my skintone!
I know it’s horrible, but I always walk around with a wet head of hair! 🙁 I have curly, thick hair, and just don’t have to blowdry and style it in the morning before work (I have enough trouble waking up at 6am as it is!)… so in a ponytail it goes! It’s usually dry by lunchtime. 🙂
Glitter above the crease! Workkkkkk.
the rule I would break is “either the eyes, either the lips” I’d accentuate both of them.
I don’t believe in a “day time” look. If done properly, no one will bother classifying your look as “day time” or “night time.”
I use mascara on my lower lashes 🙂
I know most people start wearing darker colors during fall and into winter but I love wearing color. I think, the season is already sad looking enough, why not add a punch of color to brighten the season up?
Glitter eye liner after 40ish!
sometimes i use eyeshadow with balm as lipstick 😉
The two rules that I break the most are matching eye makeup with clothes and not washing off makeup before bed at night.
If I’m in a rush I never blend properly but that’s ok too ha ha! I also love to wear weird colours together and I don’t condition my hair half as much as I should!
For that special night I never want to end I still wear my makeup at bedtime – special guy – special treats and look
“Less is more” is total crap. I love dramatic winged liner (not Amy Winehouse-esque, though, mind you!) and a bright coral cheek. It looks sexy and youthful!
LOL, so ok, I think normal people apply the powder after applying all the cream products (as foundation and cream blush), but I always put the cream blush over the powder…bcs I forget :’D xDDDD
I definitely don’t wash my makeup brushes as often as I should. I have so many that I get lazy to do them often.
I never wear blush;$
The 3 point eyebrow shaping rule – it doesn’t suit my face type!!
I love wearing really bold makeup. So i like breaking the “keep it looking natural” rule 😀
Not matching your eyeshadows with what you are wearing… I ”accidently” do it all the time… Lol
I wear blue eyeshadow even though I have blue eyes, and I never ever wear powder, even to set my undereye concealer. My skin is just too dry!
I love breaking the “you can’t match your eyeshadow to your clothes”. I do it ever so often and it looks fab =)
all of them …. but especially the ‘rules’ about warm and cool complexions, and what eyeshadow, blush or lip colors they can wear … I am cool complexioned, but I definitely like warm colors (in moderation and balance) AND I mix cools and warms all the time. Sometimes if I do cool eyes, it needs a warmer cheek and lip to bring more vibrancy back to the face!
i guess i’m a rule follower. hope i can still play.
All of them? lol. At some point or another, I’ve broken a lot of the rules.
The rule I like to Break is that Red heads can’t wear Pink lipstick! If I want to wear Pink lip stick I will! haha
I wear every color eyeshadow. I don’t care brown eyes should stick to these colors thing…
I love to wear bright red lips with a dark smokey eye 😀 I have read and heard several places that this is too much, but I think it looks awesome on me.
love from Norway!
I like to just do what I feel.
I always curls my lashes after applying my mascara.
I wear smokey eyes with a bold lip
I don’t follow any rule when it comes to makeup…so I pretty much break any there are if I feel like what I’m wearing looks good lol.
I would love to break the rule where you either play your eyes or lips up not both! 😉
Smokey eyes and strong lips, why not?
I rarely curl my lashes before putting on mascara.
I know you’re “supposed” to just do a dramatic eye or bold lip, but sometimes I love to do both!
The beauty rule that I always end up breaking is not throwing make up out after their expiry date! Especially mascara! I don’t wear make up everyday and to finish a tube in 3 months is nearly impossible!
I love breaking the beauty rule of wearing eyecolors and lipcolors suited only to your skin tone. I like to have fun with makeup!
I always fall asleep with makeup on! :X
I never throw away make up when I should.
I love breaking the rule that eyesjadows should match your clothes, just dont see the piont…
I live for breaking the rule of “always wear bronzer to warm up your face.” I have never worn a bronzer or even purchased one!!
Bold eye and bold lip! I don’t do it often, but sometimes I can’t help it.
I like to break the rule that people over 45, with lines around their eyes, shouldn’t wear shimmer e/s or glitter e/s. If you are very careful, only use them on your lid, and are careful to clean up any fallout, they are great!
I like breaking the rule that a product only has one use. One product can have multiple uses. It doesn’t have to be used only for what it is advertised that it does.
Pairing dark, smoky, smoldering eyes with a sexy red lip.
Wearing too much blush, or too many colours on the face!
I would love to break the matching eye color and the clothing color!
I sometimes wear just a wash of color on my eyes instead of doing lid/crease/browbone.
I love breaking beauty rules… especially when it comes to color! I rarely follow the rules for my coloring, especially since I always wind up so tan during the summer (I don’t bake; I just spend a ton of time outside! But I guess that’s another beauty rule broken haha.)
strong eyebrows with strong eyecolor
I love doing dramatic eye AAAANNND dramatic lips! no need to play do either when all you really want is BOTH! haha
i don’t use blush brush. just use fingers
I like to go against the rule that lining eyes with black liner closes them off. I always rim my waterline in black and my eyes do not look small because of it.
I wear anything I want on my face, whether it’s too dark or visible from space.
seasonale color loooks!!! i love wearing all sorts of colorsss i dont wanna have to match it with the weather but yeah it would look crazy wearing summer bright eyeshadows in winter! lol but my moood wants it somedays but cant cause it not posssibleee:P
I usually break the one about tweezing the upper part of eyebrows.. and the blue eyeshadow one!
I like to break the rule that every product should be used for its specific purpose! I use lipstick as cream blush all the time!
gossmakeup artist on youtube said that this book was crap
Thank you for this giveaway. I love the break many beauty rules. I don’t believe that “rules” should even be, since all of us are so different and unique. Some examples of me being a rule breaker, is when I use lipstick on my eyes, and eyshadow on my lips. :0)
Ive heard youre blush is supposed to look natural…i love making my cheeks more dramatic!
I rarely every match my lip color to my eye shadow or cheeks. I just go with whatever I pick up. Usually it turns out great!
I break beauty rules all the time, especially the “don’t wear this color if you’re warm”.
The rule I like to break is lining your eyes all around with black liner. I’ve heard you shouldn’t do this because it makes your eyes look smaller, but I still do it 🙂
I like to mix black and brown!
i work in an office environment and i just love to go nuts with colour. I dont’ just like to stick to “neutrals”. 🙂
Life’s to short to wear brown lipstick, I like to pair red or pink lipstick with brown eyeshadow.
wearing bright eyeshadow with bright lips
They say you should save the bold and dramatic makeup for evening, but I say the more I look like a drag queen during the day the better. I feel so dumpy and everyone asks me if I’m sick or tired when I wear the “natural look”.
I don’t always leave bold eye makeup for night. Sometimes, a bold eye is great for a daytime thing
i do whatever i want, when i want! rules are meant for bending and breaking!
I wear shimmer/sparkle eyeshadow constantly, for everything. I just like it too much to go matte.
The beauty rule I love to break is “Don’t match your makeup to your clothes!” I often match my makeup to my clothes, I can’t help it!
When I do a smokey eye look most tell me to stay away from bright lips! I do it anyway! I have olive skin and I MAKE IT WORK! I love to pair a smokey eye with a hot candy apple red lip! Nude lips are boring!
I love using an eyeliner(usually brownborder tech.) in my crease and only blending it a little bit!
I love breaking the “no concealer over powder” rule, except I used a little of my foundation as concealer =P
i wear whatever colors i want
… I really don’t care if the color of the eyeshadow goes with my eye color…
I love to break the rule that you need powder over foundation to set it. I never wear powder. My foundation is enough & it stays put.
I never put sunscreen on.. I know I should =(
“My” broken rule seems to be a very popular broken rule 😉
Because I also love dark, black smokey eyes with a really strong red lipstick – of course just for special events. But then I love to break the beauty rule
Well I once heard the rule (back in my formative makeup years) that blue eyeshadow should be illegal and never to use it… well, it’s taken time and patience (to find the right shade) but it’s a rule that I definitely break now 😀
I love applying eyeliner/pencil on my waterline and not matching my makeup with my outfit !
filling in your eyebrows 2 shades lighter than your hair color if you have dark hair. i just think it looks weird that my eyebrows and my hair arent the same color…
I pretty much break all the rules lol. But the one I break the most is wearing the wrong lipstick shade for my skintone.
Actually, I’m mostly wearing my concealer underneath my makeup… yeah, I know, it’s useless – but I do it all the time!
I love an evening eye during the day. Nothing is better then smokey purples and onyx when you’re running errands or shopping.
I’ve heard that you shouldn’t use lip liner anymore, but I do. I love the lip liner and lip gloss combo.
Once I heard Carmindy say you should never use more than 3 eyeshadows. I love breaking that rule everyday!
A beauty rule I always break is I always forget to use sunscreen.. but I don’t love to break it! So one rule I love to break is that I always brush my hair with a big brush, I never use a comb… my hair is really nice, and I always used a brush and it worked out, so why use a comb?
I love breaking the rule of neutral/pastel nail color or French manicures in the office. I wear bold, dark nail colors when I want to. It still looks professional and not over the top like I’m ready for the club.

I like to wear all shimmer finish on my eyes.
Green eyes with green eyeshadow, a redhead wearing red lipstick!
RED LIPS. RED LIPS EVERYWHERE.
It is so disheartening to see so many beautiful, beautiful red lipsticks out there and never worn! So many women shove their nose up at them since it’s not a sociably acceptable color, and is not appropriate for business wear, office wear, ect… I know the brightest color I can get away with at work is a deep fushia… seriously?
People (the public–) can sometimes be very fearful of bright colors and find them distasteful.
Let’s bring the red lip back! :)))
I like to apply blush where I would normally apply my bronzer and then a highlight color on my cheekbones. Also, I have naturally jet black hair so I like to use a light hand with MAC’s Typographic to fill in my brows. Anything with brown just looks unnatural. =]
I like to keep my mascaras longer than 3 months and use them until they are just absolutely dried out 🙂
I hardly can be bothered with lip product… even after doing full smoky eye.
I have stopped wearing a lipliner!
I love breaking the eye makeup rules for Asians! I don’t do special shading to make it look like I have a bigger crease–love my eyes!
The rule I love to break is to do eye makeup before foundation. I’m
A creature of habit!
the exceptional contouring for regular days rule, i contour my entire face ( very well i might add) every day, chin, neck, collar bones, cheek bones, temples, nose, lips, eye contours. because i think the subtle shadow really draws attention to my face, making it the focus of my entire look. 🙂
keeping mascara more than 3 months!
What eyeshadow color you can’t wear for a certain skintone
For face, I don’t use primer, I just don’t like it. For my nails, I do crazy things, like not matching hands, different colors and patterns, and I really don’t care if someone thinks it’s “off” a bit. It’s fun to do anyway.
I break the rule that not everything has to match what you’re wearing. I’ll do green eyes when I wear a purple shirt 🙂
that whole warm tones cool tones rule..i always ignore it!
I break the “rules” of nail polish! I wear neons in winter! 🙂
i like to break the too much blush rule. 🙂
I never wear blush.
People tend to say that those will pale skin should use light brown or gray eyeliner instead of black…but not me! I love the way it makes my green eyes pop against my light skin.
The one “rule” I would break is washing off the makeup!!! I follow on twitter as @naudii and I tweeted: http://twitter.com/naudii/status/26690818963
I hope I win this my birthday is 10/10/10 how awesome is that!
I like to curl my eyelashes after I put on mascara first…
wearing both a dark lip and a dark eye.
I love doing a smokey eye look with a bold pink lipcolor! i love the smokey eye 🙂
I love to match my eyeshadow with my outfit. I actually find it more flattering, and I get many more compliments that way!
I feel like red lipstick is “supposed to be” reserved for dressing up, but I love wearing red lipstick even on days I’m not at all dressed up. Actually I love it *especially* on casual days – it packs an extra punch!! 🙂
I like to wear heavy blush. I don’t wear concealer, which I don’t really need it (yet).
one rule i’d love to break is the black/brown mascara rule! i love being funky and use navy on my top and bottom or mix it up and have like black on top and blue on bottom, blue on top and green on bottom!
I always curl my eyelashes after I apply mascara. I know it’s bad for them, but it makes my eyelashes look super curled and long 🙂
the rule that says I can’t wear blue eyeshadow with my blue eyes!!!
Not wearing dramatic make up during the day. Sometimes I just need a pick me up and if it makes me feel better, I’ll do it!
I like matching my clothes with my makeup.
Curling my lashes after applying mascara as opposed to before. My lashes hold the curl better this way.
Natural makeup, schmatural makeup – bring out your inner drag queen!
Using lipstick as a blush.
Wearing Smokey eyes throughout the day!!!
I love breaking the rule where they say certain color eyes can only wear certain color shadows.
that you should wear certain colors depending on your eye color. I LOVE wearing all different colors!!
The you must wear SPF every day no matter what. I get why but anything with SPF breaks me out. Thus, if I’m not spending the day outdoors I don’t wear it.
I like to break the rule of really smokey eyes in the day time who cares if it looks good wear it right..
I love use red luxurious lips in day light
I love blush galore. The more the better!
One rule that I love to break is having super short and bright nails that dont fit in with the winter season… I dont are that long nails are in as long as I’m happy and most importantly comfortable!
I’ve been told a million times that I should line my lips if I’m wearing reds or dark colors but I never do and I think it looks just fine 😉
I wear smokey eyes all day, every day. To work, to the grocery store, etc. I can’t live without black eyeliner every day either.
I like to use my highlighting powder on areas other than my cheekbones!
I love to break the regular face-washing routine. I use a face wash maybe once every other week. Other than that, I just splash some water on my face in the shower, and my skin is as clear and healthy as can be! It’s not always about the products. 😉
There are two actually that I love to break. First is not to wear bright blue eyeliner because it looks 80s or whatever. But I love blue eyeliner with tons of mascara to break up the blue a bit. The second is not to wear strong eye make up with strong lips. I’d rock a smokey eye with fushia hot pink lips any day!
I LOVE to wear stuff I “can’t” wear cuze I’m so pale !
I love to break the rule about matching what you wear to your eyeshadow color!
Glitter isn’t only for teens. 🙂
Sometimes I like to break the rule that you shouldn’t color coordinate your eyeshadow with your outfit. Sometimes it’s fun to match! lol
I love to break the “nude lipstick” rule when I have a smokey eye. What is wrong with a plummy brown lip or or a cherry red glossy lip as long as it is glossy?
I love breaking “color rules.” I wear hot pink nails and lips all year long!
I don’t like foundations and blush. I just do my eyes and lips. Don’t care if it’s a rule to paint my face or not. 🙂
Wearing crazy eyeliner colors during the day!
I love to break the rule that you should wear less makeup as you get older. Hogwash! I need makeup to not look dead!
The rule I break.. I don’t line my waterline. Not a good look on me!
Blue eyeshadow, I love the look of a smoky midnight blue and silver eye. Though I might be tempted to rock a frosted blue eye for retro fun!
i love wearing bright nail polish in the fall. nothing stops me 😉
I wear night time smokey looks to school during the day (I’m a music student though…so it’s sort of okay)
I really never consider my skin tone when buying products or wearing them! I’m very pale and have a cool skin tone but love bright blushes!
I break the if u have a shimmery eyeshadow look don’t use a shimmery brow bone highlight lol I always do I love it
Bold eyes and bold lips together!
in college, almost no one wears make up. at all.
but i still love mine. its not that i necessarily need to wear makeup, its just that i love it too much.
i hate getting stared at though. i mean i’m only wearing woodwinked, mulch, eyeliner and mascara! calm down people.
unless they think it looks good. lol.
I like to break all rules at one time or another, makeup for me is about expression, fun, and experimentation, not rules!
haha! i just love the question. i’d go for lipstick on the eyes. that’s the one that most people seem to look at me like i’m crazy for. i get it… BUT… whenever i say something like, “this lipstick color looks great on the eyes” and another MUA actually looks at me like i’m batty?! i get a little snooty. lol!
I love wearing eyeshadow that matches my clothes…. it just turns out that way. I never plan on it. I’m just a habitual eyeshadow matcher.
Wearing bright blue eyeshadow…sometimes I just can help it and I get a bit crazy with the blues…lol
I like the break the beauty rule of putting white around the tear ducts of my eyes to ‘brighten’ it. I think it looks silly!
i wore a smokey eye to school once..
who says you can’t pull off dark colors at 8am?
LOL
I sometimes match my makeup to my clothes…. But I love when I don’t 😀
I love breaking the rule of wearing smokey eyes
I love breaking the rule about the colors of eyeshadows that I can wear… I think any eyecolor can pull off any shadow with the right application and shade…
wearing any colour i like instead of what ‘matches’ my skintone
I break the rule about wearing the same eyeshadow as your clothes. Sometimes my clothes determine how I’ll do my makeup
I love to break the beauty rule of “Less is more”.
I like to wear what colors I want to instead of what goes with my skintone or eyecolor.
I always break the dont match eyeshadow to whatyour wearing…if it goes its good to go!!!
Wearing smoky eyes during the daytime. My eyes are my favorite feature so why not enhance them whenever and wherever??!
I hate the don’t match your eyeshadow to your outfit rule. If I want to wear purple eyeshadow with a purple top with it i will!
Squeezing/touching your pimples. I’ve actually been breaking this rule but it’s so hard to stop! At least I wash my hands and fingernails and then put some antiseptic on the pimple after I do it before I do it but still…
I’d give anything to be able to touch my eye area more without the scare of “crepe-ing” with age and damaging the sensitive skin there.
I pretty much like to break all the rules. I sometimes use lipstick as blush, blush as eyeshadow, and so on. I feel make up is art and an expression of our true inner beauty. I do it for fun and I love the way I look. If we all applied the same way and followed the same rules there would be no variety and we would all look like drones. My two cents! Thanks Temptalia!
I wear glitter everywhere, and I’m over 30. I heard I wasn’t supposed to be doing that.
Oops? 😉
My personal beauty rule is red lips for holidays only. I just feel like I can’t pull of a red lip on ant given day, I would love to dare myself to try it.
The most common one I break is matching my eyeshadow with my clothes.
Sometimes I like to wear a bright bold lipcolor, and a bright bold eye look! I think in the right application, it can look gorgeous, not overdone.
SOMETIMES wearing the same color eyeshadow as what your wearing. I wouldn’t overemphasize the colors on the eye but I like to have just a hint of it on my eyes to match my clothes… ;O)
i would love to break the bold lip and bold eyes rule!
I apply eyeshadow with my fingers sometimes. Naughty girl.
According to Marie Claire, one of the new beauty rules is never leaving your house without a fake tan. Um, no, I like my skin white just fine.
I’ll wear glittery e/s during the day when I’m feeling a lil down…it makes me feel better!
I want to break the “bold lips and bold eyes” or you can’t have enough brown eyeshadow even though your eyes are brown.
I think I break most of ’em. Beauty is too individual to have rules . . . and I love my makeup to match my clothes!
I’d like to break the rule of not having to wear sunscreen all the time.
I love to wear too much blush!
Any rule pertaining to what colors/finishes somebody should or shouldn’t wear. Wear whatever colors and whatever finishes you want! Wanna wear sparkles head to toe? Go for it. Makeup is about fun, not about rules and constraints.
That you can’t wear a smokey eye with red lips!
I love to use too much blush
Sticking to only cool or warm tones because of your skincolor. If it looks good, wear it!
I break the rule that you have to wear moisturizer all the time! Sometimes I don’t wear it to bed because in the summer when I do I always end up really oily when I wake up so I skip it then but in the winter it’s a must. I always, always, always (did I mention always lol!) wear an eye cream though no matter what.
I pretty much break them all! I’m pretty unconventional and feel at the end of the day if it works for me, I’m doing it!
you know your supposed to curl your lashes before you put on mascara? i always forget and get my lash curlers covered in mascara!
Strong eye and strong lip!!
I love pairing smoky eyes with bold red lips, and if I’m feeling particularly Goth, I swap out the red for a nice, deep plum.
I have blue eyes, and I break the rule about wearing blue eyeshadow. I like to put a little pop of aqua in the crease, and I think it makes my eyes stand out.
I love smokey eyes with red/strong lip colour and not applying a mosturizer before make up.
I do pluck above my eyebrows
i use my fingers to put eyeshadows
What rules?????
shhh I know its naughty but i love to give an extra boost of curl to my lashes by using the eyelash curler after mascara application tut tut
Curling my lashes after mascara
a beauty rule that i always break is i love wearing smokey eyes to work and i always do!
I sometimes apply cream products on top of powders. First it was by “mistake,” but then I noticed how nice it can look, especially highlighters. Thanks for the opportunity!
I love wearing bright, night looks during the day, even to work sometimes!
Matching! It drives me nuts when my mom acts like it’s a problem that my nail polish doesn’t match my outfit. Who cares? If I’m not dressing up, and both the outfit and the lacquer are pretty, why does it matter?
I never match colors to my skin color, I just wear what I want! (not to say that it always turns out great) 😛
i break many all the time. i dont wear sunscreen everyday, i only wash my face once a day and most importantly… i do pick on my pimples. lol
I like to wear what colors I want to instead of what is in for the season
Going completely all out with dramatic eyes, face,and lips (even hair and clothes??) someday…maybe someday..would definately be fun!
Having to fill in my brows. Sorry, I can’t pull it off. I actually like to bleach them!
Wearing dark eyeshadow and bright lips ^^
I always break the matching makeup to clothes. Makeup is meant to be fun!
i dont focus on what colors go with my skintone i wear whatever i want to wear!
I love wearing blue eyeshadow with my blue eyes! People say blue eyeshadow looks dated, but just a hint of midnight or conflower blue on the lash line or crease really makes my eyes pop.
I don’t like to be limited to using only eyeshadows that compliment my eye color!
The rule I love to break is the “don’t wear dark smokey eyes during the daytime” rule. I believe in wearing whatever you want to wear whenever you want to wear it!
I love to break the dark eye & dark lip rule – you can do both under the right circumstances.
Sometimes I don’t apply moisturizer before makeup if my skin is feeling extra oily…
Don’t follow any rule, believe in your own beauty.
i love breaking the rules with my brows. sometimes i fill in my brows, lightly with a lavender or cranberry colored eye/lip pencil to add a sultry creative look to my brows.
The rule I would break is warm tones not wearing cool tone colors. If the color looks good on you try it!! I’d also say the rule that dark skinned ladies cannot wear red. If you find the right shade, and tone for your skintone it will look great.
I like to wear smokey eyes and bold lips, even though I’ve been told repeatedly that it’s a big no-no.
I use regular lightweight lotion on my face & body rather than a pricey under eye cream, etc
tweet http://twitter.com/pelletposy/status/26875047794 thanks
Sometimes I’ll wear a dramatic eye with a dramatic lip! Usually at night though.
id love to break the rule on wearing more dramatic makeup, such as darker eyes and more pronounced make up at night, why not wear it during the day when you feel like it as well?! 😉
I live wearing a “night” look during the day. I think a smokey eye works all the time.
I love the break the rule of applying sunblock in the morning when I woke up late.
The rule I always break is plucking my brows I guess. I like the sorta retro look (ie Gwen Stefani) that filled in brows offer.
I love using products for other than their intended use, like under-eye brightener as an eyeshadow wash!
i like to use alot of eyeliner, like CRAZY amounts of eyeliner
I love to break the rule of no primer on my eyes! Oopps! Haha
I’m not sure if it is really a rule but I prefer to use face powder as a brow highlight instead of eyeshadow. It’s matte and I know it will match my skin!
I love wearing a strong lips with lots of blush
Bold eye and bold lips! I am a stay at home mama, it makes me feel bold!
Curling my eyelashes AFTER I put on mascara!
I am terrible at keeping track of and throwing out “expired” make-up. For example, I can’t remember how old my current mascara is. But it’s still working fine!
I like to occasionally wear a darker brown lip liner with a lighter frostier tone on my lips. For some strange reason, I like when my lip liner is obvious.
i like breaking the matching makeup to clothes rule 😮
I break the “dark eye/nude lip” duo. I totally do a dark eye and a bold lip 😛
lots of blush! everything else is kept simple, of course ;]
I heard from somewhere that you shouldn’t match your eyeshadow to your outfit. I almost always prefer it!
I <3 wearing bold lips during the day!
I combine whichever colors I think will create the effect I want for my eyes regardless of the palette they are from. Some of the best come from mixing it up.
i tent to break the rule of pulling my eye when putting on my eyeliner..my lashes are too long to get through them!
Strong eyes and strong lips 😡
I think I’m a goody two-shoes. I don’t break any rules. 😀
I love breaking the rule that you have to look “together” all around. I almost always do a full makeup look but rarely touch my hair at all.
strong eyes and bold lips 😛
i like to break the rule to just wear colors for your skin tone since that can be so limiting!
I love to break the rule of having to pair the same color eyeliner as the shadow. Green liner and purple shadows can look awesome together.
I love wearing dramatic eyes with “raccoon” eyeliner, i purposely smudge it…and a red lip
Not doing a bold eye and a bold lip!
I never ever wear blush
At night time I will use two strong focal points on the face instead of one. I will do a strong lipcolor with vibrant eyeshadow.
Wearing colors that are not specifically for my eye color
No dramatic eyes in the daytime– omg! ;D I do this all the time, why do we have to be boring in the day?! I never am! 🙂
I don’t wear blush because my skin tone looks pinkish at times so usually I skip applying blush to avoid looking like I’m sun-burned.
The “Do not match makeup to your clothes” rule. I always do it, and wear eyeshadow that matches whatever color shirt I’m wearing! 😀
I wear smokey eyes during the day or at work! Who says I can’t? 😛
I work in a conservatie job as a mental health social worker/case manager…and I would do the smoky eye (usually either navy or bronzes)at work. (currently i am on maternity leave with my baby). I ‘m all about doing what i feel like with the makeup mood for the day! this might be a little against the grain with the other boring sw’s!
i absolutely refuse to wear lipliner. i’ve got an odd shaped mouth, and no matter how carefully i line, or the sweet MUA at a product counter lines, it inevitably winds up looking like clown mouth within 30 min. lipstick stays within it’s boundaries with a little primer potion, and i don’t fear looking like Bozo the Clown in photos.
bright color eyeshadows during the day. If I want to wear mac’s lucky green I am going to wear it. I do not care what time of day it is.
I love to break the rule that you can’t wear dark, bold eyes during the day!
I always forget to moisturize at night… and then I feel guilty afterwards!
I know some looks are considered “day” looks and some are “night” out only looks but I do my makeup early in the morning and do dramatic eyeshadow like if I’m going clubbing.
I would love to wear dark eye look with a bright lip color
I like the smokey eyes during the day. Sometimes it’s just a smokey eye day!
found exact foundation for my skin
Less is not always more. I keep trying to only line my waterline with eyeliner, but it definitely does not work with me. I’ll have to stick with my cateye, even with bold eye shadows.
i should clean my brushes a lot more than i actually do . whoops.
I love to wear bold red lips and a smoky eye with a simple outfit
