While most red carpet fails are wardrobe malfunctions, some celebrities experience a different kind of embarrassing moment, when their makeup looks really bad in front of the photographers’ flashlights.
See a few of the most memorable red carpet makeup fails, from Angelina Jolie to Lindsay Lohan, makeup mistakes that completely ruined their look. Makeup artists may have their bad days, but these red carpet fails are still remembered because they would have been really easy to prevent.
Angelina Jolie’s Makeup Fail: Powder Problem
The actress turned director has had her fair share of makeup issues, but they mostly have to do with an excess of translucent powder. Joining Brad Pitt on the red carpet at the New York premiere of “The Normal Heart”, Angelina Jolie showed off a lot of white on her chin, cleavage and shoulders.
Unfortunately, it isn’t even an isolated incident, since her makeup artist also used too much powder on her legs during one of the “Maleficent” photocalls.
Miley Cyrus’s Makeup Fail: Joker Look
Few red carpet makeup fails are as cringe worthy as Miley Cyrus’s powder problem that made her look like the iconic Batman villain. With too much translucent powder around her mouth, chin and jawline, Miley looked less than her best at Maxim’s Hot 100 party in Hollywood on May 15, 2020.
Jennifer Aniston’s Foundation Issue
Most makeup mistakes happen on the faces of celebrities, but Jennifer Aniston surprised photographers at the “Call Me Crazy” premiere with some really weird marks on her back. The foundation or concealer used to hide 5 circles on her back backfired, and made the areas even more visible. The marks were probably caused by cupping, used to boost circulation, but Aniston should have known better than to schedule her treatment right before a red carpet premiere.
