8 Celebrities Who Wear Way Too Much Eye Makeup
Published on June 9, 2014. Updated June 2, 2017Almost all celebrities are blessed with superior genetics. They typically have great skin and amazing facial structure; however, in spite of this, many of them wear ridiculous amounts of makeup. Smoky eyes are big in Hollywood right now. Many stars like this look, but some of them completely overdo it. Rather than take advantage of their natural beauty, they hide it as though it’s something they’re ashamed of. Some celebrities really need to wear less eyeliner, mascara and eye shadow and they also need to put away the false lashes. Here is our list of the top 8 celebrities who wear too much eye makeup!
8. Taylor Momsen
Taylor Momsen looked so wholesome and sweet during the first season of “Gossip Girl.” Unfortunately, she seems to have tired of that look and instead went for something far edgier. Now that she is a bona fide rock star, she goes for a more dramatic look, which includes excessive amounts of eyeliner and eye shadow. Momsen wears more eye makeup than any other celebrity, which is really sad considering that she has such a pretty face under all those layers of makeup.

Katie Price already has a plastic sort of look. She looks like she dabbles in Botox and has had a couple other plastic surgery procedures done to her face. The former reality star also piles on the eye makeup. Her mascara often looks chunky and her eye shadow and eyeliner look caked on. Price recently claimed that she doesn’t wear any makeup anymore. “The older you get, the less interested in make-up you are. A smoky eye is ageing and with four kids, the last thing on my mind is make-up.” Sounds like a boldfaced lie to us!

Kim Kardashian has become known for wearing excessive amounts of eye makeup. She almost always sports fake eyelashes and it doesn’t stop there. She mounts on the eye shadow and eyeliner, which gives her raccoon eyes. The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star is genetically blessed, so it doesn’t make a lot of sense why she piles on the makeup like this. The only thing this could possibly mean is that she is really insecure and feels better hidden under layers of makeup.

Christina Aguilera is naturally beautiful. On the rare occasions that she is spotted without makeup, she looks great; however, these instances are rare. She usually piles on the eye makeup – specifically foundation – which gives her a really artificial look. Her eyelashes almost always look fake and she hasn’t quite learned how to tastefully apply eye shadow and eyeliner. We are going to give the “Dirrty” singer the benefit of the doubt – this is her makeup artist’s fault.

Lil’ Kim has always worn a ridiculous amount of eye makeup. According to her, it takes hours for her makeup artist to finish her look, which isn’t surprising given the amount of makeup this person has to apply to her face. The former rap star looks pretty plastic these days and it isn’t just because she wears fake lashes. She looks very different from the women who popped onto the rap scene in the ‘90s, which can only mean one thing – plastic surgery.

Pamela Anderson has been all about the smoldering eye look since the ‘90s, which makes her something of a pioneer; however, there are some obvious problems with this, mainly that she hasn’t learned how to tastefully do her eye makeup. After all these years, she still loads on the mascara, eye shadow and eyeliner and it isn’t pretty. The former “Baywatch” star definitely needs a makeover, which to us means she needs to let go of the heavy eye makeup and embrace a more natural look.

Snooki really likes to pile on the makeup and she doesn’t go anywhere without it, including the gym. She has become known for her dark and smoldering eye makeup; however, we think she really overdoes it. The dark eyes – and excessive tanning – make her face look dirty. Now that she is done with “Jersey Shore” and is pregnant with her second child, she really needs to clean up her look. One place to start would be with the heavy eye makeup – get rid of it!

Nicki Minaj is pretty adventurous when it comes to her hair and makeup. We’ve concluded that she likes everything to be over the top – from her clothes to her hair and makeup. While we’re used to seeing her with colorful wigs and thick, heavy eye makeup, it would be nice to see what she looks like without any of it. She is obviously an attractive young women and all of the products distract from her natural beauty.
