How did people figure out how to do makeup before YouTube? Did you just have to rely on magazines, the network of word-of-mouth of girls in your life, and a little intuition? That must have had people looking like an absolute mess. Learning how to properly line your eyes is not as intuitive as it seems. Not to mention filling in your brows or doing a smoky eye.

But now any 9-year-old can log on and absorb the skills of a seasoned MUA, or at least start on their journey. It's kind of scary. But that doesn't mean we don't still need the professionals around. Glam squads are more in demand than ever since every day is an opportunity to do it for the gram. But whether you're a Sephora newbie or an in-demand makeup artist, you'll enjoy these memes that remind you that we all know the pain of getting a smudge of mascara on your eyeshadow.
