Getting an effect like the one above with traditional lip products would be nigh on impossible for anyone other than a dedicated makeup artist. So companies like Violent Lips have created appliqués that come in all sorts of interesting patterns, like technicolor florals, ombré oxblood reds, and flag motifs.
Many also make eyeliner stickers in statement shapes and colors, like glittery cat eyes and extreme winged styles. The idea is that it's a more precise way to get a bold look without mismatching your pesky liquid liner on each eye.
Both of these products apply like temporary tattoos, which got me wondering about their actual performance. I employed the help of a few intrepid BuzzFeed staffers to help me find out what happens when you put weird plastic all over your face in the name of BEAUTY.
