    Like the rest of the thumb-scrolling world, I tag my friends in at least ten Instagram posts a day. Typically, this consists of sure-to-be-viral Kardashian moments and funny beauty posts. The latter because they are so. dead. ON. I've come to realize that the online beauty community loves one thing above contouring and that's making fun of itself. 

    Because hair and makeup pitfalls are their own genre of comedy, please see all the beauty-centric memes we've double tapped as of late.
