The Best Reaction GIFs For Your Beauty Meltdowns

There are some scenarios where mere words cannot do justice to the vast array of emotions we're feeling. In those times of turmoil, only a GIF will do. And, it is our humble opinion that there's no moment that deserves to be GIF'ed more than when you're at your most vulnerable — when your beauty game goes haywire. Yes, from haircuts gone wrong to pushy perfume spritzers, beauty screw-ups can cause a whole host of intense reactions.

But, which GIF can most accurately convey the true depths of your primping-induced despair? You can't throw out just any old one — you need something that captures the essence perfectly.
