When And Why You Look The WORST, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Not your best look.
weheartit If we’re being brutally honest, there are some days where we look awful. Most of the time you’re on the top of your game and you’ve got it together and you look great.
Unfortunately, we can't win at the looks game every single minute of every single day. Sh*t happens — we drink too much, get too little sleep or we get completely stressed out.
No matter how much you may try to be on point with your look, there are going to be days where you’re going to fail.
And doesn’t it always seem that the days that you look the worst are the days that you run into that guy you’ve been crushing on or you have an emergency meeting with a client? Why is it when we look our best that that’s the day where we have nothing scheduled and don’t have to leave the house at all?
Sometimes you need to ride through the bad hair, the stained outfits, and the feeling like crap days just to fully appreciate the days when you feel and look great. Also, when you look your worst and you run into that person you’ve been flirting with, and they don’t run away from you screaming, you know that they probably are interested in more than just your looks.
Perhaps the days when we don’t look good are to remind us that we’re more than how we look and that someone who is only happy to see us when we’re looking hot really isn’t someone we want to spend too much time with.
Relationships are about going through the good times and the bad with someone that you can trust and who has your back. If they’re only interested in you when things are good and you’re looking hot, then they aren’t relationship material.
Here’s the time when you're not your best self, based on your zodiac sign.

You don't wear jealousy well. When you get jealous, you turn into a green-eyed monster and it's not a good look for you.

Picture someone who is about to explode with jealousy and you'll know how you appear to others.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)

You're not your best or very attractive when you're drunk. You can hold your liquor pretty well but sometimes you just have to let loose and you drink too much. Unfortunately, it's your looks that pay the price. Your eyes get bloodshot, your skin gets gray, and your hair is sticky with either your vomit or spillage from whatever you were drinking. Alcohol is a depressant, so when you're not throwing up, you're crying and losing control.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)

You're one of those people who, when they get upset, experiences it with their whole body. You're an ugly crier, complete with snot running down your face. You get so upset that you toss and turn and don't get too much sleep, and instead of brushing your hair, you tend to let it get into a snarled mess resembling more of a rat's nest than a hair style. Yeah, emotionally upset isn't your best look.

LEO (July 23 - August 22)
istock
Most of the time you're on point and fashion-forward. You know how to work with what you've got and what you need to embellish it, but all that goes out the window when you're involved in a scandal or some other kind of controversy. It's the one time that you don't enjoy being the center of attention. You feel attacked and maligned and you just want to go to bed and stay there until everything blows over.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
istock
You don't look good when you're obsessing over how you look and being too hypercritical with yourself. When you're not practicing self-love and just focusing on how you have a crooked tooth or that you're too skinny. Confidence is something that makes one beautiful and when you don't have that, even if you're the most beautiful person in the world, there's a dullness that takes the shine right off you.

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
istock
You look your worst after a fight. You hate fighting but sometimes you can't avoid it and afterward, you're empty and possibly devastated. It takes a lot for you to recover from a fight, even if it's only verbal and not at all physical. You internalize all those negative emotions that you should have expressed but probably didn't and you're a mess. You need to go lie down and calm yourself.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
istock
You look your worst when you're lost. You like to be in control and when you lose your bearings, you get extremely agitated. When your GPS isn't working, watch out — you'd rather drive around in circles getting more and more frustrated rather than ask directions. You start to sweat, your makeup runs, and you have been known to pull on your hair. The "lost look" isn't your best.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
istock
You know how some people have an after-sex glow? Well, that's not you. You look like a mess after sex — a happy, satisfied, lets-do-it-again mess but a mess all the same. Your lips are swollen, your hair is going in 10 different directions, your skin is flushed, and your makeup is so smeared you look like a deranged clown.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
istock
You're not your best when you've been working all day and night on a project. You haven't had any sleep and have been pretty much living on coffee. You're exhausted and although you're happy to have accomplished what you set out to do, you kind of look like crap. Your clothes are wrinkly and creased, your hair is a mess and all your makeup sunk back into your pores hours ago.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
istock
You don't look very attractive when you've been traveling for a while. If it's just a short trip say from New York to Pittsburgh, no problem, you'll step off that plane looking hot, but if it's a red-eye or a trip to Asia or Europe, you'll look as if you've been run over by a train. You don't like feeling confined for too long and it's difficult for you to sleep on the plane. Plus, you won't buy the airline food but will have forgotten to get something at the airport to eat, so you'll be starving by the time you get to your destination.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
istock
You look your worst when you're worried about someone you love. When you're anxious and concerned about someone it expresses itself in your whole body. The tension that you're feeling is visible in your entire body and it makes you appear constricted and in pain. You're focused on your loved one not on fixing your hair or putting on lipstick.
