...Would she end up looking like a clown? I was wondering since I can't recall her ever using makeup, and she can be rather... self-assured about her efforts.

This question should never have been asked, because the answer is obvious if you actually read Ranma 1/2 and make observations about Akane's character.
fanon
character bashing
ignorance
You can't point to observable, canon character traits or events and use them as a basis for a question to get someone else's opinion?

Pretty much the entirety of the fanon about Akane comes from fanfiction bashing her.
Fanon Akane can't ever do anything right but is deluded that she is flawless,
which is where your question came from. Assuming that Akane would, naturally, fail at anything she tried.
If you were doing this you never would have asked the question.
An "observable canon character trait" for Akane is that she's a really well dressed person, with a wide good looking wardrobe and a fashion sense. The idea that she'd be unable to put on makeup is absurd if you look at how she takes care of her personal appearance.

Most of it is usually done for shipping purposes in order to push Ranma to another girl. I'm not saying that every fanfiction needs to go with the canon girl. I'd be lying if I said my own preferences line up perfectly with canon in every series I watch. But you don't need to needlessly bash a character to do a different pair.
