Anybody know any good word that mean 'to make ugly'? I was thinking of 'debeautification' but I'm pretty sure that word does not exist...I am looking for a word that means this in Spanish.

Se me ocurren los verbos "afear" y "empeorar".

¿Qué tal desgraciar, frustrar, disgustar, estropear, perjudicar, escacharrar, y malograr?

Mi madre mi hace feo fácilmente. How would I use "afear" in that context?
