Disappearing eye makeup!
  • Am I the only one who suffers from this mysterious affliction? Everytime I wear eyeshadow or pencil eyeliner, by the end of the day it's all GONE! Even if I don't rub my eyes or cry or ANYTHING. In the morning I'll put on some pencil eyeliner, go about my day, and by the time I'm home and I look in the mirror, it looks like I haven't even put on any makeup at all. Where does it go?! And what can I do to stop this??
  • This has happened to me. Using different products seemed to help. I was using L'Oreal eyeshadow -- now I use Revlon Colorstay and Ulta's eyeshadows. I also use the colorstay eyeliner (automatic pencil), as well as Jane's mineral gel eyeliner (cheap but quite effective!). Sometimes my eye makeup will be faded by the end of the day...but it is still there! Another thing I do is use foundation or concealer on my eyes before I put on my makeup (since I'm currently too cheap to by a primer) which seems to help things stay put better.

    Hope that helps some.
  • Eye primer really does help. I've used Urban Decay, Trish MacEvoy and Too Faced and they all work.  I don't use pencil eyeliners but putting powder eyeshadow over gel liner helps to keep it all in place.
