Question:
How do I keep my eyeliner from smudging? I wear good foundation and concealer, but my eyes look like they have been out all night, while the rest of my face is glowing!

Answer:
“To start, you need to determine if it’s actually your eyeliner or your mascara that’s smudging,” says Richard Dean, make-up artist with Max Factor. “If your mascara is the culprit, look for a waterproof mascara, but if it’s your eyeliner that’s causing the smudging, look for one that is wax based.
Alternatively, try using an eyeshadow instead of an eyeliner on the lash line because it’s less likely to smudge. Use a very small brush to apply the colour along the lash line and blend into the lashes. Eyeshadow does have a tendency to fade, but it’s less likely to smudge and gives a very soft, pretty effect.
