Makeup tricks: getting eyeliner to stay on longer?

i hate when it rubs off


and i look like a loser.


know any ways to get it to stay on longer?


i already wear ColorStay eyeliner.Makeup tricks: getting eyeliner to stay on longer?
I use Maybeline. They come in a two pack and the eyeliner stick is red, but they color of the actual eyeliner is either black or brown. I use a lighter to warm the tip, let it dry, then apply. It goes on smoother that way. It doesn't smear. But make sure if you use the lighter to let it go on easy to make sure that it's close to being dry so it doesn't leak on your face.Makeup tricks: getting eyeliner to stay on longer?
Use a primer underneath all your eye make-up, I like Urban decay primer potion ($16 at Sephora)





I would try switching eyeliner too, I have found that the powder eyeliner stays a heck of a lot longer than the crayons or pencils. I mix a bit of the powder with a drop of saline or if I really want it to stay a liner sealer (I use the bare minerals but smash box makes one too)


With the liner sealer, I can do my make-up at 8am and it last all day and night.





Bare Minerals makes my favorite eyeliner shadow, It's a dark plum color. I hear Mac makes a great liner now too, as does Too Faced.
use less, dont put it on super thick, cuz its morelikely to run and look silly then.


Also, try using a darker mascara, mascara helps to bring out eyes better.


';waterproof'; eyeliners do exist, if you want to try them.


Try putting the liner only on the outisde half of your eye, it will make your eyes look wider, and wont be consuming your whole eye.
use a primer. Urban decay potion primer and too face shadow insurance are good ones.


Put on your eyeshadow first, then put on your liner. Next, set it with a matte black shadow and small brush. Basically, just follow the line you made with the liner. It will stay much longer!
Don't use pencil liner, use liquid eyeliner (it will stay on more than 24 hours). A pencil liner usually wips and smears off after 2 hours. If you cant use liquid, try it a couple of times and you will be an expert. I think that is the only way out of this one.
I know this may seem a little pricey, but Urban Decay's 24/7 eyeliner works sooooooooooo well! I Absolutely heart it!!! It's about $15 dollars I think and comes in all sorts of different colors. You should really try it. That eyeliner is so worth it! Hope I helped. :D
drugstore makeup sucks! get MAC its stays on ALL day but if you must use drugstore make set it with black eyeshadow after you apply the liner just put the black eyeshadow over it
eye shadow primer works for eyeliner as well as eye shadow. i recommend the brand urban decay.
generally (for me anyway) the waterproof ones stay on longer than regular ones.
water proof eyeliner.
don't buy it from the dollar store
