- Oil is your enemy when it comes to keeping mascara from smudging.
- To prevent oil from seeping into your mascara and messing up the formula, start by cleansing your face and under eyes from natural oils, using a lightweight moisturizer, and applying a primer.
- Set your under eye area with setting powder to further discourage oils from running onto the area.
- Apply mascara as normal, starting with clean lashes. If you use mascara on your lower lashes and still struggle with smudges, apply it only from the root of the bottom lashes but avoid getting it on the tips.
- You can also lock in the formula by using a clear brow gel after applying mascara or by layering a waterproof mascara over your favorite formula.
My friend was having a tough time with her mascara.
She always seemed to end up with black mascara under her eyes, and no matter what she did, she couldn’t seem to fix the problem. I told her that I could help her out, and we sat down for a tutorial.
First, I explained to her that she needed to start by cleansing her face of any natural oils. Then, I recommended that she use a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer so that the mascara wouldn’t run.
Finally, I told her to wait for the skincare to absorb before applying makeup.
Once she had followed my advice, it was time to apply the mascara. I advised her to start at the root of the lashes and avoid putting it on the tips.
If she still struggled with smudging, I told her to apply a waterproof mascara over the top of her favorite formula.
