There’s nothing I can't stand more than having to do something twice, including applying makeup. Have you experienced feeling your eye makeup settle into the crease of your eyelid? When you apply eyeliner, does it ever end up looking as though it has migrated up your lid as the day has gone on?
Next time you stop at your local beauty supply store or department store, ask one of the clerks about eyelid primer and how best to apply it. It may be a bit pricey, but in terms of applying your eye makeup once and having it last into the night, this stuff is worth is weight in gold!
