“Hej! Jag har på sistone blivit mycket mer intresserad av sminkningar, en del tack vare din blogg. Väldigt bra inspiration! I alla fall, så har jag ett problem. ALL ögonskugga lägger sig i globlinjen/försvinner helt efter bara 3-4 timmar. Jag har provat några olika primers, t ex Too Faced Shadow Insurance, Urban Decay primer potion, Lumenes eyeshadow base, elf primers och MAC paint pot. Jag har även provat med concealer (kicks egna och mac pro longwear), med och utan puder ovanpå primern osv. Jag har testat både billiga och dyra ögonskuggor, lite skillnad är det men jag måste fortfarande göra om nästan allt efter några timmar.
Is there anything I can do about this, or is it just to accept that I get to improve my makeup all the time? This is a lot of work, really appreciate if you answer. Thanks in advance!"
What fun that I have managed to inspire you, it makes me very happy! :)
The most common mistake you make when using primer is not to saturate it properly with eye shadow. If you put something damp on the eyelid, the week will come when you blink if it does not dry quickly.
Dab on the eye shadow and press it into the primer, preferably do not pull the brush sideways until you have all the eye shadow. When you have applied a layer of eye shadow, you can always dab a little extra to be sure that you have applied enough and fixed the primer.
Another detail that can play a role is if you apply too much primer, then it will in principle be impossible to fix it with the eyeshadow and then it remains moist and settles in the creases after a while. You should have an even layer that covers the surface you are going to apply make-up on, but it must not be thick.
I use Lumen eye primer, which you have also tested, and it lasts for me all day and evening even when I use super cheap shadows.
Hope my tips work for you, good luck! :)
