Flaking Eyeshadow

|
|
Problem:
Whenever I apply eyeshadow, I find eyeshadow sprinkles
on my cheeks and under-eye area. What am I doing wrong?
Solution: Make sure you are knocking the excess
powder off the brush before you apply your eye makeup.
Some eyeshadows are more powdery than others and cause
more sprinkles. Eyeshadows from M.A.C., Physicians
Formula, Shu Uemura, Bobbi Brown, Jane (at the drugstore),
Iman, and Paula's Choice are more reliable in this
respect. Another option that some makeup artists use is
to apply foundation and concealer to the eye area first;
then the eye shadow, liner, and mascara; after that,
apply foundation to the rest of the face, touching up
the concealer if "drippies" have made a mess of things.
Although I find that approach time-consuming, it does
help eliminate any trace of stray eyeshadow.
