Hello Beauties and welcome to My Beauty Fix!
Today's fix is just a quick one, but it happened to me this morning and I had a little Eureka moment! You know when you're in a rush getting ready (which I'm sure is most of us, the majority of the time) and you apply your concealer, eyeshadow and liner perfectly then when you come to put your mascara on, you blink too quickly and end up with mascara smudged everywhere!
Now, you have two options, you can either huff and wipe off your make-up in the areas that have been tainted with mascara and reapply or you can try my quick and simple fix.
My fix: Wait for the mascara to dry and then use a cotton bud to wipe away the dry flakes of mascara. The trick here is to wait until the mascara is dry. It is natural to want to wipe away the smudge as soon as possible, but fight the urge as wet mascara will end up smudging more.
Give it a try next time, It is really that simple!

perfect! I loovee that! thank you for sharing! i usually take a q-tip and add makeup remover to it, then just dab until the makeup is off in that little millimeter (maybe even smaller) of eye lid area. then i take a dab of primer and then i take a dab of eyeshadow in another q tip and add it to the little space. your way is soo much easier and something i never would have even thought of! ingenious!
ReplyDeleteHa ha yeh my process was sort of similar and its hard work doing it all twice. But this is definitely a life saver now xxx
DeleteThat's a good tip! I definitely have the smudging problem when I'm in a rush, or I get a little trace of mascara on the upper lash line... not a good look haha! I'm going to try this next time :)
