Here's How To Make Eye Shadow Last On Oily Eyelids

Oily eyelids often make it difficult to apply eye shadow. And sometimes, those oily eyelids actually make the eye shadow fade quickly so a retouch is needed which is of course very impractical.

However, you don't need to worry because there are several ways you can make your eye makeup last even though you have oily eyelids, here's how:

Wash and clean your face

According to Heather Adessa, a makeup artist based in New York and CEO of Glo Beauty Bar, to treat oily eyelids is to do a pre-make-up cleanse. "I always recommend washing your face in the morning, even if you've showered at night. This is to avoid dirt or bacteria from the pillow on your face when applying makeup," he said.

 

Apply primer

Before you apply makeup, Adessa suggests using a primer on the face. "This is not just for the trend, the primer is useful for make-up last longer on your face. If you don't use a primer, usually the make-up will disappear within three to five hours, especially when you sweat. "

Choose a trusted eye shadow palette

After using primer and preparing the look for the eyes, Adessa suggests choosing a trusted eye shadow palette. “Some brands fade more easily than others. Try to choose an eye shadow palette that is trusted and tested or your favorite. "

 

Use a setting spray

After applying eyeshadow, Adessa recommends setting spray to make your makeup last longer. “Using a setting spray can help your make-up last a long time, even for a day. Using a setting spray is very important, especially if you want to use makeup for more than eight hours, "he advised.
