HOW TO: How I get my eye make up to last all day

Hi Guys,

Firstly, please ignore my towel in the photo's, I just washed my hair :)

My friend at work asked me the other day how I get my eye make up to stay so I thought that I would share what I do with you guys too.

There are loads of different ways to get eye make up to last but so far I found this to be the best. It's just based on the idea about eye shadow primer (e.g. primer potion) or even using concelaer (I do this too); I just did not want to spend money on an additional product.

I got the Clinique quick shadow free (love clinique's free gift promotions!) when I bought other stuff and I didn't have anything else to do with it. It is pretty amazing, but once I am done I will just use a cheapy liquid concealer instead.

This is really easy and my eye make up stays this intense until I take it off at night. And you can amend it to your own eye make up style.

For the most basic version I use two products:

• Clinique's quick eyes cream shadow in 05 (rock violent)
• MUA in shade 20 (matt black)

1. Apply the cream shadow over your lid (I go quite high up due to my lid shape)

2. Pat (do this initially so you don't budge the cream shadow and minimise fall out because there will be looooooads) your chosen eye shadow onto the cream shadow.

3. Then slap on the rest of your powder eyeshadow in your normal way.

That's it!

Once this is done I apply mascara and use a cotton bud to tidy up.
