Sharalee I have been following you for about a year now. I am 58 and have had to learn a lot of things about makeup on an aging face. I have always loved make-up in the 80's and 90's but over the years up until about 6 months ago, lost my interest because it just seemed to be too much effort to put makeup on. You have renewed my interest in makeup and hair! 😍 I absolutely adore you and your channel because you give real answers, reviews and tips for women..I tried many of your tips outlined in this video to make eyeshadow and eyeliner last all day, and it works!!! 😃❤️ Thank you so much for such great information for women of ALL ages!! Much love ❤️❤️🤗

This is a very informative in depth tutorial Thanks Shirley. I have oily lids also and use an eye primer followed by a base powder shadow. I have the caviar sticks but It is hard to blend them over the powdered lids. What do you suggest? Perhaps you could do a video using the Laura mercier caviar sticks?

What a great tips video! It has been very hot here in Georgia & I've been fighting some of the issues you covered. Thank you, thank you! Question... do these tips & suggestions work with one & done eye shadow looks?

@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates

Yes, I think many of these tips will work for those "one and done" shadow looks. You may also try spritzing a flat shadow brush with a little setting spray (just be sure it's not a hydrating one😘) and then gently tap that over the shadow and let it dry before opening your eyes. Also, you could do a light dusting of translucent setting powder over the top of your eyeshadow when you are done and that may help as well.

What’s the difference between a tubing and a regular mascara?? 😳 I did start using a setting spay but they are hydrating and I spray BEFORE putting mascara on. Maybe I should spray even before eye make-up…. 😉😘

Hopefully a few of these tips will help you determine what is happening with your eye makeup! I do think changing up the setting spray application will really help and those bangs....they can be trouble!😆😘 A tubing mascara creates an actual tube on the lashes, preventing smudges, flakes and mascara runs. When you go to remove it, you just use warm water and press your lashes between your fingers to loosen the tubes and gently slide them off. It's pretty amazing!

I love your videos and have learned so much. I have bought several eye shadow palettes, but I have a problem when applying any of them. When I brush them on, they tend to flake down below my eye. It doesn't wipe off without adding color to at least an inch below my eye. What am I doing wrong?

@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates

Great question and something a lot of people experience! That is known as eyeshadow "fallout" and typically happens with softer eyeshadows. Three things: 1) Tap off your brush on the side of the palette before applying the shadow to your eyes. This removes any excess shadow that is not attached to the brush hairs. 2) Use your finger or a flat brush to press shimmer shadows on to the lid. 3) Do your eyeshadow first before concealer or foundation. Then use a little almond oil on a q-tip to clean up under the eyes before applying concealer, etc.

Thank you for these helpful tips. My question is about creasing in the crow's feet. Should I apply extra powder there or is there something else I can do to prevent this?

I do all this but my outer corner still disappears. It happens about 6 hours later and in summer only but it’s so annoying.Thanks for all the info. I’m trying wetting my eyeshadow for the outer corner next.

Maybe you’ve explained it and I just haven’t heard-why do you use different mascara for the upper and lower lashes? Also, not exactly on topic but since it’s on my mind, have you tried eyebrow stencils? I’ve seen them advertised and was just curious if they’d be worth the investment.

@SharaleesBoxOfChocolates

2 жыл бұрын

Good questions! Because my lower lashes are quite long, they touch my under eye area and nearly every mascara (except tubing mascaras) smudge on me. While I do like the length that tubing mascaras give lashes, I've never found one that gives me quite enough volume so that's why I use a more volumizing mascara on the upper lashes. As for eyebrow stencils, I have a video coming about the ads you are probably seeing. But in the mean time, check out this video where I test out a different option😘 kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6CAxMNrj6jSmbw.html

When it coats the lashes, the mascara forms a tube on the lashes thus preventing the usually issues with smudges and flakes. To remove it, you use warm water and press the lashes between your fingers and the tubes slide off the lashes😊

Thrive is the absolutely best smudge proof for me. I have even tried Blinc and Tarte and they smudge on me. So frustrating
