When I put pencil eyeliner on my bottom lash line, it always smudges! I love the look I get after I put it on, but boy, an hour later, and I look like a panda.
Today I tried something a little different. I applied black eyeliner from Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Inspired by Carmindy (wow, that's way too long) just outside my water line. I then picked up my 217 brush from MAC, dabbed some powder onto it, and dotted it right below the eyeliner. So I'm basically doing 2 things; I'm keeping my concealer in place, and I'm also keeping my eyeliner in place. You don't want to apply too much powder there, especially shimmering powder, as it'll get into the crease of those lines. Just a little teensy bit with a clean 217 brush (or any other small fluffy brush). I use L'Oreal's True match for its matte and soft properties.
I checked 5 hours later and the smudge/smear was dramatically reduced. I was in heaven!
