It will mess up the foundation, I have yet to find a solution sorry lol. I'm following!

This probably isn't the best solution, but what I do when I wear my glasses is spray some hairspray on a q-tip and put it where my glasses hit the bridge of my nose.

Well, I don't use a full coverage foundation but the Nars TM, so I don't know if it may change with other formulas. If the weather is not humid and/or very hot (no sweat) it will barely move even if you push the glasses. You can always set your foundation with some powder :) and even if the foundation moves, it will not be noticeable because the glasses will be covering that skin.

Other thing to consider is that you will have to curl your lashes because they may touch the glass and it's not comfortable. The mascara should be waterproof or smudge proof due to this problem

It just messes up the foundation on the bridge of your nose
And if you have long eyelashes they will hit the glass part of your glasses
I would look into contacts, that's what I use
And I also haven't figured out a way to not have the glasses smudge my foundation, sorry

Sad to say it will mess up the undereye a bit, along with the nose and side of the face it's not noticeable only if you keep moving the glasses around. in that case you might just want to touch up those areas so it don't look like a grease spot. I hope that makes sense.

Awww...What kind of lenses are you considering? I've been putting off a much needed eye exam. Hope you get some great tips. It's something I'd never considered.

Yea it works for me. It sets that area and tends to keep it dry too, since I have pretty oily skin. It creates a nice barrier. :)

You could try using a long wearing foundation on your nose only like Estee Lauder Double Wear. I don't care for this foundation all over. But sometimes I do use it in certain areas like the nose and outer corners of my eyes.

For falsies, try a Demi set. They are a little shorter and wing out to the side a little more. It works for me and I've worn glasses forever.

I have glasses and I find using a setting spray then a fixing spray really helps and my foundation and concealer don't budge!

Alma (I think) had this trick where you just spray some setting spray onto a flat paddle brush and pat it on the bridge of the nose :) try it, hopefully it'll work!!

Just use a fixing spray. setting sprays just get rid of the powdery look you can sometimes get. a fixative spray will actually adhear the makeup in place. setting powder will also help with that.
I've been wearing glasses for years & it's hard to avoid that problem. but if you keep your glasses on then no one will see anyways (:

I have the problem to! but setting it with powder helps. and for falsies, in use that half ones since I never found a pair of full one that would touch the glasses!

I love glasses for one reason, it does not require as much eye makeup. You should stick to your normal skin routine, but eyebrows and eye shadow are no longer matter

Ayns, I feel the complete opposite!! if I don't do my brows, then I feel,like the frame takes all the place and I look like I don't have any! and I can dare to do makeup I wouldn't wear if it was not behind glasses

I wear glasses (or at least I used to) and it really is only your nose (I push mine up a lot so my nose could get smudged) also if you don't want glasses you can try contacts however they are expensive so that's a big drawback
