I have a friend getting married in a few months in a mardi gras theme. She wants me to do her makeup for the reception with purple, gold and green fanning out on the sides of the eyes. I'm pretty confident I can make this happen for her but I need makeup that will last for hours and not sweat off from dancing. Any help? Please? I'll test out any tips given at our next girls night.

Get a good eyeshadow primer and it should last all day!

Urban Decay is good as well as the colored Covergirl primer :)

Yes definitely use a primer and good eye shadow. Then it should not rub off as easily.

The best primer in the industry (and its best-kept secret) is Lime Crime's Candy-Eyed Eyeshadow Helper. That stuff will make any eyeshadow smudgeproof, waterproof, sweatproof, and tearproof - top it off with the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, smashbox Photo Finish Eyelid Primer or a MAC Paint Pot, and your eye makeup will be indestructible!

Well, I don't know any eye makeup that lasts long, but if you put on an eyeshadow primer it will last!

Use urban decays all nighter setting spray along with the eye primer. My makeup lasts all day and night with this gem.
