What is your trick to keep your mascara and eyeliner from getting under your eyes a couple hours after you apply? I am so tired of looking like a battered woman... Not that bad but you understand what in saying 😜

To get my eyeliner to stay I take a thin brush with some translucent powder and brush it under my eyeliner and it stays pretty well :)

Maybe try using waterproof mascara. I used to have the same problem. Then I switched to waterproof mascara and I don't have raccoon eyes anymore.

Waterproof mascara and it not using too much. And I always use a qtip.

I agree with setting under eyes with powder.. Things such as eye creams and natural oil production can make this area prone to running mascara, you might want to gently remove extra cream with q-tip or cotton pad as sometimes it doesn't all soak in and set the area with a good oil absorbing powder being careful not to get in the eye :)

I saw this nice trick on Pinterest, to apply power along your lower lash line (where your mascara/eyeliner tends to run) to absorb any excess oils during the day. I usually use a flat eyeshadow brush, or even a concealer brush. I do this everyday!

I feel like its almost impossible so lately I just don't put any liner below my water line and make sure its waterproof if anything and waterproof mascara too.

Use waterproof mascara and eye liner. Try a mascara primer before mascara like Diorshow maximiser. I exercise with it and even used it once in the sauna and it didn't budge!

I use face powder on my eye lashes to help set makeup and I always wear waterproof eyeliner and mascara. It gets me through a 12-14 hour day :)

Thanks ladies!! I will try your tips. Seems like no matter what I do my eyeliner or mascara is going to be under my eyes. Hopefully the powder will be the key, I have been setting with powder but maybe haven't been doing it right. I have tried different mascaras so I know it's me and not the mascara :/
