This may sound really silly, but the thing that helps my makeup stay on best is focusing on not touching my face. The difference that makes is huge.

this shouldn't be use everyday but as sort of a trick you can use hairspray and just spray it on your face, it works well when you're going on a night out cause god knows that's when makeup can get messy!!

Prime and seal! Urban decay de-slick and all-nighter sprays are awesome. (Be sure if you get them, to order on the UD website. They're getting repackaged so they're on sale, but still full price in sephora, Ulta, and other stores)
