Prevent Your Eye Concealer From Creasing-3 Easy Steps

So the other im busy putting my makeup on...i check up on it a few hours later and i notice that my eye concealer has creased under my eye. THE HORROR! I thought OH MY GOD! Am i getting wrinkles?? But after i googled this,i found that alot of woman have this problem.

The concealer settles into the fine lines under the eye and it really is not a pretty sight!

After searching for solutions  and testing it out,i discovered the best solution for me.

I love this way because im always rushing to get to work in the morning so this is simple and quick.

What you need: A wedge sponge,eye primer and a good setting powder.

Step 1

Make sure that your eye area is not oily.
Prime your under eye area just as you would prime your eyelid.(I use the Urban Decay Primer).


Step 2

Apply concealer to your under eye area.

Step 3

Use a brush or sponge wedge to apply the setting powder under your eye.
Dust off any excess (to avoid excess product causing it to cake or crease)


Thats it! Try not to go overboard with the powder because then it will defeat the purpose.

I used my Urban Decay eye primer(check my review on this primer here ,my Mac concealer and my Smashbox setting powder(Opan invisible oil blocking powder is good too)

What i used to prevent concealer creasing

Well,this is what works for me,what works for you?

Please feel free to share your beauty secrets under comments!I would love to read about it :)

-Smokey eyes have never been this easy because the eye shadows are numbered and the box tell you what goes where.

1.Lightest:Brow Bone
2.Accent:Inner Corner
3.Medium:Outer Corner
     4.Darkest:Lash lines

Swatched

                                                             

The fun part is experimenting and applying the colors where ever you want but the numbered eye shadow helps...ALOT.

-The color in the pan is the same color that appears on your eyes which i love and swatching is not even necessary.

I did a swatch of the Metal Eyes quad.

Metal Eyes is a collection of Shimmer White,Gold,Bronzed Brown and Gunpowder Glitter/Pewter.
All these shadows are very pigmented and the white and gold/yellow shadow have the MOST sparkle to them.

These shades swatched nicely especially the pigmented yellow gold..a very rich glittery yellow.
The white shadow is very sparkly and you do not see much of the white.Its very sheer.

I also used an Avon eye primer which is just creamy and gorgeous! I got the 1 in light beige and the texture is so buttery.It just glided on my eye so a little goes a long way!
This primer really keeps eye shadow in place.After i did my look,i wanted to try another and it was so hard for my shadows to come off! So this quad is best paired up with the Avon eye primer.

Avon Primer in Light Beige

Primer swatched

                                                   

When the darker shades gets blended out ,its starts to look sheer :( i guess thats normal so it is more wearable,but you just keep have to applying and layer it up if you want a more dramatic look.
Use a blending brush and just blend!!!!
Quality wise ,i would say its average.I did not like the fallout when applying the shadows on my eye.

With this quad,its best to do eye shadow first then the rest of your face.

This shadows lasted me about a few hours - i kept on touching up on my outer corners because i went for a smokey effect.

THE END RESULT
