Pro Tips For Smooth, Crease-Resistant Wear
- Use a true eye base and set lightly with Porcelain before color. Press shimmers with a fingertip to reduce fallout, a tip many forum users swear by.
- Keep tools clean and retire old eye products on schedule. The American Academy of Ophthalmology notes to throw away eye makeup around three months to reduce risk of irritation or infection in its safety guidance.
- Do not use products near eyes unless they are intended for the eye area. The FDA repeats this advice and warns against adding water or saliva to mascara in its eye cosmetic safety page.
- If you notice redness or itching, the AAD suggests that it could be contact dermatitis and that patch testing may help identify triggers. See their contact dermatitis overview and patch testing guide.
