Hack 1: Use white liner as an eyeshadow base

Not only will using the white eyeliner as a primer, make your eyeshadow look more vibrant but it will also create an even base so that your eyeshadow lasts longer. Simply take your white eyeliner and colour your eyelids, using your ring finger. Then smudge this out lightly and proceed to apply your eyeshadow like you normally would.

Hack 2: Dust baby powder on your lashes before applying mascara

Tap some baby powder into a jar or even into the palm of your hand, then dip a Q-tip into the white dust. Dredge both the tops and bottoms of lashes with the baby powder, making sure that your entire fringe is coated with a light layer. Apply mascara on top of this from roots to tips. Your lashes will look thicker, fuller, longer and blacker.

Hack 4: Fill your brows with mascara

Use a lash mascara in place of a brow gel to create a fuller more dramatic effect. Mascara has a stronger hold compared to a gel. Apply mascara on your eyebrows and then use a spoolie to brush through the brows for the fluffy, brushed-up look that has maximum definition.

We all suffer from the horrors of smudging makeup. Especially when you are trying to perfect a winged liner or applying mascara.
