Have you ever seen a woman with flawless Eyeshadow and wonder how does she do it?  How does she get her eyeshadow so smooth, no creases, no smudging?  Well we have provided a few tips to help.

Most  women have problems with their eye shadow creasing and fading. This is particularly bothersome  as the seasons change and the balance of your skin changes . Here are some easy fixes to keep your eye shadow in place and looking beautiful all day long.

Use a primer

Eye shadow primer creates the perfect canvas for your shadow. You can use liquid foundation as a primer, it can get sometimes messy. It’s best to buy a product that is specifically designed as a primer. Two products that work really well are Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion this can be found online at Ulta Beauty and Too Faced Shadow Insurance this can be found online at Beauty.com . Apply the primer to the entire lid and then wait a few minutes before applying shadow.

Use loose powder

Apply a very light  dusting of translucent powder to your whole face, including eyelids, before applying your makeup. This will create a dry, smooth base.

Choose powder shadow

Instead of cream eye shadow, use powder instead. Creams tend to crease on oily eyelids and oftentimes fade faster than their powder counterparts. You can use cream if you are layering colors, but try to finish off with a powder shadow.
