A Resolution for "Fall Out"

Hi guys! I know alot of you are concerned about eyeshadow fall out, being very careful to pat on your shadow to avoid it falling onto your freshly foundationed cheeks and all. I have seen some of you put a bunch of loose powder on your cheeks so that it sweeps away easily. Well, that is one way, but there is a much easier way.

For eons, we have all been taught to do our faces first, foundation, concealer, etc. And then do our eyes. Well, I do my eyes first, if the fall out happens, it happens, no biggie. I finish my eyes, all but underneath, where I also put shadow and liner. Once my eyes are done, I take a bit of makeup remover and wipe off all of the fall out, now I do my foundation and concealers. Once that is done, I do the undereye lining, and it all comes together great!

As for mascara, I think most everyone does their top lashes first, then the bottem ones, but with the tops wet (unless you let them dry first), at times you get little black dots all over your upper lid and your fresh eyeshadow, and now you have to correct it....I do my bottom lashes first, then the top, it completely eliminates that problem!! I remember having a makeover done at the Bobbi Brown counter, and the artist doing my mascara, telling me to tilt my head a certain way, so that those horrible dots wouldnt go onto my lids. I told her that I normally do my bottom lashes first, she had never heard of doing that!! But she thought.........Hey, what an awesome idea, and now she does her clients this way too.

Anyway, just a couple little tips I thought you would all like.
