how do you get your eyeshadow to stay on and looking good all day or night?
I have tried using a 'base' or putting foundation or concealer under but my eyeshadow always ends up smudged or gone by the end of the day.
any ideas? :)

    That's what I do.

    Or put about 3 coats of it on.

    Oooooh *has solution*.

    Put Vaseline on your eyelids, and let it dry a bit so it's sticky. Then put your eyeshadow on and it stays on for aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages. Even if you rub your eyes, like :).

    Does that work for cream eye shadow?

    I think so. I don't own any, but my friend suggested the Vaseline thing, and she uses cream eyeshadow, so I assume so...

    BeneFit's F.Y.Eye is pretty good stuff - it's a neutral, creamy base that keeps your shadow looking fresh. Small pot and not cheap, but you don't need to use a lot on your lids.
