How to fix eyeshadow fallout
Do the eyes before the base, and tap the brush before it reaches the lid.
Written by Lamyaa Aissi, professional makeup artist, Casablanca.
How to do it
- Do eye makeup first when using dark or glittery shadow.
- Tap excess off the brush every time.
- Hold a tissue or a shadow shield under the eye while working.
- Sweep fallout away with a large dry brush before touching it with anything wet.
The Moroccan adjustment
Glitter migrates through a hot evening regardless of technique, so at a Moroccan wedding it goes on last or not at all.
What goes wrong
Wiping fallout with a damp sponge. It smears the pigment into the base and turns a two-second fix into a rebuild.
