1. If you have red, watery eyes due to allergies, deal with them! There are plenty of medications available to eliminate allergy symptoms. Nothing will detract from your appearance faster than red eyes.
2. Avoid caffeine. It negatively impacts the system that the eyes use for focusing. That includes coffee, tea and chocolate. If you can’t quit, at least cut back!
3. Replace eye makeup frequently. An enlightened woman of 21st century would not be complete without her drawer full of make-up magic. Unfortunately, you are just as apt to have the same tube of mascara that you used the night of your high school prom! If this describes you, throw it away. Using the same mascara over and over again leaves you wide open for possible infection. Bacteria is alive and well and flourishing on your trusty little mascara wand. Pitch it out before it gives you trouble. Mascara should be replaced at least every 6 weeks.
4. Use special eye moisturizer to keep tissue around the eyes soft and pliable. The skin around the eyes is very thin and easily damaged.
5. If you prefer not to use an eyelash curler, shop for mascara that is specially formulated to self curl.
6. To obtain a smoky, sultry look, use an eyeliner pencil and liquid. Apply the pencil first and gently smudge. Then apply the liner. Be careful, a little goes a long way. You’ll love the look!
7. Powder your lashes before applying mascara. It will create a better bond for the mascara to cling to.
8. For puffy eyes, soak two teabags in cold water then apply to each eyelid.
9. Slices of raw potato placed under each eye will reduce the dark circles.
10. Define and tame contrary eyebrows by using a toothbrush lightly sprayed with air spray. Gently brush into the eyebrow and they’ll stay right where you brush them.
