Raccoon Eyes

I'm still suffering from raccoon-eyes from waterproof mascara. I'm now accepting suggestions for new ones to try, or new tips.

Yesterday I tried blotting some pressed powder under my eyes once my make-up was done... and that seems to work! But yesterday wasn't very humid, so it could be that. I'll keep trying it and see if it works.

The mascara I'm currently using is Bourjois Paris Volume Clubbing Mascara from Shoppers Drug Mart. It is really hard to get off, and it seems really waterproof except for the bit of raccoon eyes I have to mop up mid-morning every day. This mascara is a little clumpy and I tend to make a bit of a mess with it, but once I tidy it up it looks fabulous. And it lasts forever (except a tiny bit of raccoon eye in the morning).

I use MAC Fluidline as an eyeliner, I'm starting to wonder if maybe it's that? I love this eyeliner, it goes on so nicely with a small, angled brush, and it looks so great!

Well, I'll keep trying the powder for now, and see if I can find any great advice on google.

Ciao!
