There is no one mascara that will not smudge after use. Each individual’s eye structure is different, the skin around the eye sweat and oil situation is different, according to their own skin quality to choose the right mascara, and according to their own eye structure to accept some eye makeup tips, can reduce or even prevent mascara smudging situation.
Why does mascara smudge?
Mascara smudging is related to the eyelashes touching the eyelids when blinking, but in reality it has a lot to do with your skin type, the nature of your mascara and the structure of your eyes.
Some people’s eyeballs protrude outward from the side of the face as a whole. With the support of the eyeballs, the roots of the eyelashes reach outward or even turn outward, and the eyelashes touch the skin area when the eyes are closed; people with significantly sunken eyeballs and swollen eyeballs have the roots of the eyelashes close to the eyeballs, i.e., the eyelashes are sunken in, and even the upper eyelashes grow downward. People with inner pairs and swollen eyes are more likely to smudge.
▼Eyes protrude outward and lashes turn upward.
The common eyelash growth state is forward, even slightly upward.
▼The eyeball is sunken in, and the root of the eyelashes is very far in, resulting in significantly sunken eyelashes; swollen eyeballs have deeper eyelash growth, and the upper eyelashes grow significantly downward.
Some people say that the skin around the eyes does not excrete oil, but it does not excrete, but the sebaceous glands of the skin around the eyes are weak, and some people who love oil will have a situation where the skin around the eyes excretes oil, and some people with mixed skin do not excrete oil or even excrete oil, and some people sweat (water) and produce oil under high intensity flow; the sebaceous glands of the skin around the eyes of dry and normal skin are more lazy. The skin around the eyes of dry skin and normal skin sebaceous glands are more lazy.
Young people with serious facial oil production also have significant oil in the skin around the eyes
Mascara generally contains emulsifiers, which means that water and oil factors can coexist within the mascara body. The two types of mascara on the market are those that curl the eyelashes for a quick setting effect and those that are long and thick, both of which are difficult to find on a single mascara, mainly due to the nature of the raw material.
The actual mascara is a good way to get the most out of the mascara.
Waterproof as well as oil-proof? Mascara can only prevent one.
We all know that water and oil don’t mix, really, after using mascara is also cloudy. In general, a mascara with a good shaping effect and quick drying (waterproof) has a low oil content and a lighter texture, which makes it less likely to brush out fly legs.
The mascara that has a good thick and long effect (extreme) has a high oil content and a sticky texture, the probability of brushing out fly legs is much greater than that of quick-drying mascara, the waterproofing effect is wonderful, but the shaping effect is poor, the eyelashes that are clamped are prone to collapse, and people with sunken eyelashes are more likely to stain after using it.
There are many mascaras on the market that are waterproof and smudge-proof, but some people really don’t smudge after using them, while others have good styling effects for an hour or two, but collapse and smudge after an hour or two. The final effect is related to the structure of the eye and the nature of the mascara formula.

The structure of the eye can not be changed, more need some tips to prevent mascara smudging.
(1) Things to prepare before applying mascara
The upper eyelashes grow downward, the eyelashes are thicker and harder …… This is simply a stubbornly resistant type of eyelashes! It’s much harder to get than ordinary eyelashes! The first thing you need to do is to start at the bottom of your eyelashes, stay at the root for a little longer, and then gradually move towards the end of your eyelashes to get the perfect curvature, and stay a little longer than normal.
If your eyelashes are still stubbornly resistant, you can use a lighter to heat up the pure metal strip of the eyelash curler a little bit and then clip your eyelashes after cooling it for 5-10 seconds; you can also use the hottest wind of the hair dryer to heat up the eyelash curler; lazy people can also directly use the doubly convenient hot eyelash tool.
The moment you clip your eyelashes, don’t use too much force at the root like the following and only clip at the root of the eyelashes, it’s extremely exaggerated and unnatural, and also very scary.
If the skin around the eyes is prone to oil, use a small loose powder brush on the skin around the eyes to properly disperse a little more setting powder to absorb oil stronger than eye shadow.
(2) Choose a mascara that suits you. Those who love to cry should base their mascara first and then apply it, while those who love to get oily should use a thick and long mascara first and then a quick-drying setting mascara.
As I said before, the strong shaping mascara is poorly waterproof, but then again, it’s not a three-year-old child who will shed tears over a little thing. If you are worried about mascara smudging, whether the skin around your eyes is oily or not, whether your eyelashes are sunken or not, the simplest facility is to prefer a quick-drying, strong setting mascara. For those whose eyelashes do not touch the skin beyond the roots of the eyelashes, choose a mascara with a thickening and lengthening effect. If you want to make your eyelashes thicker, longer and curlier, but don’t want to put on false eyelashes? Then you need to use two different types of mascara together!
If your eyelashes are not in contact with your eyelids beyond the roots of your eyelashes, but you love crying and tears, you can use a lash primer after curling your eyelashes to give them a basic shape, then apply a thick and long mascara using the Z technique, and finally use an eyelash curler to further shape your eyelashes after makeup.
For those with oily skin around the eyes and those with inner lash lines, apply thick and long mascara using the Z-shaped technique after curling the lashes, and then apply a quick-drying mascara or lash primer with the lifting technique after the mascara has almost dried.
Zigzag brushing from the root of the eyelashes first allows the mascara to adhere evenly to the lashes.
(3) Waterproof eyelash raincoat doesn’t mean grease-proof
There are many other eyelash raincoat products on the market, either with a simple eyelash raincoat effect, or a combination of eyelash styling primer and raincoat. The oil content is more than that of a strong styling mascara, but less than that of a thick and long mascara, and the effect is much less than that of an extreme mascara.
Some sweat-proof and smudge-proof eyelash raincoat mascaras also have a good setting effect. The oil factor content is relatively small, and the non-oil factor used does not dissolve in water quickly, making it both waterproof and smudge-proof for a short time. The mascara does not stain at all after occasional tears, but it will still stain if there are tears all the time. It’s like dry glue, it always takes time to melt away after adding water, which is why some people complain that it’s hard to remove like glue when removing makeup.
There are also some mascaras that have a slightly higher oil content, a significant waterproof effect, a relatively weak curling and quick-drying effect, a short period of time to have a shaping effect, time will collapse, the eyelashes will not significantly touch the eyelids of people who have been using the sweat-proof and anti-smudge effect (touch, of course, no smudge problem), the root of the eyelashes in contact with the eyelids of a larger area of people using the relatively easier to smudge.
The most intuitive way is to see what is written on the product packaging, if the label is waterproof, it means that the skin around the eyes of oily people and people who receive wheat sunken in the use of the same may be stained; if it is written extreme, must be stained; if it is written smudgeproof, the probability of staining is even smaller.
(4) Is it possible to apply setting powder on mascara? Not recommended!
Many people say that applying a setting powder to mascara will stop smudging, but there are certain principles. Many mascaras contain talc, silica, and titanium dioxide, so theoretically, it is possible to apply a little setting powder to the mascara, but! The Witch’s Heart doesn’t suggest that it’s easy to accept this approach.
The quick-drying mascara dries quickly and has a good shaping effect and prevents grease staining, so there is no need to apply another layer of setting powder; dense and long mascara, with a high grease content, will not even dry out (the main reason for collapse), the product itself is easy to brush out fly legs, and then add some setting powder, the eyelashes that already have fly legs become more significant fly legs, and will not add to the shaping effect of mascara, no The eyelashes that don’t have fly-legged lashes won’t become firm all the time, and even the color of the lashes will become like a layer of cream.
If you want to brush your eyelashes with setting powder, it is advisable to apply eyelash primer first, then apply thick and long mascara, and finally brush only a little at the root of the eyelashes that can touch the eyelids, which can play a better anti-smudge effect and will not be like hanging a layer of cream.
(5) False eyelashes are safer with quick-drying mascara
If you want to make your eye makeup more pleasing, real eyelashes with mascara is not enough, fake eyelashes are the only way to save the day. It is recommended to use a quick-drying mascara, as long as there are no tears, and the probability of smudging is much smaller regardless of whether or not there is an eyelash trap.
