......every time I put my mascara on.

Honestly, if I don't sneeze mid application, I manage to jab the blinking wand right in my eye.

Every time!!!

How do you then repair the damage without wiping all the foundation away from under the eyes and causing massive Grand Canyon creases?? Especially when you have to leave the house in 2 minutes???

tons of loose powder under the eye to catch it, maybe change brand too, it sounds watery

Tiddly bit of lotion on a cotton bud

Ooh, ok thanks. Any suggestions?

I use Rimmel at the moment. Have to say it's absolutely no good when I'm crying, which I did a bit on the way to work this week after rowing with my DS!! Looked blinking awful, streaks everywhere. Once I'd repaired the damage I had to go through the rest of the day looking like I'd just passed my 100th birthday.

Dye your eyelashes

Waterproof - and a proper remover. Tidying up with cotton bud, as Worra says.

simple do a correction wand doodah for mascara/eyemake up mishaps , I used clear mascara probably not the effect your after though but i like it ,

Bourjois mascara is particularly underrated I find. It depends on if you want volume or length to be honest as to what the best recommendation will be

mrsjay · 07/01/2012 13:46

your eyelashes will only go so far OP these stupid adverts with the fluttery eyelashes are inserts , so i dont think mascara can add that much volume iyswim
