panda eyes

I love wearing mascara but I keep getting panda eyes and I have no idea how to stop it from happening.
Any ideas?

When purchasing some Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser, I mentioned this problem to the sales assistant and she sold me some sort of eye base which is applied with a little stick/wand on your eye lid and under the eye to stop your eye make up running. It has made a massive difference! It's expensive - i think about £18 but it has lasted for over a year with daily use.

I'm sure that other brands of make up must do this too but if not I know that laura mercier is stocked in john lewis, space nk and harvey nicks

Also use a decent waterproof mascara

Clinique Lash Power (or Power Lash, I can never remember) is great for stopping panda eyes. It puts a little coating round your eyelashes, a bit like Blinc so it doesn't smudge off.

Weaselbudge that sounds like the secret powder?

Clinique have a mascara that can only be removed with warm water which is good

But I've retuned to a Loreal one, I can't remember the name (again) Blush but it's only 4.99 in boots so worth a try!

Thanks, scootergrrl I had a look at the clinique one I think I would pay 15 for a decent mascara.

Where did u get the secret powder?

Ive noticed my eyeliner on my upper lid comes off on my right eye first. That's weird.
That's not relevant. But I needed to share.
Agree mascara is the issue. I use Lancôme doll eyes. Love the look

Secret powder if that's what scootergirrl means is also a Laura mercier product

My Clinique one that's unbudgeable is high impact curling mascara and then the Loreal one I meant is voluminous and that's as good as but comes off easier in the eve!
