I have lipstick problem. Any tips

Really!!!

I have a problem in keeping my tinted moisturizer and pencil eyeliner from melting. How do most girls have that perfectly done and even after an hour, nothing's smudged?

All so true! I envy the girls who look so flawless after applying their makeup!

I wear contacts for events and forget to put them in sometimes... Biggest mistake when you have to put them in after :(

4 :6 applies to me lol good article

i look like a panda with eyeliner :(

I wish I knew how to wear makeup other than mascara and some powder. I literally jammed my mascara brush into my eye so bad last week I had to wear a patch for the day.

Haha the struggles real,I love makeup and applying it but god I suck at winged liner still struggling to get it right I got such shaky hands

@Fransisco Set it with powder! Pencil liner will easily smudge if you don't set it, so after you put it on, set it with black shadow ( or whatever color matches). Same with a tinted moisturizer/foundation, you should use a setting powder OR even a setting spray to help it last (:
