Oily Eyelids

Does anyone have any tips on how to get my eyeshadow to stay on and my eyeliner not to run? I have normal skin but my eyelids seem to get oily, especially as the day progresses. This causes my eye makeup to literally run down my face! Help!

Prime your eyelides beofre hand. Itll help with making color pop and to help it not crease or disapear.
Not sure on cheaper brand primers but some ive used are
Benefit lemon aide
Twofaced shadow insurance

My lids are extremely oily I use the Urban Decay primer and I set my lids with a little powder
It works wonders for me

I have the same problem! I first prime my lids with nars eye shadow base and then i put soft ocre paint pot by mac over it and this helps my makeup last all day! And for eyeliner try setting it with a black matte eyeshadow over the eyeliner! :) hope this helped!

I have oily eye lids during the spring and summer time and I have to prime my lids first or else my eye makeup will look a hot mess. :)

when i do my foundation i put powder on my eyelids THEN put my primer and whatever else- also those long lasting eyeshadows like the loreal infallible or the maybelline color tattoos, work like a charm!

I already had the urban decay primer, and it creased. But then I tried setting it with powder! That has worked wonders! Now I'll save my money for some MAC eyeshadows but that tip really helped me out! Thank you so much!
