8 Long-Lasting Eyeliners For Watery Eyes
For those of us with watery eyes, finding eyeliner that is long-lasting can be a nightmare. Either the formulas are too drying or the product just wipes right off. It's completely frustrating. Don't waste your time on products that don't work for you. Reach for long-wear liners instead. No matter how watery your eyes get, defend your line with smudge-proof, water resistant formulas. Eye makeup streaks are a thing of the past. There is no more excuses for winged liner that fades away. Beautiful eye makeup is always on trend, and now it's attainable for those of us with troublesome eyes.
