Oily eyelids? We can’t have that…

As a bona fide beauty fiend, nothing keeps me wide-awake at night more than a make-up dilemma. I can lie there all night, counting gloss as a way of trying to fall asleep, whilst simultaneously pondering ways to perfect primer application and get those fiddly false lashes to stay put.

Which is why when I discovered beautyheaven member, Theeyeshaveit’s forum thread on oily eyelids, I knew I had to help.

You see, just like your complexion, an oily base is your worst enemy when it comes to flawless, un-moving eye make-up application. It’s the equivalent to walking on ice instead of walking on solid ground – in other words, impossible to keep from sliding around!

So I did a little research on primers that may be able to help minimise make-up slide - especially for oily eyelids - and I discovered the fabulous Mirenésse Sexy Secret Eye Primer. This little beauty is a unique anti-ageing, liquid-to-powder concealer, eyeshadow base, line filler and brightener in one. It contains light-reflective pigment technology that works to firm, fill in and diffuse fine lines and it even dries to a matte velvet soft finish – so your shadows are met with a sturdy base that won’t budge – and you don’t have to worry about sliding eye makeup any longer!

Phew… looks like my work here is done.
