We've all done eye makeup freehand and, listen, sometimes it all works out great! But, most times, it goes something like this:
6:30pm: "Awesome, I've got 15 minutes until I need to leave, I'll just do some quick eye makeup."
6:36: "Daaaaamn that eye looks good! I'll just recreate it on the other one. Easy peasy!"
6:37: "Whoops! Went too far with that shadow..."
6:38: "I'll just grab some eye makeup remover."
6:40: "Ok I definitely just wiped off most of my primer/concealer. Let's reapply that real quick..."
6:42: "Honey, I'll just be 2 more minutes! [cue: whining partner and/or screaming child in background]
6:43: "You've got this, just breathe & start over!"
6:47: "Yep, that looks nothing like the other eye. UGH. I guess I'll just take off all the eye makeup."
6:50: "I absolutely can't leave like this. I need to fix these red, splotchy eyes." [screaming in background continues]
6:55: "Sigh. This is as good as it's going to get."
You're running a minimum of 10 minutes behind, feeling eye shadow-less and disheartened.
THERE IS A BETTER WAY!
