eyeliner
I always wear black eyeliner and mascara wherever I go. The problem is, it always bleeds! I don't think it's my mascara-- i think it's the eyeliner.
So what can i do? Does anybody else have this problem?
What's a good eyeliner that's not too expensive?
Thanks in advance. :)

First of all, use a good, waterproof eyeliner. I love Revlon ColorStay:

I've been in extreme humidity, at the beach in the water, it's never melted on me. Also, you need to apply it right to make it stay.
When you apply your face makeup, smudge a small amount of concealer on your eyelids. Set with translucent powder.
Now draw on your eyeliner and apply your eyeshadow on top. If you want a more defined look, smudge a small amount of dark eyeshadow over it.
You can also try using a makeup sealant to keep it in place. There's Model in a Bottle:

Or the cheaper option, a little bit of clear mascara:

I really like Urban Decay 24/7 pencil.
For me, and almost everyone else I know, it stays on for the entire day..no smudges (unless you smudge it purposely), it doesn't bleed everywhere, and I love it.
I'd definitely recommend it.
And someone gave this tip on a forum, I haven't tried it personally but apparently it works great for them.
"A trick I use (and love) is to use any old eyeliner, then go over it with damp eyeshadow. Sets it perfectly and wont come off until you want it to :] I use Urban Decay "Zero" eyeliner and Fyrinnae "Harlequin" eyshadow for the ultimate dark black."
You might want to try that out if just using the regular eyeliner doesn't work. :)
(("Zero" is the color black for Urban Decays eyeliner.))

Here's a beauty tip my friend taught me:
*This is for if you are putting the eye liner on the bottom. I doubt it would bleed from the top anyway*
1. Buy some powder foundation (that matches your skin tone of course)
2. Before you put your eye liner on, put a little powder below your lash line blend in the powder with your fingers
4. Apply the liner
5. Apply a little more powder and gently blend it in with a blush brush
That works amazing for me. You can find powder foundation at any local drugstore.
Also, if you want to try some new eyeliner, I recommend anything from Almay. Pencil eyeliners are the easiest to apply in my opinion. =]
