When you are young and carefree, you apply eyeliner in the morning and it magically is still there the next morning. As we age, this magic staying power goes away. Longer days, coupled with adult life that could include exhaustion, allergies, and general wear and tear, equals eyes that water and are prone to smudging.
Secondly, women often choose one shade that they think works for them and never make a change. This is a mistake. If you have been wearing your signature purple or teal eyeliner for years, try to move outside of your comfort zone and try a more neutral color. Same goes for those brown eyeliner users; branch out and try a plum or slate.
