When I was in high school, I avoided using the bathrooms that had a cloud of smoke come out when you opened the door. I never did figure out how those girls got away with smoking in the girls’ room, but those girls had a secret weapon I didn’t have: lighters. Lighters were not only useful for smoking, but also for applying smooth and thick eyeliner.
I don’t wear much eyeliner, but every once in a while I like to put a little around my eyes. Using a lighter, however, just isn’t practical. I don’t remember where I read this simple trick. It’s so easy I can’t believe I haven’t thought of it before!
Use your hair dryer to soften your eyeliner! It works beautifully, and there’s no risk of getting a detention.
Are there any other easy make-up tricks I’m missing? Did you already know the hair dryer trick? Tell me in the comments below!
(By the way, a hair dryer also removes the fog from the mirror after a steamy shower–but I bet you knew that trick already.)
I have heard about this trick before but I had totally forgotten about it…heheh. Thanks for the reminder 😀 I did not know about the mirror though, I don't know why I never thought about that!

I love the blow dryer tip. Thanks!
I never heard of using a hair dryer either. There was one bathroom in our high school specifically used by smokers. Everybody knew! It's beyond me too how they still never got busted!

Wow, I'd never heard of that before! I rarely wear make-up, but when I do, I use a liquid eyeliner — preferably cake. No heat, no smoke. Just add water. lol

I have never heard of that tip before but it's perfect..and you're right…no detention! HAHAHAHA!!
I don't really wear eyeliner, but maybe it's because I never knew how to soften it so it would go on properly.
This might have just changed my life.

I don't have a hair dryer. Mind you, I hardly ever use eye liner, so it doesn't really matter either way. And if you hold it against the palm of your hand, it will soften up as well.
