Q When I apply eyeliner, it disappears after a few hours. Help!
A Coat lids with a primer, like MAC Prep and Prime Eye, $16. "It absorbs oil and creates a matte base makeup will stick to," says Smashbox makeup artist Lori Taylor. (Don't put it under eyes; the delicate skin will wrinkle.) Then stroke a waterproof liner on the outer rims of your eyes where lashes grow--since the inner rims are moist, color easily vanishes. Try L'Oreal Paris Wear Infinite Waterproof Self-Sharpening Eyeliner, $7.49.
Q What's the best way to check if I have bad breath when I'm on a date with a guy?
A Head to the bathroom, lick your inner wrist, let it dry, and take a sniff. That will be the smell emanating from your breath. "Your tongue is like a shag carpet that traps bacteria between the 'shags,' or small protuberances called papillae," says Pia Lieb, DDS, assistant professor at New York University College of Dentistry. To freshen up, pack a mini hydrogen-peroxide toothpaste, which oxygenates your mouth and kills germs.
