*I apologize if something like this was posted before or this is something everybody already knows - I'll look really silly, lol. But many friends I told didn't know*

How many times you were doing your make up in a hurry and after you got out and saw your face in a pocket mirror or shop window and realized that your eyeshadow/eyeliner/mascara/permanent lipstick has smudged or transferred there where it shouldn't be?
I often use water-proof mascara so can you imagine how hard it is to spit on a handkerchief and correct it...

Not working, exactly.

Anyway, you'll need only 2 things:
1.lip-balm
2.handkerchief
OR your fingers.

Of course, it would be the best (most practical) if your lip balm was in a stick (preferably colorless), like this

(silly me, of course you know what product in stick is: lipstick, shadestick, cover-stick, etc.

)

So, you just put some lipbalm on a place where it is smudged and remove with handkerchief or your fingers (less neat). You might want to leave it for few seconds if it's long-lasting/waterproof make-up. And if you don't want your lipbalm to come in contact with your make-up, just fold the handkerchief into a point (can't remember better term,sorry,

), like this

(sorry for awful cuticles, winter + uni, you know

)
and scoop some lip-balm with point.
This is also handy for tiny and precise corrections.

I hope it works for you too, because if it can fix waterproof mascara copied under eyebrow and long lasting lipstick, I think it can fix everything.

Such simple and powerful little tool that everybody has.

Nope, not Labello.

It's Rosal Lipbalm (Croatian brand)
Although, people in Europe (especially in regions where Beiersdorf has strong market) are used to call every lipbalm in stick Labello, hehe.

You're welcome!

I get dots too! That's how I discovered this: I was out and saw that mascara copied under my brows and I didn't have anything with me except lip balm and I though "At least something creamy-ish, it should melt a bit." And it worked like a charm! Tell me if you try it and if it works for you.
