Watery eye

[YoAdrienne]

For as far back as I can remember, I have had watery eye. Not eye(s), just eye. EVERY time I put on eyeshadow on my left eye, it waters like crazy. I use eye drops also. I thought maybe my eyes were too dry. Didn't help. So now I spend all this time doing my eye makeup and in 10-20 minutes, it gets all cakey, and starts flaking off. I use mac paint pot primer, and sometimes I use urban decay primer potion.

I have no clue what to do, but its very frustrating. I'm a makeup artist damnit, my makeup should be perfect. Not runny  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

This sounds like a medical problem - have you seen a doctor about this?

No, figured Id ask for a second opinion first. Id hate to be allergic to makeup.

Both my eyes watered terribly over the last few years.

When I went for my bi annual eye appt, the dr said my inner eyelids were inflamed and had small bumps on them. I was recomended to apply a very warm, wet compress to my eyes every night.

I found this helped to a degree.

As well, I stopped wearing disposable contacts. I now wear the ones that last for about a year and must be removed and cleaned every night (forget the name).

Maybe try with a warm, wet compress each night and see if that doesn't help.
