Eyeshadow sparkles get all over my face

I mostly wear makeup for going out on the weekends. I just got the naked 3 palette. I love the way the combinations look but when I use the sparkley ones it gets on my cheeks- I think mostly during application. Any tips?

I have the same issue - Do your eyes first! Then use a baby wipe or some makeup removed to get rid of the sparkles and do the rest of your face.

If I forget, then I dip a brush in some powder and try to dust the sparkles off.

I try to put as little eyeshadow on as possible and blot it on a napkin before I put it on.

Also, what about trying a sparkly eye shadow base? I have little tubs from Makeup Forever. I use the white one under tan, pink and I have a lavender one I use under a lavender powder for bolder color.

i also do my eyeshadow first, wipe my face with a baby wipe and then do my face.

eyes first!

Urban Decay is known for great shadows with a ton of fallout! If I don't do eye makeup first, and I get a lot of fallout from the eyeshadow, I just lightly brush it away with a blush brush.

I get lots of fallout too. You can put a little loose powder where you get the fall out and then brush it away.
