eHow

The idea of smudging permanent makeup sounds like a misnomer. After all, the main reason people get it is to avoid that very thing. They want clean, straight, full lines of eyeliner and lipstick that wonâ€™t run, drip or smudge. However, there are times when perfect makeup can be a deficit. If you plan on attending a costume party or participating in a play, you will want to alter your look and this means changing your permanent makeup.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
Cover up
Eye shadow
Face powder
Liquid eyeliner
Makeup sponges
Step
1
Rub cover up over your permanent makeup. You can do it by finding one close to the shade of your own skin. So if you have an olive tone, your cover up should be one compatible to it. Then, using a sponge, dab it in an uneven way around and over the area of permanent makeup that you want to alter. It will make your permanent makeup less perfect and give it a smudged look.
Step
2
Dab eye shadow over your permanent makeup. It should be a flat color with no sparkles. This type of eye shadow will work best with your permanent makeup and look more natural. To apply it, use your finger and dab it in an uneven fashion around your permanent makeup. This trick is especially great for permanent eyeliner and eye shadow.
Step
3
Brush face powder over your permanent makeup. It should be a heavy powder. Brush it in an uneven manner several times over the area of permanent makeup you want to alter. It will give it a flawed, smudged look. This trick works best for permanent blush. It is also important to note that you could also use crÃ¨me powder makeup. The only difference is that you will have to apply it with a sponge.
Step
4
Smudge liquid eyeliner over your makeup. This will work specifically for permanent eyeliner. Buy liquid eyeliner that is the same color as your permanent one. Apply it to the area you want to smudge. Without letting it dry, dab your finger in it until it smudges.
Step
5
Get more permanent makeup. If you want a makeup smudge to be part of your everyday look, you can always get more permanent makeup. Just be clear of your desires and express them openly to the cosmetologist doing the work. If you donâ€™t, you might end up with a permanent smudge you donâ€™t like.
