Is it normal that eye makeup makes my eyelids swell?

This began happening about six months ago. No matter what brand I use, my eyelids begin to swell right after application and stay that way until I take the makeup off.

    Nope, it sounds like you have an allergy. A funny thing is that both Avon, Almay are brands whose eye makeup has irritated my eyes, and Almay is supposed to be hypoallergenic. I generally only wear Estee Lauder, Lancôme and other department store cosmetics.

    Sounds like a normal allergic reaction.

    You probably have very sensitive eye lids. Try buying makeup at the pharmacy by brands that specifically create makeup for sensitive eyes.
