Follow it up with matte eye shadow the same color as your skin and black mascara--at least two coats, but top only.

Never rub your eyes, of course, and drink a lot of water.

Hope I'm not repeating someone else. I probably shouldn't come on here when I'm on my phone.

Oh! One other thing. I have heard that at higher doses, quetiapine has a paradoxical effect on sleep, so you're probably normal with the insomnia issue.

Thanks. I did hear the tea bag thing from my grandmother, and I never tried it. I try to choose colors that are in the bronze/gold range, which complements my skin tone, but they have a little bit of shine, so maybe I should try matte colors? I am guessing maybe I should lay off the black eyeliner? I only wear a little bit when I'm working, but maybe it's not helping me as far as looking alert and "fresh." I do like my eyeliner though, but on some days, I'd be willing to sacrifice.
