Yea they did wear it and it's Kohl it was to keep the sun aways from there eyes (thought it doesn't seem like it would wrok too much, and Johnny Wore sun blocking contacts ALONG with the kohl and he was still squinting and stuff) BUT to answer your question, i have no idea. my eye liner always runs too and i'm the same as you Paula i wake up and it makes me look like Jack!
I wear colored eyeliner, usually royal blue, lilac,plum or violet, but sometimes I wear more subtle colors like olive,brown, or black, and I wear it on my whole eye or the corners, or just on the bottom. It NEVER runs tho! I don't know wht u guys mean! It helps if, with a really detailed bruch, you dip it in water then put an eyeshadow(matching color of course)over ur eyeliner. It stops it from running! Sry, i'm really good with make up for some reason... My older sister even lets me do her make up for going out to parties! Its fun tho, I'm really good at matching outfits and makeup and getting the look I want, it's kinda fun!(Sry I'm kinda dragging on and bragging 🙁 sry....) MAYBE I could go undercover as a makeup artist and meet Johnny Depp! AHHHHH!Dressed as Jack Sparrow! AHHHHHH! ((((((((freakin out)))))))))
um...like isnt it called movie magic? dont you think that they would replace his kohl so that way it looked intact? i mean you wouldnt want to see him with kohl running down his face would you? and ya they wore it back the pirates wore it back then to keep them from squinting from the sun..so they could see...kind of like football players were that black lines underneath their eyes..its so you can actually see and not squint all the time.. ^_^
