I got this primer as one of the VIB bonus perks from Sephora and it is absolutely amazing. I will definitely buy it when I finish the bottle. You don't even need to apply a lot. A little goes a long way. It makes your eyeshadow pop even more, no creases and no mess. Your eyeshadow will last all day.
Priced at 23.00CAD, this miracle worker potion is worth the cash. I have incredibly oily eyelids, enough to deter me from wearing eyeshadow for over 5 years! It always creased no matter how many face primers I tried, hence my skepticism when trying this particular brand. Imagine my surprise when a 1/4 of a pea size amount of this product was all it took to cover the entire eyelid (up to the eyebrow) area, and gripped on oh-so-tightly to all shadows! It's amazing for BOTH power and cream based shadows and even grips liquid eyeliner so well that the mere thought of the word 'smudge' is laughable.
Guaranteed amazingness!

I have both Too Faced Shadow Insurance and Urban Decay Primer Potion. I find both quite comparable, UDPP dries down to a more smooth almost powder like finish while TFSI doesn't really have much of a finish it sort of just sinks into the skin. UDPP loses out just due to the packaging, I have the mini version with the slanted doe foot. I find the doe foot can apply more product then you actually need cause you sort of schmear it on.
I find it works just the same as TFSI for me, I don't generally wear bold and bright eye looks and I never really experienced creasing pre-primer days. I use eye primers to prevent my mascara smudging on my lower lid and both work great with a bit of face powder on top.
With the new squeezy tube packaging I would rate them par to each other, although I've heard reviews that UDPP dries faster in the new packaging then in the old?
This product is fantastic! By far the best primer I've tired. It lasts all day and no creases at all. It's easy to remove and doesn't feel heavy or thick on your eye lids like other similar products. I highly recommend it!
This is THE best eye primer out there. It holds my eye makeup all day, and doesn't give me raccoon eyes, which I often get if I don't wear a good primer. Even if I only have time to put eyeliner on and no eyeshadow, it keeps my liner from smudging! I also have very sensitive eyes and this has not irritated them at all so far. I would recommend this to everyone! And the price isn't even that bad! A little useful tip for getting all of your money's worth: when the stick doesn't pick up any more of the potion, chances are that there's still quite a bit left in the bottle. Just saw the container at the widest part open with a knife and scoop the primer that's left into an old eyeshadow container to save it.
This is my favourite primer ! It is a little bit pricey but you only need a little bit for everyday use. My lids are oily but this makes my shadows stay all day long! I have the original but I want to try the other colours too
Whomever came up with this idea deserves to become a Saint one day. This stuff is amazing! My eyelids a re little oily, and my eyeshadow would always crease. Not any more! UB's Shadow Primer is a bit pricey, but a little truly does go a LONG way. Try it, and you'll love it!
I use this product everyday before school even without wearing eyeshadow on top and it stays on all day! Before when I wore eyeshadow it would crease and would come off the moment you touched it. I have tried many products that have said that they stop creasing and none of them have worked. I also wear this without eyeshadow and it looks great! I love and recomend this product to anyone!! Just wish it was cheaper
hands down! keep my eyeshadow stay put all day long without any creasing! i love it and my clients loves it!
I really do love this. The only reason why I gave 4 stars for quality is i learned on youtube you can cut the bottle and depot the product. You may think your out, but there is so much more in the bottle! The genie bottle is adorable, but id rather not have too cut it open with a lrge knife to utilze my product.
