I've used many different primers and this one always comes out on top. Leaves a smooth finish so when I apply eyeshadow everything stays on great and looks brighter.
Free from silicones and packed full of kind-to-the-skin ingredients like coconut water, this primer is perfect for those seeking a natural yet slightly glowy finish. Its ease makes it the perfect morning-after-the-night-before product.
I received a bunch of Primer Potion samples in my Naked3 palette. I really like Urban Decay's Primer Potion in Minor Sin, which is a shimmery champagne that I wear under my brow alone as a highlighter and then also on my lid as a primer. But for $26, I probably would never buy it. There are much cheaper primers that I found to be equally effective.
This eyeshadow primer is absolutely phenomenal!! I have tested it multiple times with a full 8 hour day outdoors. My eyeshadow has lasted so well with only one incidence of very minor creasing.
I find this to be average. Which makes me frown because I love Urban Decay as a brand, but I use a paint pot from another company which covers more of my veins for that flawless look. The formula does not irritate. Maybe this product helped with creasing a little bit, but nothing I would be overly excited about.
This is an awesome product def 5/5 stars!! This is my go to primer and I have two tubes of it!! It really changes the way your eye makeup comes out and you won't be disappointed!
CONS: price
PROS: works well, feels nice on
This stuff really does work well. It extends the life of eyeshadows and keeps shimmer in place. The price of it for me is a little bit steep. I am glad you really don't need very much.
Having never used eyeshadow primer before, I found it a bit pricey but my eyeliner would always smudge by the end of the work day. After buying and using this primer, I can never leave the house without using it before applying my eyeliner. My eyeliner lasts much longer throughout the day and I hardly ever have to reapply. It holds even in cold weather when my eyes get ready! Definitely will be purchasing this again and I always recommend it to friends.
I bought this one mostly because I knew it would work (I had a sample) and because I'm a fan of the doe-foot applicator. I find that the tube applicators cause me to dispense more product than I actually need and it takes forever to blend it out. The price is a little steep, but the tube is a good size and should last a while. If I find another drugstore brand that has the same applicator, I'll probably buy it and test it out.
For the price, I think it is working and doing it's job. However, as someone that barely use eye shadows, a simple drug store cream based eye shadow or concealer would do the job. But if you are someone who does use eye shadow often and high pigmentation is required, this is a great base.
