    I'm amazed with this product. I have oily eyelids and also having Asian eyes (hooded eyes), I am prone to creasing and this kept my eyeshadow from doing so. The eyeshadow adhered to the potion really well. I am now tempted to buy it in Sin too.

    I recently got this in Sin. It's a pretty color that's pearlized. It has great staying power but not as much as the original. I would stick to the original.

    Okay I refused to buy that tiny bottle for $18 USD so I went on to the trusty internet to find a coupon! During my journey I discovered on UrbanDecay.com that they have something called "Hall of Fame". It reminds me of a "starter kit" because it has travel sizes of their top sellers. This was my first ever UD purchase and I could not be happier! I got to try out the potion (in a 60% bigger bottle) which works amazing by the way, kept my eyes in tact even at my waitress job! I also got to try the pocket rocket lip gloss (yummy boy on the bottle lasting gloss w/ interesting taste), the 24/7 eye pencil in zero (easy to apply/long lasting), lipstick in midnight cowboy (a light, shimmery coral shade that's decent) and mascara that my boyfriend thought looked awesome and made my eyes really pop! This whole thing cost $23!!!!! SO WORTH IT! I am absolutely in LOVE with Urban Decay products now! This is the best kit if you have never tried them and are thinking about it. Now I'm wondering about that mattifying powder that comes in the cute case... :D

    If you are looking for a good eyelid primer, do yourself a favour, save yourself a headache, and spend a few extra dollars for this pricey-but-worth-every-penny primer. Urban Decay knows where it’s at with its Eyeshadow Primer Potion. Just a little goes a long way; it applies smoothly to avoid creases. It feels silky, not sticky, and best of all, it will not crease for at least eight hours.

    I purchased mine in “Sin”, which has a soft, shimmering champagne colour. If you like, you may apply that alone as your eyeshadow base, because it has enough shade to get away with it, but if you apply eyeshadow, it will not compromise its colour or tone, either. For an added bonus, I apply a tiny bit to the inner corner of my eyes to make them look more bigger and wide-eyed.

    I LOVE this product and I think every make-up case needs this beauty. It holds your eyeshadow in place and really makes the color pop. You only need a little bit and it leaves your eyelids feeling nice and silky just waiting for you to apply your eyeshadow.

    What do I really have to say about this? ...It works WONDERS. I can use absolutely ANY eyeshadow and it will still last all night long. It also makes them pop and a whole lot more vibrant against my skin. Yes, it is somewhat pricy, but well worth every dollar. I don't think I could ever go without this product!

    This is a great primer, it doesn't irritate my skin, and it keeps your eyeshadow from creasing. Of course the price is a down side, i think that is pretty high for a primer, but urban decay is a great and dependable brand. The only down size is the bottle style. Since it's shaped odd you don't get all of the product that you paid for with just the wand. To actually get the full product use you have to cut the pretty little bottle, and then seal it up in a bag to keep it from going to waste. As long as you know that information before buying it's definitely worth it and it works :)

    This is the first eye shadow primer I have used and I am amazed at the results! Before finding this product I found my eyeshadow would begin to crease and smudge within 2 hours. After applying this product I can do my make up at 8am and at 9pm my eyeshadow is still going strong. My eyeshadow (any brand: MAC, coastal scents, covergirl) doesn't crease and looks like I have just freshly applied it. The product comes in a tube with a wand and you can use your finger to easily smooth it on your eyelids. It is pretty expensive (around $23) but it works better then the homemade ones that you seen online or nothing at all. This is my first one so i'm not sure how long it lasts, it has been 2 months and it seems like there is still a lot left. I definitely recommend this product!

    This is probably the only eyelid primer I will ever use in my entire life. Before, I had problems with eyeshadow staying power, but now my eyeshadows stay on for hours and hours, and do not crease at all. UDPP also helps in making my eyeshadow more vibrant. It is quite expensive, but I believe that it is an investment and well worth it.

    I love Urban Decay's products! This product is great for making your eyeshadows as well as eyeliners last! It goes on smooth and is super easy to apply. It's a definite must for individuals who use a lot of eyeshadow, but I find it great even though I usually go minimal to black-shadowed eyes.

    This is about the same color as MAC's creme royale, which I have taken to wearing over it as the primer potion by itself is not all that wearable. Otherwise, it works almost exactly like the original UDPP. The problem with the packaging is still the same, lots of product gets stuck where the wand simply cannot reach, so there is an eventual need for depotting (there are tutorials on youtube, this is not hard but it is annoying).
    Altogether, this is a good buy for any UDPP addicts like myself, but if you're looking into this for the first time the original is much more usable as you can put any shadow over it, mattes or otherwise.
