I have to say first of all that I absolutely am in love with Urban Decay. It's the only super expensive make up I'll buy. When the primer potion came with my first set of eye shadows I thought it sounded pretty silly. I love Urban Decay eyeshadow but it doesn't like to stay on me and uncreased for any longer than 3 hours. So I decided to give the primer potion a try. WOW! I woke up at 5am did my make up and went to school and came home later on at 6pm and my eyeshadow was still on perfectly! I was so blown away! I have never had an eyeshadow last that long before. I use it everyday so I can have the perfect eyeshadow that stays perfect all day! :]

okay, i know that this primer is well loved by lots of women..im just sharing my personal experience from it. I tried using this primer basing on l the positive reviews i have read. First of all, i find the packaging cute but a little annoying as i have read and seen in you tube that majority of the product get stuck at the bottom and you have to depot it to another container...consistency is nice and it applied smoothly on my lids...but unfortunately it didnt deliver very well when it comes to making my eyeshadow last.My eyeshadow crease within 2 hours...at first i thought it might be the brand of the eyeshadow i used..but i had tried it with different brands like MAC, NYX, Smashbox...the results are all the same..i even went to you tube and ask a couple of gurus whether i was applying it properly..i even tried layering it with some paint pot to make the eyeshadow stick better but sadly i think the product just wont work very well with me.My lids arent that oily either. I still use this product occassionally when im going to the grocery or church, on occasions that im only out or expose outside for 2-3 hours..

I love this product. Sometimes I wear it just by itself as I have very oily eyelids and it keeps that annoying shine away all day. It works amazing underneath eye products. It leaves a dry, smooth surface to apply shadow and keeps it from creasing throughout your workday or evening out, even with heavy makeup.

I bought it because I have super oily lids and no eyeshadow stays on my lids. I was skeptical at first, but then I've noticed that the eyeshadows really stay on (average of 8 hours) when I use the Urban Decay Primer Potion. The packaging is cute, but as others said, after sometime it seems that the primer has ended but there's still a big ammount deposited in the curves of the bottle. You will loose tons of primer if you don't cut the package and transfer to another container. Other than that it's an effective product.

I bought this because of all the hype. I don't have oily lids so i don't really need a primer that keeps my shadows in place....so i can't comment on it's ability to keep oilies at bay. I use it more to make sure eyeshadows, especially powder ones...stick to my lid. This does work to a certain extend. The shadow really stickers, it does make the color more vibrant but i feel that there are better alternatives. It does an okay job, not the greatest. I do reach for it every so often. I also use a lot of shadows so this doesn't work as well as my other bases (Paintpot, paint etc)....but i do recommend this for oiler lids - even if it's under the paintpot....or for individuals that like the more neutral look and uses less shadow...i don't know if i'll repurchase, but i do want to try the udpp sin..where it has color.

This is a great primer if you have oily lids. It keeps shadow in place and from creasing all day. The only downside is the packaging, which leave a lot of product behind if you don't cut it open. This is great for matte & pressed shadows.

I bought this after reading and hearing many wonderful reviews on this product. The main reason I got this is because my eyelids are fairly oily and my eyeliner never stays in place no matter what long lasting pencil/cream/gel eyeliner ( I hate liquid) I had tried (Mac Fluidline, HIP Cream Liner, UD 24/7 pencil, MUFE pencil, Stila Smudgepots, Shisedio) . I only ever place it on the top lash line and somehow after two hours it always ends up on the bottom giving me raccoon eyes. I had heard that this also increases the wear of the eyeliner as well as obviously the eyeshadow so I really had my hopes up. When I finally tried it, I really loved what it did for my eyeshadow. My eyeshadows did become more vibrant after using this and there was minimal creasing by the end of the day too. However, it did not solve my eyeliner problem. I don't think it even made any difference as far as my eyeliner was concerned. All in all, it's a great product that does wonders for eyeshadow but just didn't solve my number one problem. I have since found Smashbox Jet Set Liner which by some miracle of God is the only eyeliner I have ever tried that has not given me raccoon eyes. Yay! =)

I don't hate this product but I'm not head over heals for it either. I guess I would give it a meh if someone asked me about it. Like most of the reviews on this product the bottle design is cute but not practical. I find because I don't have oily eyelids this product really dries out my eyelids which causes me to itch them after I've finished applying my eyeshadow which defeats the purpose of the primer in the first place. However if you have oily eyelids then this product is great for you. I also don't like that once it dries it has a tacky feeling to it.

Despite all of that it is a good product that does what it says it will. I just don't think I will buy it again because I like a base that is more creamy and fills in any lines I have on my lids which this one doesn't do.

I cannot live without this product. A lady at sephora recommended it, and I have never looked back.
Seriously.. wearing this under eyeshadow guarantees that it will not crease. Also as a tip, you can use it alone, and you wont get that greasy eyelid look.
Absoultely worth the investment!!

Absolutely great consistency, and it works!
Pros - makes shadows appear more vibrant and last longer (especially when you need your makeup to last all day, or in the humidity of summer)
Cons - wish it was a bit cheaper, and as much as i love the design of the container, it is not very practical (a lot of the product gets stuck and is not accessible)
