Eyeshadow primer?
I think I've heard about an eyeshadow primer to put on, so that in the heat my eyeshadow doesn't crease.
Is there something like this out there and do any of you use it? If so, what are the benefits of using this product and what brand would you recommend? Thanks!

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
yes, there are certainly benefits -- it helps keep your eyeshadow on longer, and it looks flawless -- really reflecting the color you put on.
I use MAC's eyeshadow primer...

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
How do you apply it? LIke regular shadow? Does it make it harder to remove the shadow later in the day?

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
Urban Decay Primer Potion is great and you can also use the Mac Paint Pots as primers (that what I use).

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
I like Clinique Touch Base. It can be worn alone but I always put shadow over it. It comes in colors- I always get Canvas. It's a cream and I just use my finger to put it on like regular shadow.

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
I use Urban Decay Primer Potion and I have to say it truly is magic.
I have had my shadow stay flawless for 18+ hours while working -- non-stop running around in various climates throughout the day.
I wish they made something for the rest of the face that worked that well!

I agree! I love this stuff. It's creamy and doesn't make it hard to take off later.

Re: Eyeshadow primer?
Thanks for all your input! Looks like either Mac or Urban Decay wins! Where do you get UD, at Sephora?

Yes that is it.
That is the original. It is a nude color.
They recently came out with another one that is like a champagne color too.

Thanks! Which color is better to go with? I have olive skin and am tan already. I wear a shimmery white shadow as a base and contour it with either a deep gray/black or a plum/pink depending on my outfit. Thanks again for your help!

I bought this stuff too and loved it...but I think I'm allergic to it. When I put it on it started to burn and itch.
