e.l.f Eyelid Primer Review

I got this from iHerb, which makes it much more affordable than KMart (given you're getting a few things to make it worth the shipping!) and I really enjoy it - I find that it's nice and thin in consistency and so applies evenly, and really ensures that my eyeshadow (even cream shadows!) doesn't crease. The packaging is nice and simple and has a doe foot applicator.

I always thought eyelid primers were useless, until I decided to spend a few dollars on a cheap elf one. Then I realized where has this elf eyelid primer been all my life ???

It's pretty much skin coloured, so it does help with discolouration on your eye lids, basically how I would describe it as is something, that the eyeshadow sticks to, and perfects all the imperfections.

The applicator is very nice, and the formula itself is very sheer, and glittery. But the fact it costs a few dolllars, and it works the way it does, is a wow, I would happily pay more for this :)

I had honestly never even heard of eyelid primer but it looked something like liquid eyeshadow and I need to add a few extra $$ to my order to get a first-buyer discount so, hey! Haha.

The packaging is just as you see above. Fairly simple but I wouldn't expect anything amazing from such a cheap product and it's easy enough to hold and use.

The tip often gets a lot of product on it so I just dab it on my eyelids and then rub it in/ around with my finger. Haha. Hopefully that's not a no-no.

I've really enjoyed using this product because (as long as you wait for it to set for a little bit) it holds all of your eye makeup in place, which is especially exciting if you have done some eyeshadow masterpiece. Haha. I'll be using this product every time I want my eye makeup to hold for the whole day or night. :)

What can I say, other than BUY IT AND TRY IT!

This eye primer is soft and a light thin consistency, which blends effortlessly, it has a dofa applicator which gives you a good amount of product.

No fragrance which is perfect for the eyes, as other products can cause irritation. Also it last all day without creasing on my eyes which get really oily!

The packaging is very basic and cheap, and it isn't particularly large bottle, but for the price of $1.99 its amazing and so worth the price!

I have been on the hunt for an affordable eyelid primer for ages so was so stoked to pick this up for so cheap on iherb. I have quite oily skin on and around my eyes so was finding that eyelid products would only last an hour or so on me before fading away and/or migrating into my eye creases. This really helps to give my eye shadows something to grab on to, and has meant that I am able to dig out some of the eyeshadow palettes which I had previously given up on due to how poorly they lasted, as this really keeps them going for longer. Will definitely repurchase.

I purchased this in 3 different shades and found it to work great for me. I am partial to an oily eyelid part way through the day, so found this is great for helping to minimise that and to keep my eyeshadow in place all day.

One thing I did find was that the applicator, although good does make it a bit difficult to grab all the product from the tube.

I have this in the white shade, and I use it everyday. I got it on sale for $3 at KMART and it was so worth it. It really does increase the longevity, but perhaps not for as long as I would like it to. If you want to invest in an eyeshadow primer but don't want to splash out this is the one for you

I had never bothered with eyelid primer before trying this but since trying it has become a staple item in my makeup routines. The e.l.f eyelid primer is the only one i've tried so I have nothing to compare it to but I think it is of great quality and does the job it's supposed to. As well as an eyelid primer I also use this product as an under-eye concealer it works wonders to brighten up any darkness under the eyes. The soft applicator wand tip makes application smooth, clean & quick and the formula feels weightless on the skin but provides excellent coverage. This formula is light, creamy and dewy upon application but dries matte. As for the purpose of this product any eye shadow i've used has clung to it beautifully.

I got this product from iherb for $3 which is a super bargain but i would happily pay $10 for it here in NZ it's absolutely worth it.

I tried using the e.l.f. Eyelid Primer after getting really tired of my eyeshadow constantly fading and creasing during the day. I was very skeptical of eyelid primers actually being effective, but thought I might as well give it a go on recommendation from a friend (and after all it was so cheap!).

Was SUPER impressed by this product. E.l.f. puts out a range of different eyelid primer shades, and I adore the Pearl shade, since it contains a subtle sparkle which is really pretty. The consistency is fine; not too filmy or tacky, applies easily and evenly, dries quickly. And, most importantly, it makes my eyeshadow last ALL DAY with absolutely no creasing or fading whatsoever! This is certainly a miracle product and I will be repurchasing again and again. Reaffirmed my impression of e.l.f. as a cheap, simple, yet punchy company that definitely gives you bang for your buck, haha! :)

I have been using this for a couple of months now and am really happy with how it works.

I do not have overly oily eyelids and don't really have any issues with my eyeshadows creasing. I apply a light layer of this to my eyelids before using powder eyeshadows, it blends out very easily and I feel it gives them more "grip" and makes them longer lasting.

I quite like the packaging of this product however I do often pick it up thinking its my concealer. I has a doe foot applicator which makes the product easy to apply.

This product also comes in a variety of sheer colours
