Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion is THE most legendary primer in the beauty industry. Eyeshadow Primer Potion is coveted by makeup artists and makeup junkies alike because it guarantees more vibrant eyeshadow that lasts for 24 hours and NEVER CREASES!

Once you experience its powers (plus how smoothly it glides on – an added bonus) you'll never want to live without it. Original formula dries down invisibly, while Eden, Sin and Greed are shades that can also be worn as shadows or highlighters!

Best eyeshadow primer ever

This eyeshadow primer has been a staple of mine for many years for any eyeshadow look that I do not want to budge. This primer genuinely makes your eyemakeup cry proof, sweat proof, sleep proof and swimming proof. Plus as someone who always has their eyemakeup crease due to hooded oily eyes this is the perfect fix as the makeup stays perfectly all day.

Tips: Make sure to apply this before any other products it may touch as if you do your eyes after doing your face makeup it can cause the foundation ect to come off patchy when applied on top

Unpopular Opinion

This was recommended to me by the staff at mecca and it definitely helps eye shadow stick and stay. Unfortunately it is a MISSION to remove and the one that I got is a beige colour so sometimes hard to conceal completely with light colours or less pigmented formulas.

Tips: Colour-less version would be a better choice. But only use if you are prepared to SCRUB later.

A primer that works

I have the anti-aging version because I am now officially in my late 30s. It comes in a pretty purple tube with a doe foot applicator. After applying, I like to blend in with my finger.

It is creamy, not oily; easy to apply, and dries down quickly on my eyelids. It keeps my eye makeup on for hours without creasing which is great, because I don't really do subtle eye shadow looks.

I really like this primer. I'd buy it again.

Worked a little too well

I apply the primer, then the eyeshadow, and then i blend it out. However the eyeshadow refuses to blend, and my eyes look dirty. I have better results with no primer at all. These days i use it on my eyebrows as that needs the staying power more than my eyeshadow

Not a big fan

This product was overhyped back then when it was first released! The product was okay for me. It made the colour of my eyeshadow to pop a lot more but the downside is that I did not like how it made the eyshadow powder look a bit creased when you tried blending it on top of the eye primer!

Definitely not worth your money. There are more much better eye primers out there that are much cheaper or you can use any concealer as an eye primer to save more money!

Overrated

Overrated , nothing mind blowing considering others on the market are often alot cheaper and being of similar quality. A cult classic I understand,but shop around if you are on a budget. Mini's are available though if you really do want to try it :)

Not the greatest

I purchased this as a replacement for my much cheaper Morphe primer and regret doing so.it does not enhance eye shadow colours or increase its longevity. A real shame as it is expensive. I much prefer the Morphe, cheap one on all counts. I am using this, but won’t buy again, or recommend.

would recommend!!

this product is a staple in my collection, i do a lot of colourful eye looks and this helps create a nice base for my eyeshadow. i have noticed that pairing it with high quality shadows help the performance however, would recommend this product.

A Good Primer

I got a mini of this in my Mecca Beauty Loop Box and I really like it. Prior to using it, I didn't use any sort of eyeshadow primer (sometimes a bit of concealer) but it definitely helped keep my shadow in place.

I have hooded eyes so creasing is an issue especially when I do more editorial or bold looks and I found this primer to keep it from creasing for the whole day of wear.

It's quite hard to remove in my opinion, it takes me a lot longer than when I don't wear primer and it's hard not to pull my eyelid when removing.

I do think that the full size is quite pricey, so I don't use it for everyday simple looks, it feels like a waste. I'd still like to find a cheaper alternative to compare and I'm sure there's many out there, but overall I do think this is a very good primer.

Tips: If you hold whatever makeup remover you're using on your eye for several seconds, then swipe away, you will remove most of the eyeshadow and primer with less pulling of your eyelid.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer

I got this primer as a sample in my beauty loop box from Meccca and it is amazing! I love the texture and it goes on nicer than my morphe eyeshadow primer. I intend on switching to this one for when my Morphe one runs out.

Tips: Apply sparingly to the eye lid and pat with your ring finger to help smooth into place
