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!
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
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.
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.
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
Like everyone else, I had heard rave reviews about this. It seemed everyone on the internet couldn't stop saying how incredible this is. I decided to get it just to see what the hype was about.
I have the original primer potion. The packaging is really pretty - it's a soft lilac colour with a silver screw off lid which reminds me of a genie bottle. The tube is a squeezy tube and doesn't come with an applicator (I use my fingers).
The texture of this is really thick and creamy. It's so thick that I find it a little difficult to squeeze out. However, once it is out you only need a really small amount to cover both eyelids.
It doesn't feel heavy on your lids and it applies completely transparent. It does make your eyeshadow appear more pigmented and it does help prevent creasing - although after around 9-10 hours of wear I did notice my shadow started to crease.
Overall if I were going to recommend a more 'high end' primer - I would personally go for Too Faced's eyelid primer. I feel that is more tacky and holds your eyeshadow better. This definitely does the job but because of the price I wouldn't repurchase this again.
- Also, a tube lasts you a loooooong time. I have had mine for almost a year and I still have a lot left.
I have semi-hooded eyelids, which means that before I discovered this primer my eyeshadow tended to rub off very quickly so I rarely bothered using it. I got a sample of it and it quickly became a permanent addition to my make up routine. I only need to apply a small amount and it makes a massive difference. My eye make up will still look perfect after 12-15 hours, which is great for a busy woman like me. I have only tried the original formula, but the tinted shades look like they could be an interesting multi-tasking product.
Tips: Put a small dot of it on your finger and apply to the lids. Don't use too much as it may get too greasy and do the opposite of what you're intending to achieve.
I hate to say I don't absolutely love this product as I know it is adored by many! I do like it but I have other eye primers that do help my eyeshadows stay longer. I do have quite oily eyelids so find that my eyeshadows do still crease (only a little) with this product. It is a great colour and I really like the consistency, but I reach for my others more (one being the essence I heart stage primer which is soooo affordable!)
I got the sample of all four of these primers with the Naked 2 palette. It does help eyeshadow stay on for a REALLY long time, and I noticed a lot less creasing while wearing this, but I found it next to impossible to blend out on my eyes. It got patchy and moved around so much on my lids at first, even when I don't have oily lids at all, but then it dries so fast that if I got any near my inner corner it just clumped up and looked horrible and I couldn't remove it without taking off all my eye makeup. It did do what it says it should but there were also a lot of negatives and I think there are better eye primers out there, so it was a bit disappointing.
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 :)
