I had a really bad allergic reaction to P+P eye. So I use UDPP now when I got to shows or when I want it to really last, but paint pots or paints for just regular shows.

I use UDPP. Since I'm really starting to get into eyeshadow, it's the only primer that I've tried. I also use Wet 'n Wild cream shadows as a base from time to time.

I don't consider them to be the same type of product, even though they both have primer in their name.

In my experience, MAC's PP line just makes application easier and smoother. It doesn't do anything to increase wear (eye or face) - but it does make a difference in texture, especially under foundation.

UDPP is similar in that application is easy (provided you just use a little - instead of globbing it on), but it brightens colours, and keeps those shadows and pigments in their place.

I have both, but I probably wouldn't buy MAC's PP again, not because it doesn't work (it does), but because I generally don't have a problem with uneven eye applications. If you're looking for anti-crease and holding power, I'd definitely recommend UDPP.

I know, RIGHT!? It's getting to the point where I can't wear anything (paints, pots, shadesticks, concealer, foundation...) as a primer because they crease, but I can't wear eyeshadow without a primer. I'm so stuck right now, but I mos def try UDPP ASAP. It sounds like my only hope.

THANKS AGAIN LADIES! Everyone gives such fabulous details here.

I've used UDPP but it gave me a rash on my eyelids.

I now use Too Faced Shadow Insurance and it hasn't been drying out my lids, I also found that I can blend easier.

My MA tried MAC's Prep + Prime eye and it didn't crease (it was around 70 degrees outside).

I think i'll stick to my TFSS for now.

I can't do my make up without UDPP, so it gets my vote. I also put home made mixing medium over it. I can wear my make up for the whole day and it still looks fresh. I am a bad girl, so sometimes I fall asleep with my make up on and when I wake it, it STILL doesn't look all that bad.

I was at the MAC counter last weekend and the MA tried to pitch MACs PP and I wasn't really feeling it. But it depends on each person, their skin type, what result they're going for.

i wouldnt recommend MAC eye prep & prime coz it creases. I prefer to use UDPP.

i have a question about urban decays primer or just primer in general........ do you guys that use it only use it on your eyes or do you use it all over???
as much as i love makeup i have to admit i've never used a primer but is there like a huge difference between primer for the eyes and face???
i'm leaning heavily towards urban decays primer because i've been hearing better reviews about it than MACs....

I've never used MAC's eye primer before but I <3 UDPP and BeneFit's Lemon Aid. I put it all over my eye, from lashes to brow. I have a separate primer for my face. I notice the colors stay on longer, especially highly glittered colors or pigments, and it makes the eye shadow easier to blend.

In regards to if it's different..I think so. I've (accidently) gotten my face primer in my eyes and it burns, but the eye primer doesn't bother me if it gets in there. It's the same concept, though..it evens out the skin and helps the color adhere to the lid.

MAC P+P has to be the worst eye primer I have ever used!! UD PP all the way!!

It depends what I am putting on over it. If I am going to use one of MAC's creme color bases on my eye (I know it isnt approved for that area but I use them there anyways!) or Benefit's Creaseless Creme shadows I use the UDPP. If I am just going for straight eyeshadows and pigments, I use MAC's paint or MAC's paint pots. I cant speak to MAC's P&P though.

UDPP is far more superior to MAC P&P!
