MAC Prolongwear Collection (September 5, 2013)

Again, I'm still using my trusty Beige-ing! I will

when i run out of those. But before those came out, i just ran the teeny tiniest bit of moisturizer on my lids before applying my shadows. Nothing creases on me!

I am still using Taupographic and Sharkskin - and Gentle Lentil!

Then you're lucky. I have to have a primer underneath any base I use. Even the proclaimed long wearing, waterproof bases I've used crease on me.

I WISH that was the only thing that's wrong right now - it isn't, sad to say - but getting my thyroid back in shape will certainly help my body deal with all the other things much better. Thanks for the good wishes, though - 'can always use plenty of that!!!! :grouphug: I used to have terrible migraines with hallucinations and nausea every month with my period, like clockwork. I wound up getting acupuncture specifically for it and after a 3 month course of treatment, I literally never had a bad migraine ever again and it's been a good 10 years by now. However, my migraines were very much connected to my menstrual cycle and I bet that's a lot easier to treat than what erine is dealing with. Props to erine for being one tough cookie!!! The process of getting to the root of health issues, especially for women, is long and arduous and basically zero fun. Thank god for Specktra friends!!!! :specktrarocks:

Feel better Liba...sorry to hear you are going through this...

I don't know if I've ever even tried a Paint Pot without a primer underneath. I've tried a PAINT without a primer and it didn't crease. This was before I got into primers but since I've known about and tried primers, I just use it all the time.

I use a primer underneath my paintpots. I remember the mua was like im not supposed to do that since the pots prime my eyes and im like umm no without primer i get creases like nobodys business so ill stick to what works for me lol

My skin around my eyes is a betch though, lol... It's taken me multiple buys to find a primer that works for me, so far it's been one by Etude, by they changed the formula so that creases on me too, sometimes the Catrice one (sometimes it creases, sometimes it doesn't? Can't figure out how much I need for it not to crease) and now I use Ruby Kisses. Essentially, I NEED the internet to find a primer that works on my oily lids haha. And I don't wanna splurge on Too Faced or UD, because it probably won't work on me. Sadness.

 

[DMcG9]

You could try UD or TF from Sephora and return them if it they don't work. They have a remarkable return policy that still surprises me.

i believe i found promo pics






idk why the foundation and the concealer are in the pic though

That promo pic is gorgeous! The lips and cheeks and eyeshadow all look perfectly done. xD

I suppose the concealer and foundation are there to complete the "prolong wear" theme.

I have similar issues. Udpp worked but dried out my lids. TFSI same. The NARS primer is perfection though. Worth the price. And if you hate it I think you can return it.

I too have oily lids and the nars is the only primer that works on me!

Yes I ended up the Nars one as well after the same issues with UDPP and TFSI...I also like Edward Bess e/s base but you have to order online.

 

[Yazmin]

The WnW primer is the truth! Nothing has worked for me as well as this has. Milani's new eye primer is a close second for me.

 

[MissTT]

I love the NARS primer

 

[DMcG9]

Hmmm, I'm gonna give the Nars primer a try based on the glowing praise. I loathe UDPP. I find the consistency gross and it never applies smoothly. I've had better success with TFSI but it's still not quite right.

I Just bought it. Haven't tried it yet but its sounds like I made the right choice. I'm glad its not in a squeeze tube. I always end up squeezing too much product out and it wastes it.

She's from the netherlands and we don't have Sephora anymore nor do we have any kind of return policy once products are used

 

[shontay07108]

The Nars primer is the best. Absolute magic. Despite several tries, I neve got into UDPP.

 

[MAChostage]

Here's another vote for the Nars primer. I've used UDPP faithfully for years and decided to try the Nars after trying a sample. I like it even more than UDPP.
