Which do you prefer? Ive been using beige-ing forever as a base and im almost out so its time to buy a new one but Ive been hearing a lot of people use bare canvas paint. Which is better?

I have both and reach for bare canvas waaaaay more. I like how smoothly it applies - I hate that shadesticks tug on your lids so much. In my opinion, the bare canvas is better. Plus it will last you longer than the shadestick, I've had mine forever!!!

I have both. I usually use bare canvas on my whole lid and then beige-ing on the area where I intend to use more glittery shadow such as retro-speck or honeylust. =)

I use both - i use the bare canvas as a general base, but the then beige-ing shade stick helps more of the lustre-y shadows 'stick' to my eyes (ie. gleam, honey lust, etc) and also helps the pigments last me through the day.

The bare canvas paint dries too quickly on my lids, so nothing really 'stick's to it.

I've used both before, and they didn't work as well for me. I then switched to Urban Decay Primer Potion as my base. It's harder to blend, but my eyeshadows last throughout the day.

I was once a religious Beige-Ing Shadestick user... but I have converted. Bare Canvas Paint is marvelous! It's a much stronger base than Beige-Ing, my e/s stays put all day!

I have super oily lids. The only thing that works for me is UDPP, and then I can wear paint or s/s over that. Lately I have noticed that UDPP and s/s as a combo is amazing, especially if I'm wearing pigments.

Well, for some reason my highlighter shades don't show up well on my browbone, so I'll use paint for the lids and crease, and then Beige-ing on my browbone so my highlighter shades will show up more.

The s/s seem to work better with pigments because they are slightly emolient so they grab the product better. Paints seem to last longer for e/s though.
