Eye Shadow Base better than UDPP & Cheaper!!

[Distinque]

I've been using UDPP + Paint Pots and it works pretty good on me. I have super oily eyelids and this seems to work for me. It held up for 8 hours with little creasing!

My question is : why doesn't Mac's Prep and Prime eye ever get mentioned. Even when I've had makeup sessions at Mac they never use it.

Because it doesn't work.

I love paintpots but I never use them alone. I use either this loreal de-crease under the paintpot or I use mac cream base - luna over the paintpot and it works! No creasing, no smudging, no color fading. I hated UDPP. It did nothing for me.

Darn it!

I had heard about this from a friend but I never bought it. Then I saw it at Walmart like 2 weeks ago and I thought about picking it up but changed my mind. I've been using UDPP for a few months and I love it. I bought some more TODAY and I wish I'd seen this first. GLAM gives great reqs.

i guess i got a funky tube or something cuz this stuff did nada for me, felt like a heavier UDPP, and ive even stopped using that cuz lately its been irritating my lids. glad it works for ya tho

Paint (the one in the tube, which is annoying, because the pressure in the tube makes more of the product come out more than I need, and it ends up getting wasted)

Why don't you just squeeze some of the paint into a small air tight container. Then you won't waste any.

Wow, I like to try it

Could somebody CP it for me? I'm Swiss and we don't have this product yet here.
MACs prep + prime doesn't work on my lids. I like so many MAC products but this one is a loser on me.

I normally use Manhattans Eyeshadowbase but I like to try something new, probably it works better!?

 

[almmaaa]

This is my opinion I tried it and it creased a little bit on me and since I HATE creasing because it just ruins your gorgeous makeup I am a little weary to try it again but I will give it another try.

I prefer paints to paint pots because i have oily lids they seem to work better (although mauvism was terrible, clumpy looking) If I am going to use a paint pot (they have so many more colours so I am using them now) I use UDPP under it and this seems to help it stick better. I squeeze out my paint into an airtight sample jar when I get it. I find it easier to use and to get the right amount. Plus then I can use the tube for B2M right away.

I tried the Loreal de-crease a few years ago and didn't care for it much. I remember it creased and I was like, "wtf...hence the name...".
However, I love UDPP!! lol, to each his own I guess! I know everyone gets different results from different products. Its the only one that doesn't dry greasy. I've tried pretty much all of the above mentioned primers and UDPP makes my colors pop and is like eyeshadow/makeup super glue. My eye makeup stays put and color true until I take it off! I also like to use paint pots and shade sticks. But I use UDPP when I need my colors to last a really long time.

What's the texture of these? Are they more liquid-y than UDPP? If it is, you could possibly flip it over on its top so that the stuff goes to the lid, so it's easier to get it out.

 

[SkylarV217]

I couldn't find this anywhere any one else have this problem ?

 

[GlamYOURUs]

I bought mine at Walmart but returned it b/c I fell in love with Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I live by this one now. Until the next best thing comes along. lol

But I do agree, not all bases will work the same on everyone because you have to take into account that some people have dry, oily or normal lids.

[sofabean]

hm, i've been meaning to try this...

 

[pretebrowneyes]

I bought this and love it...before I was using paints alone. It does well for making my colors blend well while not mushing them all together. I'm going to try my (only

) paint in still life over it and also try nars orgasm multiple to gte some color pop. Does anyone have any recs or suggestions for that. My eye makeup stays..never had that problem, but the DAMN COLORS DON'T FRIKKIN POP! help.

I used to use P+P eye, I would have to use with multiple bases in summertime. Now, I use Matte gel and a paint pot and I am good all day and night!!

 

[S.S.BlackOrchid]

I love Decrease, and my lids are VERY oily. Revlon Colorstay concealer also works.

 

[concertina]

I *love* this stuff! SO MUCH BETTER than UDPP. Works like a charm and stands up to Texas heat on my oily skin!

 

[xoxprincessx0x]

I use Perky paint pot as a base for EVERYTHING and never had a problem with it.
