UD Primer Potion....as to those saying that you don't get a lot...use it until you think you're out, then pop off the plastic circle that is on top of the bottle...you'll get a lot more out. UDPP is absolutely the best thing ever.

Whatever you do, don't use Lancome's base. I worked for them, and I HATE HATE HATE it.

HIP Eye Color Extender
It works like a dream, especially at holding pigments and glitter.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion is the best stuff i've ever tried, i wish i could say the same about MAC paints and shadesticks but they have nothing on UDPP.

I'm not very experienced in this department but one of the MA's at my MAC counter recommended using concealer and a few dabs of brulé shadow.She only recommended the prep+prime for really oily lids.Have to say I've had no complaints so far...works great!

Re: Favorite eye shadow primer

I've noticed that in the colder months I use paints more as a base, and when it's warmer shadesticks, depending on what colors I wear on my eye I wear a matching one or my old standby beige-ing. When it is especially hot and I'm prone to more creasing I use UDPP. It's the best but makes it harder to blend for me, so I don't reach for it as often as paints and shadesticks.

Re: Favorite eye shadow primer

for those of you who prefer the UDPP over the paints - will you tell me why? I never get creasing with paints and I'm in Canada and you can't buy UD here in retail stores

You can buy UDPP at Sephora here in Canada. If paints work great for you, then stick with paints. Like people have said, blending over UDPP is a little challenging.

I'm using Laura Gellar Eye Spackle right now, but its got a little too much color to it. It works great, though, otherwise.

I wouldn't dare wear paints in the summer with Texas/Louisiana humidity, for one. Although they are less drying than UDPP, for the same price---actually cheaper, I would rather go with the product that I know works for me.

Its all about personal preference. Some people do their foundation first and if they're worried about fallout they pack a ton of loose powder under their eyes and wipe it away. I do it last cuz I'm usually in a rush so its just easier to wipe fallout off and then put foundation on.

I put my foundation on first, then concealer, then primer, then of course e/s. But it is really all about personal preference.

Re: Eye primer question

I do my eye makeup first, then my foundation. The loose powder thing never works for me, and i don't like risking ruining my foundation if i screw up my eye mkeup.
