I personally love the UD Primer Potion. I've heard so many great reviews on this and just recently purchased it. Love this eye primer!

I've just tried Smashbox Photo Finish Face Primer with Dermaxyl. It helps to apply your foundation smoother. It works great for me.

I dont use a foundation primer, but I do use an eyeshadow primer by Urban Decay. I believe its called Urban Decay Primer Potion, a friend of mine recommended it for me and I've been in love every since.

I use MAC Prep + Prime Eye & it's great at preventing my e/s from creasing as the day progresses. I just started using MAC Prep + Prime Face about a week ago & it works really well to create a smooth canvas for makeup application. If you normally use a lot of foundation, you'll notice that a little will go a lot farther when applied over primed skin vs. unprimed skin. Even w/ face primer though, my makeup never seems to last as long as I'd like it to. PS, I have MAC Prep + Prime Lip too and I highly recommend it!

I've tried Smashbox's photo finish, and though I did like how it felt, I found out that it clogs pores. I've recently switched to Laura Mercier's oil-free foundation primer, and I love it!

For foundation primer, I use Clarins Instant Smooth. And for eyeshadow primer, I use Urban Decay Potion Primer. I love them both!

Tell me about it! I had that problem today! My makeup looked so nice except for this area beside my right eye where it had all been "washed away"!

Re: Favorite eye shadow primer

i have excessively watery and oily eyelids, so i ended up falling in love with lancome's eyeshadow base (ombre perfecteur). it stays matte all day (literally 12+ hours). and as the other girls said, udpp is good as well.
