Re: primer for the eyes
I would recommend to try MAC's Paint pots, Urban Decays Primer potion or Guerlain's Divinora Protective base for the eyelids.
MAC's PP are in my opinion definite must haves! I love the heavy creamy texture and the colourrange is very good. UDPP is another must have thing. It's lighter and more liquid-textured, and it melts to our own eyelids nicely. But if you didn't adore MAC's Bare canvas Paint I wouldn't try this one first. In my opinion there are something a bit same with UDPP and Bare canvas Paint. And Guerlain's version of eyeshadow base is also gorgeous product! I have this one always in my kit. It is also neutral shade base product and it gets my eyeshadows last and last perfect for even 18 hours. For real. This stuff is very highquality and it makes wonders. It has also superluxurious package and you can find this one at sales for quite reasonable price. Only minusthing in Guerlain's base is that if you don't remember to close the package properly the basestuff can dry out and then it's not as pleasant to use So if you try this one out, always remember to secure the package well (

I just got, of all things, Mary Kay's eye primer and I have to say, I really like it. Doesn't crease, keeps the makeup on the eyes for more than one hour.

eye primers.. I get confused.. "hush" cream colour base or "bare canvas" or "perky???
when doing a all over the lid "base" colour I was wondering if the cream eyeshadows for example "hush" work better than say "bare canvas".. also I noticed "perky" paint pot... I guess Im after something that seals the eye area really well... thanx..

Re: eye primers.. I get confused.. "hush" cream colour base or "bare canvas" or "perk
i use paintpots
mostly painterly because its neutral in color
i got perky too (it works under everything) i apply a thin layer to my whole lid with a dense eyeshadow brush (forgot the number)
my shadow never creases when i use paintpots as a primer / base
paints work too but i think theyre to messy i like the pots better
i heard cream color bases crease on some people but ive never tried them myself
hope this helps

Re: eye primers.. I get confused.. "hush" cream colour base or "bare canvas" or "perk
I hope that I understood your question right. (
If you have very oily eyelids I don’t recommend CCB’s like Hush because I have heard that they do not work as great as in oily than in dry/normal eyelids. I have myself normal lids so for me they are ok stuff. But still not my favourites as a shadow base. I actually don’t use them as a eye makeup base, I use Cream colour bases to give some glow to my brow bone and cheeks. I don't use them as a shadow base because in my opinion they do not work as great and give so lasting makeup that Paint pots. I also some how associate them as a true face makeups, so I always just end up to pic other base product
Paint pots work just perfect as a shadow base, I can highly recommend those! The texture is smooth and easy to apply. I like the creamy texture a lot. Bare study is very nice neutral PP, you can use with any eye shadow shades. So I think that it’s quite versatile and because of that reason for me it’s definitely a must have thing in my kit. Perky is as a shade nearer to Hush CCB. Both of them have a great texture. I concluded that you would like your base to have some colour on it too, because two of the shades that you mentioned were soft kind of peachy shades. So.. I would in that reason recommend you to get Perky PP. You can control the colour pay off of the base by applying it just lightly for get a natural sheer result . Or if you want more colour, or take base product a bit more to your brush(/fingertip) and voilá!

Hush is not a good base for oily lids. You can use it as a highlighter instead.
I also like Paint Pots as a base - Painterly is a great neutral color. I also like Delft, Greenstroke or Rollickin'.

Re: eye primers.. I get confused.. "hush" cream colour base or "bare canvas" or "perk
Yep - I tried hush a few weeks back, and it did crease on me, and i have super dry skin and lids...
Paint pots are magic, as is bare canvas.
Lately ive been using bare canvas and bare study paint pot over, for some extra glimmer, and the staying power is fantastic.
Also Rubenesque is a lovely colour if your looking for peachy coloured bases.
Try the ccb - maybe it will work for you, but not much creases on me, and this did...

i like to use Two Face Shadow Insurance in conjunction with paint pots or a cream eyeshadow. i find using the primer helps make a seal against the oil from the skin and the base makes the colors more vivid and really pop and both make the shadow stick like crazy. and maybe im crazy but i swear Shadow Insurance makes mine waterproof too.

Without a doubt, I'd totally recommend Urban Decay Primer Potion.
It really works for me, and I have very oily lids.
It keeps my colour on all day without creasing

I have been using Clinique Touch Tint for Eyes in Natural Suede ever since I began using MU. It lasts forever and I have never had any creasing.
A lot of people highly recommend UDPP, and for a while I considered it. Then I realized that there is no need to shell out extra money when I am in love with the primer I already have!
