Creasing Eyeliner and Eyeshadow.

Okay so I'm a fan of really heavy eyeliner, sometimes all the way around the eye. But, whenever I do this or use eyeshadow on the lower lash line, it creases. I'm using primer (previously: bareMinerals Prime Time Eye Primer and now the UD Primer Potion). Are there any primers that actually stop this or anything I can do to keep it from creasing?

I would use a eyeshadow base.
like the MAC paint pot.

I had this problem but since I started using a MAC paint pot my eyeshadows stay so much better and don't crease

The urban decay eye primer potion is fabulous! I've been using it for about 2 years now and don't plan on switching anytime soon

My holy grail eye primer is the Lorac Behind the Scenes Eye Primer, I have very hooded eyes that are prone to creasing bit I've never experienced creasing since I started using that primer (:

I agree with Les and Alex, a paint pot should do the trick!

The Paint Pots should absolutely prevent creasing from occurring; they are very high quality products and are well worth trying out!

Is it only creasing on the lower lash line? I'm surprised that Primer Potion isn't working well cause it's the best primer I have used. Sometimes I think skin type can factor into creasing cause of oily lids, dry lids, etc. I do think it would be beneficial to use a base. If the problem is under the eye, I know a great video that could help you out. FYI it's mainly to prevent creasing concealer but I'm sure it can be applied to eyeshadow as well.
