So, yes....I know these products are pricey but it is super worth it! My biggest pet peeve is when I go a long time, an outdoor event or any where that you need your shadows to stay on for a while and your shadows crease! It is the absolute worst! Am I right? Even sometimes with primer it won't hold. So, after many testings, I have came up with something that always works for me. Yes, many steps and products but it works!

Products: Urban Decay De-Slick In A Tube, Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer, MAC Paint Pot.
1. Apply De-Slick In A Tube all over your eyelids BEFORE you apply foundation (if you don't a foundation on your eyes or concealer then just apply it normally)
2. After applying foundation or concealer (if you do) apply the Urban Decay Primer
3. Lastly, apply whatever color of a MAC Paint Pot that you desire.

Have fun! Please let me know if you like this, tried this, what you think or if you have anything better!

You're right. I only use this when I am going to be going places where I will be needing my make up to last for a REALLY long time or somewhere where it might be hot and I could sweat. So far I've been using this for almost a year and it's worked very nicely for me! Thanks for your comment! I appreciate it love! <3

I also use the ud primer and love to use the paint pots with it to hold my shadow on in the humid heat of summer. I often just use the paint pot and primer with no powder eyeshadow, as I find the paint pot is the best when you are humid, sweaty, and hot it lasts a looong time and doesn't fade or crease as bad as most shadows. never tried the ud de-slick. This spring I am in love with the ud 24 shadow pencils, I will have to wait until the summer heat to see if they really hold up and last all day like my paint pots do. Thanks for the tip about the de-slick!!
