I've tried them all and MAC paintpots are the bomb. Urban Decay Primer Potion is my second.

I was a daily user of Urban Decay Primer Potion but then it started drying out my lids to the point of flaky dry skin so I switched over to MAC Paintpots. The Paintpots work like a dream.

I like Urban Decay Primer Potion, but only with a translucent powder over it. Without the powder, I find that, for me personally, my e/s will still crease and fade. I also liked MAC Prep & Prime and Michael Todd Long Lasting creme shadow in Nude with powder over it. 

Thank you ladies I will be sure to try out the paint pots :)

KorresUSA worked best on me and my oily eyelids.

Urban Decay primer potion but I just say a video for a cheaper dup. It's by paladio which is sold at Sally's. I haven't tried it but I'm excited to see if it works.

Urban decay primer potion is amazing! I have had mine for over 6 months and I haven't used a quarter of it, and I use it everyday. The quality is amazing, and my makeup lasts for 24 hours, I wear it for work and my eye makeup doesn't budge. I have tried many primers, and nothing can compare to it.

I love paint pots, Painterly is my favourite for priming and evening out the eyelid pigmentation. However, in the hot days of summer it creased on me. I've also used Urban Decay Primer Potion - the sample sizes that came with the Naked Palette, and it's great, no creasing but is expensive. I picked up Prestige Eye Primer for $10 (it's a huge tube that's going to last a long time) and it works every bit as well as the UDPP so going to stick with that until I can get back to Painterly.

I really like the E.L.F. mineral primer, but I do want to give the Urban Decay Primer Potion a go. Maybe try the E.L.F. first? it's a lot cheaper and you might find it works for you too :)
