Hey guys,

I'm currently on the hunt for a good eye lid primer. I've heard raving reviews about MACs Paint Pot and Urban Decays eyelid primer.

What would you vote on?

Thanks mucho! :)

You've have to get your hands on LimeCrime candy eye primer. I've used everything from paint pots, shadow insurance, ud potion, bars primer. And nothing compares to LimeCrime.

Ones a base and one is a primer. primer prevents creasing.Two different things.Base will enhance the color of the eye shadow.Some products have both.

Just don't use Revlon photo ready eye primer it doesn't work and it creases, I've had better luck with Mac cream shadow as a base and it lasts all day and really brings out the real color of the shadow.

@Alma M, any examples of products that work both as a primer and base?

I have both and prefer the M.A.C. Paint pot. It seems to grab better (using the matte finish).

Elf eyelid primer is great! I use it everyday and it enhances pigment and keeps things locked down for only $1.

Urban Decay's was horrible for me. The ones that work for me are Wet n Wilds and Lorac Behind the Scenes.
