I went testing primers today. But in a midst of a rush. I had to leave.
I tested Too Faced ( Sucked, not investing any $$ into that. )
Urban Decays Primers were really good and really bought out the color.

However, since I had to leave I was wondering if anyone has tried a primer better than Urban Decay? ( And what's the difference with the primer potions, there were 4 different ones and I wasn't able to find anything to read about them. )

I like both the too faced and urban decay. I also like bare minerals lid primer it's pretty nice. The difference in the primer potion is that they're different shades of color and only two dont have a shimmer or highlighter quality to it.

I was very disappointed in too faced, I love too faced and expected much more. I Put on both UD and Too Faced, then applied the eyeshadow to each one and Urban Decay did a much more better job.

Right now I'm looking at the original one, and sin. Does anyone own either/or and which performed better if they tried?

I have the original, Eden, and greed but not the sin. They're about the same for me.

Mac paint pots work the best for me

I'm buying at Ulta, so Mac is not a valid option.
I was reading about Eden, but my eyes have creases from it's eye shape. Apparently Eden doesn't do too well with that.. is this true? I only read it on one review.

I have thee urban decay primer but tend to read over for my tarte amazonian clay waterproof primer. it blocks out color and keeps eyeshadow on much longer than UD.

How does it do with color? I don't have any issues with my eyeshadow disappearing or water, it never budges even though I don't wear an eye primer. My main concern is the way it brings out color.

I love love love the NARS primer. Its just one and has no color once you rub it in. Its the best I have used you should try it out if you can't find anything else!(:

UD Primer Potion brings out the color really well. But if you want an extra pop, try layering a Maybelline Color Tattoo on top of it. The NYX jumbo eye pencils work great too. They have a huge variety of colors. I put on the UDPP and then use a NYX pencil in a corresponding color to the eyeshadow I'm using.

I can't wait to put on primers on my wrist and test out eyeshadow to see what result I will get, lol. I've written them all down.
I was trying to check out Nars on Ulta though and it seems they don't carry it, it's upsetting because I really like Nars.

It doesn't on me but that could be due to my skin type. Some products work better or worst on different people. If your more concerned with color vibrancy I would definitely try the nxy jumbo pencils especially milk. I use the nxy and color tattoo eyeshadows as base for my eyeshadows.

The smash box lid primer is really nice and holds all day and doesn't crease, I think it's a but cheaper then too faced and ud also.

I love it for color but the staying all day power is amazing. I have had it for a month and not one time have I seen a crease!

I'm not buying from Sephora. I made a return worth about $150 ( store credit because it was past 60 days ) to exchange this sucky curling wand for heated rollers that cost me $30. I don't have any cash so I'm not going to spend what little I have at sephora when I have like $90+ to spend at Ulta, its why I'm limited.

Why did you have to spend 30?

Oct 10, 2013

Because I wanted heated rollers. :)
