My mom loves to wear makeup but is having trouble finding something to help her achieve a smooth application. She has oily eyelids naturally but she says when she puts eye shadow on it looks like the desert. It gets lines, creases, it feathers and fades. She asked me to post and try to get some help. I personally think she needs something with a silicone filling agent. I have been looking around and haven't found any products that would help. Please comment with tips and product suggestions!! Thanks a lot!!

Primers are meant to smooth the area of application and therefore ease the process of application. If she has excessive wrinkling, that's something else, but a good primer will prevent the creasing and fading regardless. 

I've been watchin a lot of vid, I don't know myself, but they all have said that the Anastasia's eyeshadows are really hydrating, plus they help to prevent more wrinkles...
I need to try it, but from what I've heard sounds amazing,
and yes.
I'm with @Jo S.
a good primer should help a lot, I think that UD primer potion is good but is really dring, I would check out first the too faced primer and see how that one work for ur mom :)
hope that helps, something I do too, is I apply an eye cream first before applying the eye primer :)

Thank you both very much!! My mom went on Amazon.com and found a pore perfecting cream and she's going to try that, it's from UD and they say it adds moisture to the application spot. The advice is very much appreciated!!!

Sounds great Briana! Also keep in mind that if there's a Sephora near you, they're great with samples, so she can just walk in and ask to see some products that might give her the results she's looking for, and the sales rep can prepare her a couple of free samples right on the spot. Always best to try before you buy, IMO.  :)
