Right now I use NYX eye shadow base and every once in a while a NYX Jumbo pencil. But I have noticed that a lot of people have used other items for bases. What are your favorite bases or other products that act as a good base?

I actually use an eye primer that I mad myself. I have never used any other, but I like the way it works for me, if you want me to I will tell you what I use :D

I use the bare minerals eye primers. I like them a lot. I don't tend to have issues with creasing as it is, but they do help with the mineral eyeshadows and pigments when I use them.

I use pretty much anything with a thick creamy consistency. A gel liner, cream eyeshadow. I grab for the NYX Jumbo Pencils or Bases more than anything though.

I love using either clinique touch base in the color 10 canvas or urban decay primer potion! Both make my eye shadows pop and stay on all day and night!

All time favorite NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils! Milk is popular and I love it! I also have heard about MAC Paint Pots, have yet to try it though. I also love Benefit's cream shadow, really pigmented and don't crease (for me).

What exactly are MAC Paint Pots? Are the cream eye shadows or bases?

Well I use the urban decay eyeshadow base, NYX jumbo pencils, when I didn't have an eyeshdow base I tried concealer... not the best thing, but worked.

mac paint pots are 2 in one you could say...
they can be used as bases for other colors or on their own(cream eyeshadow that dries), so it only depends what you want to do with them.
Hope that helps a bit more.

More often than not I use the original Urban Decay primer. I prefer the Paints from MAC, as the Paintpots crease on my greaseball lids. LOL I've also fallen in love with Annabelle's Smoothies & Tarte's EmphasEYES.

In terms of a colour base, I dig the cream finish NYX Jumbo Pencils & MAC Paintpots. Occasionally, I'll foil pigments as a colour base as well.
