I have a bride to do makeup for in the spring, I have done her makeup several times already for other events. while she's always been pleased with the results she has noticed that her shadow always creased regardless of what primer I've used ((everything - udpp, tfsi, Mac paint pots, elf eye shadow primer)) I'm running out of options and I want her makeup to be perfect on her big day - help!!

Try the PAINTS from MAC, they have even more silicone than the paint pots, which absorb even more oil. blot powder from MAC over top of the finished look will help to

Have you tried maybe a cream concealer as a base? They usually dry to a really matte finish and don't allow much oil to seep through. And if they are SUPER oily you could even set the foundation with a nude shadow and then work from there.
I haven't personally tried Milk of Magnesia, but I know a lot of people rave swear by it as a primer to prevent oil from ruining makeup. I imagine dabbing a little on a q-tip and applying to the clients lid could help! I'm not sure if it's completely safe or not, just thought I would offer some input.

PS: Sorry about the other day, truce? = )
