I have tried everything to keep eyeshadow on my eyes but it comes off in an hour or two. Any products I should try?

Try urban decay primer potion or try putting a concealer on your eyes and then putting the eye shadows on top of it.

Try a primer. Urban Decay, Sephora Brand, Lorac, Too Faced, Nyx and Nars do great ones. I've never had a single problem with any of those primers, they keep my shadow on for easily 15 hours. Probably longer even than that. I can cry with them and nothing happens, I've been in pouring rain and nothing happened, I've been thrown into a pool and my makeup was still mostly intact.

I have tried NYC liquid foundation but it does not seem to hold it on. I will try the urban decay primer potion. Thanks!

If you do not want to buy the more expensive brands, like urban decay and Nyx then try the Milani brand at Walmart I bought their primer for 3.00 and it looks great! And it works well.

I use a cream shadow as a base that is a little darker than my skin color and apply my loose shadow on top of that. It keeps it on without creasing all day!

My mom uses Urban Decay Primer Potion and absolutely loves it! I've used Too Faced Shadow Insurance, Lorac's Behind the Scenes, Benefit's Stay Don't Stray, and NYX's HD Eyeshadow Base. All of them have worked really nicely for me so far, so I'd recommend investing in any of them. I've also heard some positive reviews regarding Elf's Essential Eyelid Primer. :)

Elf eyelid primer works like a charm & is only $1 if you're looking for something affordable. All of the other primers mentioned are great also!

Primers are key! You can use the urban decay primer potion for a great base. Cream eyeshadows are great by theirselves. Hope I helped! You can also look up great doupes for a cheaper cost.

Thanks guys! My cousin uses urban decay but I've heard it's pricey. I'm still probably going to try that or some of the others mentioned!

Primer by urban decay. And don't rub your eyes.

Kat Von D's eye primer (Sephora) or Benefit's Stay Don't Stray (Sephora/Ulta) are both amazing!

Get the nyx jumbo eye pencil in milk and use that as a base. its amazing. your eyeshadows will pop. good quality products have lasting power compared to the cheapr ones. also make sure you are using some good brushes as well but the general rule is that powder over cream will stick like glue.
