Whenever I wear eyeshadow, it always ends up clumped up in my crease. Why does this happen? I wear a small amount of eyeshadow on the my eyelid... Idk what's happening!

Eyelids are naturally oily and when you wear eyeshadow the powder particles clump to the oil and gather in the crease. If you wear eye shadow primer before you apply eyeshadow it won't crease anymore :) I would recommend Urban Decay Primer Potion! It works so well but there are cheaper ones in drug stores too that work very well!

Wear a primer. My favorite is the ELF one it's only like 1 dollar and it does the job perfectly.

Primer! either use an eyeshadow primer or just buy a normal primer and use it on your whole face including there(:

It also depends on how you apply your primer. If you use your finger then make sure to pat it in. If you rub in your primer, especially in a side to side motion, it is more likely to gather in your crease.

I would suggest a primer. I don't usually ever wear eyeshadow but primer definitely should help with keeping it from clumping.

I had the same problem and it sounds like you have my eyelids. Primer for me never fixed this problem. I put a translucent powder over my eyelids and the eyeshadow does not move throughout the whole day!! I suggest arabonnes (I think that's how you spell it) translucent pressed powder.

Oily lids man, the nars shadow primer is made for oily eyelids but you can use any primer really. I'm a control freak so I use the urban decay primer potion and a mac paint pot together most days.
