Some beautythings I really enjoy spending money on, and some I just can't be bothered if something cheaper is just as good. Eyeshadow primers are one of those things.. I have an oily skin, and my eyeshadows often crease really badly throughout the day. I lived with it for years before I discovered something actually could be done about it!
I decided to try out the ELF eyeshadow primer, and the Urban Decay Primer Potion in the Original formula.
So is it worth paying more for an eyeshadowprimer? In my case, YES! Ofcourse I have not tried all drugstore primers, but I have to say I was very disappointed in the ELF eyeshadow primer. It goes on quite smooth, and seemless, but it doesn't hold up and my eyeshadow creases when I use it. Maybe that isn't the case, if you have less oily lids. Also, you can't really beat the price. I think it's about 3-4 dollars or even less!
After my disappointing experience with ELF I decided to splurge on the Urban Decay eyeshadow primer potion. I had heard so many great things about it, so I was expecting it to be pretty great. And it was! My eyeshadow does not move, even after 8+ hours wear. I have gone through several tubes now, and don't see any reason to change it up. I love it! Also, it comes in 4 different colours which is cool. Two matte, and two shimmery colours. I love the matte, but I would imagine the others are just as good. The price is not cheap but you really pay for quality in this case. They recently changed the packaging from the genie with doefoot applicator to a tube you squeeze, I kind of miss the old version, but the product is still great!
