Prime Time, all the time - 11.20.09
Quick Take: crease resistant

This is an amazing primer! The first day I used it, I tried it with my inexpensive drug-store eyeshadow that creases in about three hours...well, I went from 6 a.m.-10 p.m.with no creasing! So I tried again the next day, and the next...I have oily skin, and this is what I've always been looking for.

Quick Take: color correcting

A little bit goes a long ways for this product. I use both bareminerals eyecolor and also lorel from the local drugstores. The color stays on all day, and feels lightweight. I would recommend this product any day.

This product is the best! Before I started using the Prime Time primer my eyeshadow would crease after only a couple of hours and after I started using it my eyeshadow has stayed for the entire day! I'm so glad that I stumbled across this product because I plan on only buying this type of eyelid primer!

Awesome Primer - 11.19.09
Quick Take: crease resistant

I have been using this for a year and it works great. I have tried most other primers and this was the only one that worked for me to have the eyeshadow last past lunch.

Love it! Love it! Love it! - 11.19.09
Quick Take: crease resistant

Finally found something works great for me! My eye makeup never stays!!! I'm also frustrated with this problem! and I don't like to bring my makeup for touch up later especially when I go out with small purse. I have tried other primer before, but I never had any result as good as this! My eye makeup stays all day long! I was amazed after the 1st day using it!!! I had it on with Urban Decay cream shadow. And it didn't even move! LOVE IT!!!

Great primer - 11.17.09
Quick Take: crease resistant, creamy

I have used this product before in a limited edition set from Bare Escentuals. It lasted me about six months and I have been very pleased with it. I can definitely tell a difference when I do not wear this product with eyeshadow. I have now purchased the full size version and am happy with it as well and I think it is affordable as well.

Must have - 11.16.09
Quick Take: crease resistant, creamy

I have tried other eye primers and they all work the same to me...but this one last the longest. So you basically are getting a better value in my opinion. I dont use the tip to apply...I just put a small dot on my finger for each eyelid.
If youve never used a primer you dont know what youre missing. Your colors will be truer and it will last all day.

Very Drying - 11.16.09
After using this product, my eyelids actually wrinkled! I instantly aged about 10 years - not what I was trying to accomplish. The formula is very drying and putting powder eyeshadow over it makes it even worse. It's going back.

The BEST Eyelid Primer EVER! - 11.16.09
Quick Take: crease resistant, creamy

I've used eyelid primers in the past but the Bare Escentuals Prime Time is the absolute best product. It lets the shadows glide on and STAY PUT! no creases or oily lids at the end of the day. I cant live without it. I highly reccomend this product.

a classic staple - 11.14.09
Quick Take: crease resistant, creamy, color correcting, non-drying

I love this and have for several years. I ran out a few weeks ago and used my back up UDPP and noticed my eyelids were getting dry and flakey. As soon as I restocked with the BE all the itching and flaking went away. I always order more than one so this doesn't happen again.

This primer is amazing. My shadow looks as fresh and true to color when I remove it at night as it did when I put it on in the morning. Its especially great for the glitters and shimmers! Love, Love, Love!!!

This is the perfect shade for my skin, and it holds shadow really well. I do wish the applicator had a wider and softer brush tip for easier application.

Helps eye shadow stay put - 11.11.09
I have been using this for a few years and it really helps my eye shadow stay in place all day. I had issues with my shadow sliding (due to oily lids..weird, I know). This product has really been helpful. Makes a nice base for shadow even if you don't have issues. Nice applicator too. Wish it came in a larger size. Seems a bit pricey, for the size, but it's a make up staple for me.

Best eyelid primer ever! - 11.11.09
Quick Take: crease resistant, creamy

I can't go without an eyelid primer or I get SERIOUS creasing and my eyes just look like a mess. I've tried many and had been using Urban Decay's primer potion for a long time. I tried this on the recommendation of a MA and I love it! It goes on smoothly, lasts all day (longer than UD's primer potion) and sets a nice foundation for eye shadows. I've even used a little under my eyes on the days i plan to cover dark circles. My only gripe is not knowing when it is going to run out, but I just keep a back-up handy.

not worth it - 11.11.09
I tried this because I was having problems with my BE eyeshadow migrating to my under-eye by end of day. I didn't really notice a difference when using this. Not a good value as far as amount of product for the price.

I never put on eyeshadow without this primer. It allows the shadow to go on smoothly and my eyeshadow stays on all day without touchups.
