Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant
Nice, creamy base that turns to powder and lasts all day. This really sets my Bare Minerals eye shadows nicely and does not crease by the afternoon. Just as good or better than the Urban Decay primer.

Best Eyelid Primer
-04.29.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant, long lasting
I am obsessed with this primer! A coworker introduced me to it last year and I always use it if I want my eye makeup to last all day and into the night. It won't budge, even after I've dunked my face in water to wash it, I have to use make up remover. Awesome product and I love how its oil-free and healthy for my skin.

Best eyelid primer!!!
-04.14.13
I have tried a variety of top eyelid primers. The bareMinerals original eyelid primer is the best. Eye shadow stays on-doesn't crease, doesn't flake. I even tried the tinted ones and they too are great as just eye shadows!

Love it!
-04.12.13
I don't put eye shadow on without this. I've tried several other brands & haven't found one yet that comes close to working like BE. I put it on in the morning & it stays on all day. I have a bad habit of sleeping in my make-up & even after that, my shadow is still on from the day before.

Fantastic
-04.12.13
This is the best primer I've used. Better than two faced. You only need a small amount and don't have to wait for it to dry. It keeps the eyeshadow in place ALL day and keeps the color vibrant. I get creasing and this eliminated the creasing even after a full day! LOVE IT

This product primes the eyelid and keeps shadow looking fresh all day. I hate to wash it off at the end of the day.

Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I love, love, love this eyelid primer!! I am at the point where I don't even put on my eyeshadow and liner without this primer. It is my absolute favorite product. And don't tell anyone, but I can get away with doing my eye makeup before going out at night (with the primer) and still having done up eyes the next morning for my workout. Ha!

I have very oily skin - and next to no visible eyelid so I rarely wore any shadow. This primer makes my shadow last all day - and doesn't crease or wear off! Love it

This eyelid primer does exactly what it purports to do. It's simple and my makeup stays put for hours and hours. I recommend using it on both upper and lower lid.

FANTASTIC!
-03.27.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant, color correcting, non-greasy, long lasting
I have gone through so many different shadow primers trying to find one that actually stayed on and wasn't greasy. This one is the BEST I have come across, this and the shadow primer by Lorac is a very close second. It stays on all day (or night) until you take it off, doesn't crease or smear--I love it! It's kinda pricy for how tiny it is, but I have wasted so much money on ones that don't work so it's worth it.

good stuff
-03.24.13
Quick Take: color correcting, creamy, crease resistant, brightening
I've no shortage of really good eye shadow primers that I am very happy with so wouldn't have tried this except that I got a decent sized sample of it with The Star Treatment eye shadow palette. I was pleased to experience just how good this primer is. Holds shadow in place all day and then some. It has a nice, brightening effect on its own and it works very much like the Bare Minerals Primer Shadows in that it just doesn't budge. The texture is excellent - it applies smoothly and evenly without ever balling up on itself. When I finish one of the primers I have on the go right now, I would gladly purchase the full size of this primer.

Long-lasting primer
-03.18.13
Quick Take: creamy, crease resistant
I've tried several primers, but this will forever be a go-to. Any eyeshadow I use after using the primer stays vibrant, fresh, and crease free all day long. It also brightens my eyelids on its own. I give it four stars, because I do not like the packaging. The original packaging distributed the product better.
