i love this primer i dont know why it doesnt get talked about on youtube or blogs.i have the oiliest lids on the planet im at work for about 8-11 hours depending on my shift and i dont have time to re-apply my makeup. the girls at work are always cold so the unfortunatly for me they keep the heat on high, and as gross as it sound im a sweaty girl so it tend to prespire through the day. even with and the heat and sweat and oil my shadow does not budge!!! i was in complete shock when i first used it and i got into my car and my shadow looked like it did in the morning. the ultimate test was when i did a smokey eye for going out dancing and a club and obiviously there is sweating invloved and the same no smudging creasing pure perfection. i was totally against primers after trying ud potion primer and tf shadow insurence i find them over hyped and expensive. this isnt inexspensive but its worth every penny. the only prob is u need just spec and rub it it very well. this lasts forever! i love it and def recommend this. i saw they just came out w diffrent shades now i want to some instead of using paint pots. hope this helps

They have re-done the packaging and it contains almost double product than what this pen holds. I love this stuff; better than MAC's paint pot and UD primer potion IMHO. I will wear a smoky eye on a night out over this primer and I'll wake up with a flawless smoky eye. I swear by it, I don't think I'd ever change brands. One minor thing I should mention is it dries very quickly so it makes blending somewhat difficult especially if you're not that great at working with eyeshadow. Bottom line, this stuff stays in place and won't budge!

I like this primer a lot more than udpp. It doesn't emphaize dry spots like the udpp and it keeps my shadow in place all day. My lids are very oily although i usually get some dry patches around my brows. With the primer potion it was hard to blend my shadows and although you would get a lot of product it ended up drying out while still in the tube. It's very easy to blend shadows with this primer. What i don't like is how small the tube is especially for the price. I recently bought a backup when it was on sale at ulta for $12 the other day
I'm pretty impressed with this. This really does keep my shadow in place all day. The only issue I have with this primer is that it dries really quickly so you need to spread it quickly. It is a good primer and I would repurchase.

I have never used an eyelid primer before but it really does make a difference in the application of eye shadows (I only use minerals) by making them stay put. I holds so well that I have a slight amount of difficulty when trying to wash my face. I personally love the look of the sleek white metal packaging. I hope that I can find a way to reuse it once it's empty. However, I wish that the applicator tip was just plain silicone because excess product sticks to the fibers and gets it dirty looking and can't simply be wiped clean. The cap doesn't exactly go on tightly and there is only a tiny amount of primer here! Another thing I have to complain about is the fact that the ingredients aren't so natural even though this is the most natural eyelid primer I have seen so far without talc included as an ingredient. I'll use this until I find a better alternative.
This is literally an oily eyelids girl's dream! This is the only eyelid primer that did not make my eyeshadow crease after wearing it all day long! It's amazing. Just amazing.

This makes the dry skin around my over-40 eye area look crepey. Might be a good primer for those with less dry skin.

this primer is actually a really good one it makes the eye shadow colour a lot brighter and true and they do last just about the whole day.My only problem with it is,that when I apply it with my fingers,It is just completely transparent and I can't see when I already have it on and where I missed a spot,And that's just annoying sine I have big eyes and hence big eyelids.I don't want to use a brush because it's just too wasteful and this is why I shall not buy this again though it's a very good product

ive tried the urban decay primer potion, too faced eyeshadow insurance, mac paint pot, and tarte's primer - but BE's eyelid primer keeps my eyeshadow vibrant and allows no smudging at all even until the end of the day. esp after they have redesigned the packaging, this product is easier to use now. love this!
