I never wear eyeshadow without putting the shadow insurance on first because it makes the eyeshadow go on much more intense and smoother. It makes your eyeshadow last all day long without creasing, fading, or smudging. The packaging is very portable and convenient and since it's in a tube, you get every drop out.

Loved this when I first bought it, but noticed that it became very oily and liquidy within the first two months. Like the oil was separating for some reason. I tried mixing it up in the tube thinking maybe it is just separating, but it didn't help.
The price is decent, and the tube was great compared to UDPP, but it turned to crap too quickly for my liking.
Love this. L.O.V.E this. My eyelids are really greasy and prone to creasing, but that doesn't happen when I remember to pop som shadow insurance on before sahdow and liner. It is well worth the price and makes my eyelids look more even in color and feel nice and hydrated too.
This is pretty good. I used UDPP before and loved it, but wanted to try TFSI because of UDPP's terrible bottle. This has much better packaging, very easy to apply, but I'm going to have to say I prefer UDPP on my lids. My lids are more greasy than dry and after 6 hours or so wearing TFSI my e/s creases on me.
After being able to wear UDPP for 12hrs + with no creasing whatsoever I'm disappointed. I like putting on my makeup and being able to forget about it until I remove it, and I can't do that with TFSI. Having said that it's still a very good primer, and certainly I'll keep using it. Maybe by the time I finish it Urban Decay with have changed their packaging!
Too Faced Shadow Insurance was the very first eyeshadow primer i have ever purchased and i liked it. I don't wear eye shadow very often so before even half the bottle was gone it was separating or something to the point i just had to throw it out. I tried to mix it in the tube but that just doesn't work. I'm trying something else now and may repurchase since it does work well. I just wish it had lasted longer.
This is by far the best primer I have used. Prior to TFSI, I used UDPP, but for some reason I started experiencing dry eyelids...they were actually a little irritated. Anyway, I gave TFSI a shot since everyone on YT was raving about it. I love it. My shadow stays put all day and I don't have to perform surgery on a bottle to get the rest of the product out!!!
I received this product as a sample from a Sephora purchase months ago. I was really excited to try it since I was a faithful Urban Decay Primer Potion user.
It feels creamier than UDPP (maybe it's just me) and the squeeze tube packaging is WAY better than Urban Decay's genie bottle and wand applicator that doesn't get every single drop of product so you still have product left when you think you're out of it.
I'm going to buy the regular size soon. I'm not even done using the sample size I received months ago. You only need a little bit (a drop) of the product to use. Does not crease on me at all. Eyeshadow looks fresh all day. From initial application to whenever I remove my makeup.
Will definitely repurchase. No more UDPP.

OVERALL
great primer and i've tried millions (from benefit's f.y. eye, urban decay primer potion, mac's prep 'n prime, mac paint pots, mac shadesticks, nyx jumbo pencils...etc) and this is the best one yet. for extra protection, i use a mac paint pot in painterly on top of this primer and my eyeshadow stays on all day and night! what i really love is the packaging. i've had my primer for almost 6 months now and i still have a lot left to use. and it still has the same texture as it did when i first bought it. will repurchase!

I'd never used an eye primer before this, but I got a free sample from Sephora so I figured that I'd try it out for Halloween. I'm really impressed with this. It was easy to apply, my eyeshadow looked more vibrant than usual and didn't crease (which I didn't think was possible), and, ten hours after I had applied it, my make-up looked like I had just put it on (I never even had to touch it up). I will definitely be buying the full-sized version of this in the future.
