Urban Decay

I really love this primer. I use it on all eyes skin types. I did a clients makeup and her eyeshadow was still on the next day and still looking nice. If thats not proof then I dont know what is! I just think the price for the amount of product is a bit steep. I'm not keen on the packaging. It's better than it used to be but why can it not just be in a squeezy tube?? I have yet to find a comparable eyeshadow primer. Mac paint pot is not good for oily lids.

I purchased this in Brown Sugar, I have medium brownish/auburnish hair, brown eyes, NW25.... This is such a great and super cute product. It's $30, but you get 2 brow powders, wax, and the adorable little suitcase has a drawer underneath with mini tweezers and brushes, with a mirror! It's a lot of product that will last ages. I have decided that at 47 yo, I much prefer the natural look of brow powder over pomades.. I have Anastasia dip brow, and MAC's gel pomade and just haven't liked the results lately, I'm definitely over the whole super fake brow look, and will just use them as gel eyeliners I guess, or give them to my niece, what a waste. But I am really pleased with this product from Urban Decay, and definitely recommend!

Finish - Natural. Not too dewy, not too matte. Incredibly natural. I've been told it looks like a second skin. Which I guess makes sense considering its name. It lives up to its reputation!

Coverage - Light-medium. Definitely a very light-weight foundation. It is buildable to medium without looking cakey at all but if you have deep discoloration and bad acne, this isn't going to completely cover it. It will even out skin-tone and moderately cover acne. However, because it is light-weight it feels really comfortable on the skin. Feels like I'm not even wearing foundation.

Staying Power Average/Poor. After about 4 hours, it starts to fade/get a little oily. Towards the end of the day, it feels like I lose a lot of coverage because of the fading which is why I took a lippie off.

Overall: I definitely recommend and would repurchase. Even though I wish the staying power was better, everything else about this foundation makes it one of the best foundations I have in my collection. It's also good for my acne-prone skin as it did not break me out.

I received a mini of this as a 100-pt perk. I am not really a liquid lipstick person but the shade appealed to me. It is a beautiful brick rose color, i am NC 30, and i feel very pretty in this. It really lasts (for hours) but feels light and comfortable. I put this on and forgot about it......meaning i did not have to re-apply. This would be perfect for a workday, for an event, or anytime you may not want to be bothered with touch-ups. I applied one coat and went on about my day. Smooth lips are a must with this so i scrubbed my lips with a wet washcloth. Then i apply a lipbalm and leave it on a few minutes, then wipe lips clean. The key here is having smooth, clean lips before application. That is a good idea with lipcolor in general, but is a must with liquid lipsticks. This is a beautiful shade that goes on true and has staying power while still wearing comfortably. I can see this shade looking beautiful on many skintones. I used my mini several times and i have already bought a full size. I will keep the full size at home and carry the mini in my purse.

I love this I have extremely dry rosacea prone skin and this is made in conjunction with Skindanavia (the holy trail of setting sprays). However, this is oil free and as my rosacea hates oil it is a must.
Agree with the reviewers who say it takes the powder look away. I'm a bit of an 80s girl with my makeup as in powder after foundation dust off excess and this makes me look more natural. Not sure about partying in it all night as I can't do that anymore but it definately makes my face last longer and given my commute to work is just over 1.5 hours each way it needs to last.
