    I'm really astonished nobody seems to like this...I really like it and what I like about it is that it doesn't change the finish of the eyeshadow hence it is a really good product for daywear, I...

    This came in the Hazel Eyes kit. Nice consistency, easy to apply, looks darker than it is once on (I'm an NC25). However, I have oily lids, and 8 hours later I have puddles of oily color in my...

    Got this as a sample. Comparing it to Two Faced and Palladio primers, this just doesn't stand up at all. Two hours since putting on my eye shadow and parts of it are missing already. I...

    This was part of my 500 point perk at Sephora. I got a box of Smashbox sample-sized products. I normally use Urban Decay's Primer Potion but I wanted to use this up. After a 3-4 hours, the problem...

    So yea, I am so glad that I got a sample of this stuff, and didn't buy it. The stuff makes a difference, but hardly. I'm not entirely sure if it made my eyeshadow last longer, but it if it did, it...

    I am a bit disappointed with the primer. It went on fine, equal to any other primer I've tried. The color is too yellow for me, though, I look pretty awful until I get shadow over the top of...

    I was surprised by the low ratings on this primer, not that it's a remarkable primer, it's average. I didn't find that TFSI or UDPP or even e.l.f.'s dollar primer was any worse or any better. It's...

    This came as part of Smashbox's Eye Wish Palette. I have uneven discoloration on my eyelids - and only after two layers did this come close to doing anything about that. I did notice that my...

    This lid primer sucks. My eyeshadow creases almost immediately after I put it on. The only thing this primer is good for is giving a hint of color to even out your skin tone on your lids. This...

    I have a love/hate relationship with this. As i love that it has a color to it and it's not transparent like UDDP or TFSI. It does hide the veining i have on my lids. I don't know if it was the...

    the primer was very dry and not spreadable or blendable at all. had the consistancy of a badly dried-up concealer. packaging made it hard to get the product. once the product was on the eyes it did...

    I got a sample size of this from Sephora's 500 points reward deal, and this is not good. It does make your eyelid dry and it mattifies the color of your eyeshadow, so it downplays the color...

    I did not find this product to be of any use except to even out the colour of my lids. I have tried using Bare Minerals instead and it works great. I have yet to try UDPP or TFSI.
