    This product did nothing for my eye shadows. It didn't even produce a good base. I tried it a few times and each time I used it, my shadow creased and wore off. I'm going to stick with my trust U/D...

    I am usually a MAC lover. This product was disappointing. Thick, hard to work with and did not provide a nice base. Compared to my HG Urban Decay primer potion, this did not even compare.

    This is the worst buy I ever have in my entire make up history. I have oily lid. This product does not do anything for me at all. My eye shadow crease in about half an hour. I have no idea how ppl...

    I bought this primer two days ago because my UDPP was drying out and I figured that I might as well give it a try since most bases/colors/etc, work on me. I'm so so so sad and disappointed because...

    Not a bad product if creasing is the issue, I dont buy cheap e/s so I dont have creases, but it doesnt make it last any longer which is why I got it. So with that disappointment, I wouldnt buy...

    I don't understand why this gets so many bad reviews. I haven't tried a lot of primers, but I don't think this is a bad product. It is light in color so I wouldn't recommend it to those with...

    My eyelids aren't particularly oily but they have a brownish discolouration due to my mediterranean complexion. This product works wonders on me. It is light, kind of powdery and gives a silky...

    I bought this to make my eyeshadow last longer, and to prevent it from creasing. It did neither of these things. With my oily skin (and eyelids) it actually creased itself on my eyelids before I...

    I'm surprised at the low ratings. I like this a lot, both as a lid primer and as a way to even out my pigmented lids. Sometimes I use it w/o shadow on no-makeup days. I'd buy this gain, but at...

    I found this procuct almost entirely useless. Too sheer to provide any noteworthy coverage (that's not what it's intended for anyway), and otherwise ineffective. It dried up my lids for no apparent...

    This is my HG eye primer! It helps my eye shadows last all days and still look vibrant. The price is ok since you only need very little. If you use it daily I assume that you only need to...

    I would only apply this product to the eye lids with a MAC 217 or 224 to sheer it out and not crease because very little goes along way! ENGLARGED PORES your problem? Pat a small amount on...

    Really made my eyelids dry and it CAUSED creasing instead of preventing it. You'd be better off without an eye base in the case of this product. Only positive thing is that it made the color more...

    for me the formula is to slippery which leads to creasing. I don't think its a good base b/c of that reason. If I wanted creasing I wouldn't even bother with a primer lol
