While the market is flooded with eye shadow primers, there are two that I personally like. Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original and L'oreal Magic De-crease Eyelid Primer. One is High End product while the second is a drug store one. Lets concentrate on the drug store product on this post, as I think I have raved about the first product in too many posts. If you want to see L'oreal Magic De-Crease Eyelid Primer in action, then make sure you check out my latest Make Up Tutorial.
L'oreal Magic De-crease Eye Lid Primer is readily available at most retailers. Its priced at $8.99, so its not quite a cheap drug store primer. I know brands like Elf or Wet'n Wild have eye shdow primers for much cheaper rates. I have been using thsi product for around 7 years or more. I have seen teh packaging change but the product formula remains the same.
It comes with a doe foot applicator, which makes application easier. Its a thick product but is super blendable. I have very dry skin, but this product does not cling to my dry patches. I use the product with the doe foot applicator then use my fingers to blend it in. I give it a minute to dry out before I start doing my eye shadows.
This extends the staying power of eye shadows. I have worn it for long hours and this product does not crease on me.
This is often compared to Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original,which is the holy grail of eye shadow primers. Price wise, it is much less for sure. But if you compare the relative prices and the amount of product available , its almost similar in proportion. The formulas are very similar and the color tone are almost exact. So its a great dupe for the original, if you are still testing waters for eye shadow primers. Its a great product for travel. This product delivers what it claims, which is not something we see in products quite often. The only problem I have with this product, is that it dries up in the tbe very fast.
Go ahead and give it a try. Let me know which of the two you liked better.
