and have been happy with it, but my make-up artist for my engagement shoot (check the post here) used this shadow and it was the Holy Grail I tell you!!For example take a look at my shadow in this picture:
The shadow legitimately lasted THREE ENTIRE DAYS!! Total confession right now, yes I was totally gross and washed around my face without washing off my eyeshadow. I just couldn't do it. It was so pretty and perfect and I couldn't believe how long it lasted. So in the name of science and blogging I trooped on and took this as a beauty experiment. The only thing I had to touch up was my eyeliner and curling my lashes (as well as putting on my "face" since I did wash that part off).
The Primer Potion ($18 ofr .34 oz) is availabe in four shades; Eden
, Greed
(Sephora exclusive), Original
(clear) and Sin
. There is even a set available to try them all here
. My make-up artist used Original and said she prefers that color best because it completely disappears and makes the shadow really vibrant and she's so right. My shadow didn't even crease or fade. I'm 100% a believer in the product! The bottle lasts forever and is worth every. single. penny.

Do you use a primer? I really only do on special occasions or if I'm going out after work and won't have time to touch-up. What primers do you use? What's worked for you?

Your eyes did look amazing! Totally writing this one down!
I have seen this a few times but I am so stuck in my mac ways...I love their paint pots-bare study is one of my favorites! maybe I'll have to splurge in the next month or so...spring time is almost here meaning a "valid" reason to do a make up update right?! ;)
ooo I've seen this but never invested...I'm so stuck in my mac ways that I usually use my paint pots as a primer-bare study is my favorite!! :)
thankfully spring is just around the corner which seems to be a good "reason" to update my make up drawer ;) thanks for sharing
I use Urban Decap primer and have been obsessed with it from day one! Love it!
ohh going to have to try this! where do they even sell urban decay? sephora?
I use this every time I wear eyeshadow. I love it so much!
Your eyes look so pretty in that picture! I can't believe it lasted 3 days!
Really loving your blog, by the way :)
xo, gina
That primer is my FAVORITE product. It works so well, I can't believe I ever lived without it.
OMG I got this over the weekend when I finally bought the Urban Decay Naked Pallete, it is amazinggggggg! and your eyes look sooooo good in the pic! can you fly to Seattle to do my makeup for my engagment pics ;)?!
Ahh I asked for this for Christmas but didn't get it lol. It's on my list of things to get, I've heard so many great things about it!
Thanks ladies!
You can buy the primer at Sephora, Ulta, and any department store that carries Urban Decay (I believe most Macys do).
I didn't do my make-up myself in the pic, it was done by a professional. She did an amazing job!
awww I want a tutorial for that shadow!
Think your make-up artist is a share-er? lol
I use the same primer on my whole face. Weird?
OMG, I thought I had seen you before I read your blog, Nicole did your makeup! It looked flawless.
It took me forever to actually get the primer potion and now I don't know what I would do without it. I have the shimmery primer and I'm going to pick up the plain one next.
your eyes look amazing! I have heard so much about this stuff I am going to have to try it out
I've had at least 2 posts about this! It's about time you listened to me!!
It's ok, about washing around the eyeshadow. I've totally done that if I've had my makeup done for an event.
I have been using it for about 2 years now and just adore it! It is a great investment for $18!
