This miracle eyeshadow primer is unmatched by any other in the beauty industry! The genie in this bottle fulfills three wishes: eyeshadow that lasts, more vibrant and lasting color, and absolutely NO creasing. Apply Primer Potion to lids before shadow application. It dries down almost instantly (and invisibly), creating smooth lids that are super powered eyeshadow magnets.

The formula is full of silicone, which you beauty mavens know makes for a smooth and silky application. Packaged in a pretty genie bottle, our Potion applies with a magic wand and flocked applicator. Loved by makeup junkies and beauty editors alike, Eyeshadow Primer Potion is a cult favourite and Urban Decay's #1 selling product.

WHY I LIKE THIS PRODUCT
I didn't really see the need for an eyeshadow primer before because most of the shadows that I use, such as Kate and Majolica Majorca, doesn't crease and the colours are already bery vibrant. However, I had heard such good things about this primer that I decided that it's worth a shot. I do have drug store eyeshadows (especially the lower end ones) as well, so I thought that this primer would be useful for those shadows.

I only like this primer. Yes, the primer does make the eyeshadows more vibrant and it makes some makeup last for hours. It's so strange, but when I use different brands of drugstore eyeshadows, the primer gives a different result. For example, it works great with Rimmel eyeshadows (long-lasting and bright colours) but when I used the new Maybelline quad that I bought, my shadows actually creased at the end of the day. It`s so strange. I`m not sure why this happens, but has this happened to anyone else?

Another reason why I only like this product is because of the packaging. Yes, the design is realy nice but I don't like how the bottl is not transparent. There's no way to see inside the bottle, thus, I'll have to guess when I've used up all the primer. I think I'll be really annoyed and frustrated when I'm almost out of the product.
