Hi! I'm on the hunt for a good eye make-up primer and if possible one that will help with the crepyness (sp)! on my eye lids and also just under where my concealer goes.
I got 2 absolutely brill eye palettes from Coastal Scents at a steel - have a look

Coastal Scents: 88 Piece Makeup Palette

I also got the really shimmery one too! The colours are amazing but i've found that on me I need a primer/base to really get the best of the colours.

So... I've been reading a few reviews on here and elsewhere and i'm just not sure which to go for!! I'd prefer a clear/invisible one and like before one that will hide/fill in the crepyness too ;)

Dr Feelgood
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Potion
Urban Retreat Eye Primer
No 7 Eye Primer
Mac (don't think this is clear tho??)

I don't want to spend a huge amount but want it to do a good job! :wink2:

Any ideas?
Thanks :hug:
 
I always use Benefit Lemon-Aid eyelid cream. lemon-aid : Benefit Cosmetics
It's brilliant stuff which I always apply especially on brides or anyone with a reddened lid.
 
Ooooh I have this in a little kit, would it be good for the crepyness?




Oooops no I havn't, it's the eyecon that i've got :(

God i'm such an idiot! I do have it!!
I've got 2 little kits and my 'Realness of concealness' has it in

Thats right, I have the 'Realness of Concealness' kit too, fantastic little box of goodies!:green:
 
Thanks for the heads up on Coastal Scents!
I've been looking for a palette of matte neutrals and they have one! I love my Cozmetic Lab range of makeups but they have so few matte colours, and so many of my clients are older so the shimmery pigments just accentuate their lines and crepey lids.
Thanks again!
 
Mac's Prep & Prime is fantastic I cant rave about it enough its light and will really hold colour for hours and hours without creasing..xxxxxx
 
I second lemon aid - i use this every day and it is a great base for eyeshadow and i use it under neath my eyes and it is brill for covering up bags and lines :)
 
just treated myself to a set of make up from urban decay and it has an eyeshadow primer, an eyeshadow, an eyeliner and a shimmer/glittter thingy. can't wait to play!
 

I love smashbox - photo finish, it is brilliant, its a primer which you can use on eyelids.

Another fantastic primer which helps fill in fine lines, wrinkles good for open pores etc is... Philosphey (spelt wrong) the secret.

Both a good investment for any make up artists / girls makeup kit!!
