Cease the Crease!

We have all been there. You do your eye makeup in the morning, and by mid-afternoon, your eyeshadow has taken it upon itself to pool in the crease of your eyelid, making a mess! This is a makeup faux pas you should never have to worry about again, thanks to the magic of eye primers. I have three tried and true primers to share with my conscious beauties!



The newest addition to my primer collection not only primes your lids, it also acts as a concealer and cancels out any color in your skin, so your eyeshadow color stays true. MAC's Painterly Paint Pot is similar to my skin tone, and gives me a blank palette to do whatever fun eye makeup my heart desires! The paint pot is only $16.50, and comes with enough product to last you a year.



My other fav eye primer is the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. It comes in a small blue tube, has a slight tint to it, goes on creamy, and dries with a smooth consistency. This primer is amazing; the oils of my skin don't have a fighting chance when I use this as a primer! This small tube runs $17.00 and can be found at Sephora.





Urban Decay also makes a good quality eye primer called Eyeshadow Primer Potion. I have used this primer quite a bit (it was my go to product before Too Faced), and it does work really good. I recommend this product if you like Urban Decay, however I don't like the tube it comes in, which can be really tricky to get product out of when you are getting low. This primer sells for $18.00 at Sephora as well, but I would definitely encourage you to try one of the first two primers before buying this one!
