NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base ($24) A lightweight primer that creates a seamless canvas that keeps cream and powder eye color looking brilliant, fresh, and just-applied all day.
This smudge-proof eyeshadow base uses a unique polymer and mineral powder blend to get a firm grip on color for long-lasting, gorgeous wear. Fortified with a special deep-sea extract and an antioxidant rice extract, it dries on contact and keeps the delicate eye lid smooth and ready for eyeshadow application.
Ophthalmologist and dermatologist tested. Fragrance free.
My Thoughts:
This is a gel-like primer that does an excellent job of keeping eyeshadow and eyeliner stay put and crease free. It also goes on colorless! I love that it isn’t sticky and is matte. The primer keeps the color of the eyeshadow and eyeliner staying vibrant too. I have to say $24 is quite expensive, but a little goes a long way. I haven’t decided if it’s better than Urban Decay’s Primer Potion or Too Faced Shadow Insurance, but it is another eyeshadow primer you can try if Urban Decay and Too Faced didn’t work for you.

ooo you got this one! i’ve been looking at it in store. i love the simple packaging!
Too Faced works for me, UDPP never did work for me. I really like this Nars one though so I’m glad I have that along with the TFSI.
nars is awesome… of course their eye primer is too.
just one more thing to add to my wishlist
<3
OOh thanks for this, I’m always on the lookout for new primers!!
UDPP works for me and a bit cheaper than NARS. Would love to try a sample of this stuff though
I have seen a couple of videos using it and it looks great. However it`s expensive and I already have the Primer potion so I wouldn`t buy it… The only bad thing about the UDPP is the packaging, it`s cute but you have to cut it.
i agree about the UDPP. cute packaging but at the same time so inconvenient!
Never tried a primer.But on the other hand I rarely use eyeshadows.
Thing is that some of them look sooo good (UDPP look’s like it comes from Aladdin’s fairytale) that I’m really considering starting :p
