I just thought I'd let everyone know. Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer is incredible. I'd never even heard of a primer until 2 weeks ago. I was at Sephora, asked one of the reps how to make sure the red cream pot I was about to buy would not crease. She showed me the primer. It was an impulse buy.....
I performed at 3 shows last night and my eye make-up didn't budge--10+ hours of wear-and-tear! No wiping under my eyes during the night to get rid of dark creases from melting make-up. It was awesome.
I do have a question: Does anyone know how to blend eyeshadow colors with the primer? I had a really difficult time blending them.

Sun, September 28, 2008 - 5:32 PMYou shouldn't be blending the primer with your eyeshadows. The primer is a base, and goes on first over your entire eyelid, and usaully on your lower lid as well. It should dry to a matte finish, nearly translucent. THEN you put your shadows on top of it. -

Sun, September 28, 2008 - 8:02 PMOops, let me rephrase: I had trouble blending my eyeshadows when I used the primer as a base.

Sun, September 28, 2008 - 5:59 PMI use the urban decay primer, I put it on first really just a dab and work it all over the eye. I haven't had a issue with them not being able to blend, maybe there was too much product. I love love my Urban Decay primer but I also use MAC paint in Bare Cavas over the Primer for even longer lasting wear. -

Sun, September 28, 2008 - 6:13 PMI LOVE my primer potion!!!!
I have found that a light dusting of translucent powder, or mineral makeup helps me to have a better blendability with my eyeshadows.
I use loose mineral eyeshadows, and yah... they stick like CRAZY to it, and dont wanna budge =)
I still have no creases and it sticks like crazy! =) -

Sun, September 28, 2008 - 8:06 PMthis truly is a great *must have* in a girls makeup arsenal (spelling?) My shadow never budges and always looks fresh...even in not so great weather conditions ie-rain. I even put it on before liner too.

Re: This product is AMAZING
Thu, October 2, 2008 - 1:36 PMIt is truly a gift of the make-up gods - I LOVE Urban Decay primer (and their shadows too!). One problem - it can work TOO well. I made boo boo one time and I had the hardest time trying to fix it because nothing, and I mean NOTHING, would allow me to wipe away oh-so-carefully just the bit of shadow that I had put on the wrong spot. I had to start over completely by washing my entire eye and start from scratch. Fortunately, I was not getting ready for a show but rather was just playing around, trying to get to know my new primer product. -

Thu, October 2, 2008 - 2:33 PMDid you try putting a little eye makeup remover on a Q-tip & wiping just that area? -
