    I've heard the Urban Decay one is very good too. I've used Benefit's 'Stay Don't Stray' primer and found it realy good.

  • Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion all the way for me! I have this in Sin which is kind of a champagne colour with a bit of shimmer in it and works nicely as an eyeshadow on its own as well.

  • Urban Decay Primer Potion or Too Faced Shadow Insurance both work as well as each other, would recommend either of those x

    the MAC primer is really good. Im currently using the Benefit one, which is also very good! However, they are all fairly expensive. E. L. F. do one (only £1.50), but i have never tried any of their products, and dont know if its any good.
  • As others have said Urban Decay is very good, but not cheap.
    I am sure i have read on here in the past that some people successfully use milk of magnesia, which is very moneysaving (please tell me i didn't imagine reading that :o0

    just tell us where it is and we'll find it....

    It was probably me:D When my skin is greasy I use MOM as a primer all over, including the eyes and nothing moves unti I take it all off;)I'm not a mad woman:rotfl:, most primers are based on this anyway and there is nothing in it that could irritate the skin but I do find with polonged use it can dry the skin a bit too much and of course its super :money::D
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    i use the No7 (bought with £5 voucher and paid £2.50). works good enough for me even on my drugstore shadows eg bourjois, sleek, loreal. or i make my own, a mixture of liquid concealer with some eyecream (i use the repairwear eyecreams i get from clinique bonus time !!!!) mix in equal quantities and voila -works really good. (mentioned better in a previous post of mines
