Why it's great: "Simply put, my eye shadows do not budge when I use this product," says one reader, and other readers agree. "I put it to the ultimate test on vacation last summer," shares another user. "My shadow didn't budge through hot, humid weather, ocean air, waves, or very long days on the beach."
Other readers say you won't see shadow spillage. "If you have a problem with your shadow creeping around and showing up in places where you don't want it, just try this primer once and you won't be without it," gushes one user. "It definitely stays on until you take it off."

Some brands never heard of. Some good tips.

Have to disagree with the "Maybelline New York Ultra-Liner." The old brush and formula were better, but it works very well, especially for the price.

Good to know, I was hoping to see something that I use :)

I have recently just heard of eye primers. I have always used foundation on my eyelids and it seems to work just fine for me.

I just started wearing eyeshadow primers, and this definitely helps me pick one. I have the oiliest eyelids. My eye makeup is gone is 2 hours. Think I'll try the Urban Decay!

it's a crime not to prime

Primers really help keep my make-up stay on longer than on its own.

I disagree w/the opinion that primers are a waste unless one has oily eyelids. I have extremely dry skin and I have to use a primer for there to be no creases, no crepeyness, & for shadows to have staying power.

I might have to invest in one of these.
