    Not worth the money!

    RosiieApplez (14 reviews)
    I would assume because of the highly pigmented eyeshadows they offer that the primer would work best, but I was totally wrong! Before it was able to dry it was already creasing, sloppy mess! Waste of my money, best bet is to go for Urban Decay Primer Potion :P — 11 months, 3 weeks ago

    Wouldn't wear shadow without it

    BlackFleur145 (37 reviews)
    This product is perfection. I have had it for over a year and no matter what texture eyeshadow I choose it NEVER creases. My best friend loves to wear creamy shadows and it was amazing at the difference this product made. NO creases what so ever. I also use it to cover a pimple before putting on concealer, since it even helps concealer to stay on longer. This multi-purpose product is a must have. Try it again. It's fantasic! — 1 year, 1 month ago

    Bad product from a good company

    robinseggblue (47 reviews)
    With their mastery over eyeshadow pigments you would think they could perfect the primer... not so in this case I am sad to report. Not only was it difficult to apply my shadow (it resulted in an irritated eyelid due to excessive dragging), but the effort was not worth the result. A few hours after application my already oily eyelids had joined forces with this primer for a full on hideous effect. in disgust I purchased Urban Decay's Eyeshadow Primer Potion. — 1 year, 5 months ago

    Not Good

    Ctorace (1 reviews)
    I like MAC products so when I bought this I expected nothing but great results. Well that wasn't the case. I was VERY dissapointed in the product. It left my lids oily and my eye makeup stuck in the creases, worse than if I were to not have any primer at all. — 2 years, 2 months ago

    MAC eye shadow base

    venice (5 reviews)
    I really like this item. I noticed my eye shadows just weren't staying on (not MAC shadows) so I bought this base. It has been great, eye shadows stay on. It is light, doesn't feel heavy at all. — 2 years, 6 months ago

    Mac has some explaining to do!

    Keytra (41 reviews)
    Ok so I dropped in to my Mac counter, I was so excited to buy this as I know Mac makes fantastic eye-shadows and eyeliners. When the lady asked me for 25 dollars I was ecstatic. The price was to die for but when I used it I felt ripped-off. My eye lids are very oily and this made it worst. It did not hold my eyeshadow, instead it caked it faster. I only tried using it twice and decided enough of this, I didn't want to throw the tub away so I kept it as a concealer... ha I had to use it for something — 2 years, 6 months ago

    Mary Kay has the best eye primer on the market

    Shaysh (2 reviews)
    I love MAC but I had the same problem... the eye primer didn't do the job. Mary Kay eye primer does the job and has my business. No messy creases. Try it for yourself. — 3 years, 1 month ago
