Perfection in a tube

For years I used UD eyeshadow primer and I still like it but I like the texture of this one so much more. The UD has more of a slick texture this one dries and my eyeshadow never creases, some shadows crease with my UD and this holds my eyeliner in place better than UD.

Makes shadow stay all day

Apply this primer before your eyeshadow, and it will stay all day without creasing or fading! Just make sure you apply a thin layer (using too much causes everything to crease). I know UDPP is extremely popular and people swear by it, but this primer is a much better choice just because of the packaging. Both products perform the same, but TFSI doesn't need to be cut in half to get all the product out.

Second pick

This is my second favorite primer, behind urban decay. It's pretty good. But since they're similar price points I would go with the UD.

Very good primer

My stylist recommended this to me, and boy what a great recommendation. This stuff keeps my shadow looking fresh all day long! It does not crease or fade. And because my shadow always looks fresh, I don't look as tired after working all day!

Great Primer

I really like this primer, it's long lasting and thick but I don't like the way it smells. For that reason alone it is not my favorite.

A must have!

I have very oily skin and eyelids and before using this primer my eye makeup would never last past lunch. Using this primer My eye make up lasts all day long and does not crease at all. It even makes the colors appear more pigmented. I had a dark gray shadow that I used to not use much because it didn't blend well, but on top of this primer it does blend. I think it is definately worth the $18 it cost. I even use it below my eyes to hold my concealer in place.

I have recently started using eye primers, this is the 3rd to 4th I've tried.

I'm new to eye primers, I've used a couple of drugstore brands and a couple of, what I call higher end brands, and they are quite different. I started using some of the too faced products about a year ago. I have extremely dry skin and very sensitive eyes do to a central nervous system disorder, I'm always afraid to spend a lot on makeup, only for it to end up in a drawer because my skin. My hu...read moresband bought me this one, after my daughter bought me the too faced semi chocolate for Christmas last year. I really liked it but, when I used this primer with it, I couldn't believe the difference!!! After the primer, the eyeshadow went on so much easier and stayed all day, even with my eyes watery!!! It does make the eyeshadow a little harder to come of but, that keeps me from smudging during the day. Also, it takes very little, I couldn't believe how small amount it took for both eyes. It maybe a little costly in the beginning but, in the long run you will have saved! The only thing I wish too faced would do, is offer smaller amounts of their foundation and other products, as to were we didn't have to spend quite a lot and not be able to use it. The closest store for me is about an hour and a half, so I order online, im afraid to buy the full size and not be able to use it. I know you can get samples in the stores but, I can't get to the stores very offen, about 3times a year. It would be helpful to be able to buy smaller amounts so if it didn't work. But, this primer I was very lucky, it works great!!!

I love this product!!

Whenever I use this, there's no creasing with my eyeshadow and doesn't fade for hours! Unfortunately, it doesn't really cover up the purple-ish areas on my eyes because it's sheer so I do put some concealer on before using this. The packaging is also so cute, but that's not unusual with Too Faced. Overall, really good but if you're looking for something to create a sort of blank canvas on your eyelids, this isn't amazing.

Too Faced Eye Shadow Primer

My eyelids get so oily that when I would wear eyeshadow powder, by the afternoon people were asking me what cream eyeshadow was I wearing...lol! Now that's oily. My co-worker introduced me to this product, now people are asking me for instructions on how to apply eyeshadow powder....lol This stuff works like magic. I never run out...never! It's worth every penny.
