I've never applied
primer under the
eye before, but will definitely be giving it a try the next time I apply makeup; thanks
so much for sharing!
Ensure your eyelids are clean and then apply a
primer on them,
so the
eye makeup does not smudge and stays on for longer.
If you aren't using a separate eyelid
primer, then very gently pat the
primer onto your lids
so your
eye makeup will stay on and really pop all day.
I definitely need a
primer under the
eye shadows
so they don't transfer but the colors are beautiful and it really does give a bronzed glow!

eye shadow base, I own the
eye primer by Mac and it doesn't blow me away,
so I found you do get a lot of bang for your buck with these little pots!

eye and foundation
primers, the eyelash
primer prepares the lash to receive the mascara and offers some of the same benefits: even application, longer lasting effect, prevent smudge and clumping and less product absorption on your lashes; it also protects your strands from drying with the constant use of mascara,
so if you use it on a daily basis, applying a first a
primer is the best option to protect your lashes.
I do have to admit that I never wear eyeshadow without applying
eye primer first,
so I wouldn't be able to comment on how well they perform without a
primer.
