    I am normally not a huge fan of ELF products, but I found that this primer(which has been sitting unused in my makeup bag for months) worked great when I used it under matte eyeshadows! I have been...

    I don't really wear a primer when I wear eyeshadow, so I bought this product to wear on it's own. It has kind of a translucent sheen by itself, and evens out the color of your lids, so I use it...

    I received this in a MUA swap, so I wasn't lost a dollar. I usually use my Painterly paint pot, but I wanted to try something underneath that. I figured it would work just as fine as my NARS primer...

    Dirt cheap cost. I have dry skin and my eye lids are no exception. This product is thin, and takes a couple of minutes to dry. I LIKE the fact that it is more on the "oily" side rather than one...

    I was so excited to find a cheap primer, I immediately ordered two of these on the ELF website. The primer, however, is a disappointment. It doesn't last the entire day. It's good until around...

    So I bought this simply because I'm an eye primer addict and this was only $1. How can you pass up $1? I must say that I am a UDPP aficionado, so my standards for eye primer is pretty high. I...

    This is exactly the same thing as the ELF mineral eyeshadow primer and is only a $1. I know its not really that much difference for the money, but I think i'd rather buy this one instead. They...

    I've been using Urban Decay Primer Potion for years and turned my nose up at this product for a long time. After some consideration, what's $1 to try something new out? We all know we've spent way...

    I bought this as a backup to my e.l.f. Studio primer and it's nothing like the Studio version. I couldn't get past the fact that it is so oily. I felt like it was sliding right off my eye lids. ...
