    I've always had a hard time understanding people using this product as an eye shadow primer. I was under the impression that MAC Paints were simply another type of eye shadow, but it seems like...

    I've used Bare Canvas in the past as an eyeshadow base, and never really liked it as much as UD Primer Potion (my HG), but I didn't think it was a whole lot different. I was running out of my PP,...

    I have not been using this produst for a terribly long time, but so far I cannot speak highly enough of it! My eyelids produce a lot of moisture and I have ALWAYS had trouble getting my eyeshadow...

    I LOVE this stuff. I'm probably on my 4th or 5th tube. It is the only thing I've found that works as a true eyeshadow base and does not crease. It also looks fantastic by itself (and again, no...

    I bought this to use as a base on my eye lids before I applied shadow. I was hoping it would even out the redness on my lid so the shadow's true color would show up. It didnt work out so well. ...

    EDIT: I did a test to make sure that this product was good enough not to return to the store, so i put HiP pigments with no base on one eye and the other one with base. The results were really...

    I use Bare Canvas paint as an eyeshadow base every day. I can't believe I ever used eyeshadow without it! First of all, when I put it on after putting all of my face products on, it looks so nice...

    This is for me the most versatile cream eyeshadow ever. The secret is in the application- use it sparingly. I used to use it with a brush, and wasn't so crazy about it. I have since found finger...

    I keep going back to this product to try it again and it just doesn't work out for me. I always have to use this with a cream base over it. Used alone, my shadows come out looking chalk-y. The...

    I am a known MU junkie. I have tried it all, UDPP, Lumene E/S Base, L'Oreal DeCrease, but this, this made little angels sing to me! It is a beautiful flesh-toned, creamy, smooth, concoction. I...

    I love this!!!! It makes a great e/s base, has a gorgeous neutral color, you only need a little to have maximum effect, and a little goes along way!!!

    Sorry to be a buzz kill, but I was very disappointed in this product. Let me note for the record that I bought this to use as an eye shadow base only and not to wear it alone. Not one rave. Rants,...

    I also use this as a primer for shadow, and it works wonderfully! In the past 2 years or so, I've bought this about 3 times. It brings out the notes in shadow that are meant to be seen and holds...

    Bare canvas is my #1 staple. I wear it every day under my eyeshadow. It does not really add color to my lids but very slightly lightens them (NC25 for reference), and "blanks" them out with an...

    This stuff could make eyeshadow stick to a greased griddle. I layer it over UDPP; it's more opaque, and it lets you blend shadows much more easily. Unfortunately, the packaging is as bad as they...

    This is a great product for bringing out the colour of your eye shadows, and keeping powder eye shadows in place (esp for those people with oily lids). I agree that Urban Decay Primer Potion is a...
