I saw a video review for this online and thought I'd give it a shot for a dollar. The best dollar I've ever spent! This lid primer has not failed me yet, after an 8 hour work day my shadow still...

I like this. It doesn't dry my eyes out like other primers I've used (UDPP). I can't say much about the staying power because I've never "partied" in it or anything.. but it lasts all day for me.....

I got this as part of a present from a friend who did a bit of an Elf haul for me! I am super impressed by what this does to my eye makeup. If I don't wear it, I usually have very little eyemakup...

Meh, it wasn't nearly as wonderful as the Urban Decay Primer Potion. It's not terrible though - I'm giving it to my pre-teen cousin.

Another one of my ELF favorites! Keeps my eyeshadow in place all day and doesn't dry my eyelids out (like UDPP did). I like the Mineral Eyeshadow Primer from ELF just a smidge better, but only...

I actually like this primer. For a buck, it’s a great deal. It keeps my eyeshadow looking nice all day. You put it on and it has very sheer coverage, feeling a bit oily at first but then soaking in...

This is a great primer for the money. I tried on one eye, the ELF primer and on the other Urban Decay primer potion, and I didn't see a major difference by the end of the day. I would repurchase...

I find the quality of this primer really good for just a $1. I gotta admit it is a bit greasy but if you blend it out well enough, it works great.

I had to hurry in here and write about this product. I wear a lot of eyelid primers (Ultima 2 crease not, fade not, MAC soft ochre paintpot, The Body Shop primer, etc.) I have never had a problem...

I find the argument that this is identical to the mineral line primer to be untrue. I believe the mineral line primer to far surpass this. This primer works for me but I don't like it as much....

I really like this primer. I don't think it is oily, to me it feels more silky. I actually like the consistency better then my UDPP because the latter is more drying on my lids and I feel like I...

Not bad, at all. Unfortunately I ran out, and hate e.l.f shipping. Anyway, I love/loved this. It was great, not amazing, but great. Kept my eyeshadow on well. It would max out, after 8 or 9 hours,...

This primer is just as good as my UDPP and it's just one dollar! I put this on under all my eyeshadows, and it stays put all day. I am definitely a forever fan of this primer!

This is a fantastic primer for $1. However, I wouldn't go as far as to say it's just as good as, or the same thing as Urban Decay's Primer Potion. The big difference lies in the texture and...
