    I like this primer, it does what it says. I will use this one and my urban decay primer on days I wear eyeshadow. For the price, it really is a good deal

    It doesn't work very well on my eyes, and I get crease lines very very fast. I'm not sure if it is the primer or if my skin is just to oily. Luckily, it was very cheap so I don't feel too bad about it. However, it may also be irritating my eyelids a bit sometimes, which only started happening when I started using it. But again, I don't know if that's the primer or just me..

    This product is very good for the price, but not comparable to any higher end product. I found this product to be too shimmery and left a weird feeling after being applied. If you don't wear eye shadows often and only need a primer for occassions, I would get this. But for an everyday product, I would spend more money elsewhere.

    This product covers well, it is a bit oily but works well, for the price this is a great product. Yes there are better primers out there but you get what you pay for and for the price it works great.

    My backup to Urban Decay's primer, when I don't need coverage for as long of a time period. And $1.00 - how can you go wrong, right? Just let it dry & set for a moment or 2 & it should be fine. And a little goes a long way, as it is easy to apply too much & then not have it work effectively.

    I do feel as though this product is a dupe for the smashbox eyeshadow primer, but not as good as a quality. It goes on with good consistency but after applying my eyeshadow it felt as though i could run my nail across it an it would wipe off, and i was correct. It easily came off, but it could have been because i had used too much or i didnt give it enough time to set, but either way this product is going into the trash for me. I would stick to my urban decay eyeshadow primer potion.

    For the excellent cheap price, this stuff works. It is easy to apply and holds eyeshadow on the lids longer than nothing. Its not the best stuff, but definitely good to have on hand or if you are on a budget.

    I discovered elf last year and I ordered home lots of different products from them, I was completely crazy when I saw the prices and took the opportunity to replenish my stock. The quality of this primer is perhaps not the best but for the price, you should not complain. It does its job, your eye shadow lasts much longer and the pigment becomes stronger. Much prettier with this under your eyeshadow so it is recommended! For one dollar, you should not complain, it does its job and you get a nice eye make-up :)
