e.l.f Eyelid Primer Review

I think this primer is a really good, affordable option if you are on a tight makeup budget. It's only a few dollars and you can get it from quite a few places online and also instore at Kmart.

This is really easy to use, you simply swipe a small amount (definitely go with a small amount, too much and it will crease) on your eyelids and then I rub it in using my fingers. I then like to let it dry for a couple of minutes before I put shadow on top.

For a while this was my fave primer and I loved using it to get creaseless eyeshadow looks and to help colours be a bit brighter. Then summer came along and my eyelids started getting super oily and gross and this just didn't cut it for me anymore and my eyeshadows were creasing after only a couple of hours. I started using the urban decay primer potion and that is magic for my eyelids so I can't see myself using this product again.

I would still recommend it to others though, if you don't like it then you haven't wasted a large amount of money and if you do like it, then that is great. It does also come in a few other colours so that is handy when you want to do different kinds of eye looks. The tube has a really good amount of product in (I'd been using mine for months and still had heaps left).

I have combo skin and even setting the eyelid with a powder, I still found that my eye shadow would slip off and become muddy. I tried everything but cit just wasn't tacky enough for me

I bought this item from the states so it only cost 1.00 or $3.00, I can't remember but I am super glad I didn't buy it for 10.00 as I would have been extremely disappointed.

I'm not a huge eyelid primer person as I don't get oily lids and products seem to go on my lids fine without it, maybe thats why I didn't think too much of this product..

I find this to be a very basic product. I notice no difference in my eyeshadow pigment when I am wearing it. I also don't notice any difference with it increasing the longevity of my eyeshadows.

I own the Urban Decay primer and that one is amazing and brings out the shadow pigments. The ELF primer personally does nothing for me.

Oh and it's also cheaply made my lid broke the first day I got it.

This primer I think does not really work for me. My skin can sometimes be dry and can sometimes be a but oily. If I use this on my eyelids it really feels like I'm putting a bit of light cream on my eye. I found that my shadows still crease and after a few hours literally looks like there's no primer at all. This is a nice cheap product to try but I would properly recommend something a bit better quality or the nyx jumbo eye pencil- they are cheap and really good bases.

I was disappointed with this product, after reading such great reviews about this eye primer. I found that it was too sticky, and quite thick. It didn't make my eyeshadow go on any easier, or make it last longer - if anything, it didn't last as long as it does without this eyelid primer.

I don't know why but this product just didn't work for me at all...for my daughter it works perfectly! It just rolls off the skin of my lid and doesn't stick to it. My eyelids are a wee bit oily but not so much that it should not stay! I find the product quite powdery and thin. It doesn't make any difference to the pigment of my eye shadow either and actually makes my shadow crepe. I am unlikely to purchase this product again.

I found this product to be pretty average, but for the price I really shouldn't complain, I think I picked it up for like $2 off iHerb or something.

I found the formula to be quite thin so it wasn't really tacky enough. I believe it comes in few different colors, but I don't think that would make any difference.

I didn't feel like this made any of my eyeshadows "pop" and definitely didn't help with the staying power.

While I have read so many great reviews for this product (both on here and elsewhere) when I tried it for myself, it just didn't work. I don't usually have sensitive skin but it irritated my eyelids so bad that they started developing raw, itchy and flaky skin which lasted for a month. I couldn't wear eyeshadow and had to get a topical cream from the chemist to try fix the mess - all in all, while this product may work for some it just caused more problems for me.

This is a cheap eyelid primer, so you're getting what you paid for. It does basically do what it's supposed to, but I find that, for me, it doesn't absorb as well as other primers so if I'm not careful it can be visible.

I cant say that I've noticed less creasing from my eyeshadows. so I'm not totally impressed with this primer. Wasn't really expecting much from it because of the price, but I do admit that I use it from time to time when I cant find my other preferred primer and am in too much of a rush to find it.
