Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Original

A very small, pea-sized amount is generally sufficient for both eyelids. Using too much can lead to creasing or a sticky feeling.

Yes, it works well with cream eyeshadows to enhance their longevity and prevent creasing. Apply a thin layer and allow it to set before applying your cream shadow.

No, the Original formula is translucent once blended. It does not add any color to your eyelid, making it suitable for all skin tones. Other variants, like 'Eden' or 'Sin', do offer a slight tint.

While the primer significantly helps with eyeshadow longevity and resistance to smudging from minor moisture, it does not make your eyeshadow fully waterproof. For waterproof results, pair it with waterproof eyeshadows or liners.

Due to the small amount needed per application, a single tube can last several months with daily use, often 3-6 months or even longer, depending on frequency of use.

Yes, a tiny amount can be carefully applied to the lower lash line before applying eyeliner or eyeshadow to help with longevity and prevent smudging, but be very sparing to avoid irritation.

Ensure you are applying a very thin, even layer of primer. Too much product can also cause creasing. Allow adequate time (30-60 seconds) for the primer to set before applying eyeshadow. For very oily lids, try patting a translucent powder over the primer before eyeshadow.

You might be using too much product. Try reducing the amount to a tiny dot for both eyes. Also, ensure your eyelids are clean and dry before application. If the product itself seems thick, ensure the cap has been sealed tightly after each use to prevent drying out.

Make sure the primer is applied evenly across the entire eyelid where eyeshadow will be placed. Ensure it has fully set before applying eyeshadow. If using a particularly sheer eyeshadow, the primer can help, but some pigments naturally have less intensity.
