The best eye primer for lasting eye makeup

Have you ever spent half your evening creating the sexiest smokey eyes only to have half the colour melt off before you even make it half way through a night of dancing? It’s a total bummer, but thankfully totally avoidable with eyeshadow primer. Especially in hot or humid climates, an eye primer base is the simplest solution to keep your eyeshadow in place and eyes smoldering all day (or night).

Face primer isn’t the only savvy base coat on the market. Just as its possible to suffer from oily lids, it’s possible for your eye makeup to serve you better. Invest in an eyeshadow primer and you can expect longer-lasting colour and vibrancy that lasts all day. Simply apply a subtle layer and blend it across your lids before applying your favourite eyeshadow as normal.

What does eye primer do?

Eye primer turns your eyelids into the perfect canvas for flawless, long-lasting eyeshadow application by creating a barrier between the natural oils in skin and your makeup. This gives your eyeshadow shades longer, more potent staying power and weather resistance.

How to use eye primer?

Before applying eye primer, allow your morning eye cream to fully absorb. Then, just before putting on eyeshadow, blend a small amount of primer completely into the entire lid.
