Review: Urban Decay Primer Potion

Today I'm reviewing Urban Decay's Primer Potion. It is meant to make eyeshadows last longer, prevent eyeshadow from creasing, and make the pigment stand out stronger. I have to say, it does all three! My eye makeup lasts the whole day, and it never piles up in the crease of my eyes. I use eden. It takes a very small amount of the primer to spread it all over your lids. I like eden because it gives the eyelids a natural color and good coverage.



On the left side of my arm are the shadows applied straight to the skin. On the right are shadows applied over Urban Decays Primer Potion. As you can see the shadows on the right are way more pigmented. Anyways, I love this product, and I give it five stars!!! It does everything it says it does.

Makeup Tutorial: Two Toned Eyes!

When I am in the mood for a fun makeup look I love to play with colors. So I tried out the trendy two toned eyeliner look. Its fun and completely wearable!



I used Urban Decays eyeliner in electric under my eye waterline. It is a stunning blue color. I used Urban Decay eyeshadow in flash on my top lids. These two colors are so vibrant and make a great combination.

Natural Eye Make-up Look!

I'm going on a date tonight, and I want my eye make-up to look natural. So this is my no make-up look! It is simple and easy to do. There are only five steps! I hope it gives you some inspiration.

These are all the products I used: Elf Beauty Encyclopedia in neutral, Urban decay primer potion, eyelash curler, Maybelline eyeliner, and Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion. Everything but the primer potion is a drug store product! I'm on a college budget!

First Step:

I start of every eye make-up look by applying a very small amount of my Urban Decay primer potion all over my lids. This product keeps my make-up from creasing, makes the pigment stronger, and makes it last all night.

Second Step:

Next, I apply this taupe colored eye shadow all over my eyelids. It is very light with only a small amount of shimmer.

Third Step:

Next, I use this light, warm brown and apply it in the creases of my eyes.

Step Four:

A great tip for natural looking eyes is to use a brown eyeliner instead of a harsh black one. I'm using Maybelline unstoppable eyeliner in the color cinnabar. I line my top lid and then I line my waterline very lightly.

 Step Five:

Finally, I go over my top and bottom lashes with my Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion in black/Brown.
