QOTW: What’s Your Favourite Eyeshadow Base?

What’s your favourite eyeshadow base?

Beautiful with brains says: Too Faced Shadow Insurance. It makes my eyeshadows stay put all day, improves their color payoff and I really love how lightweight its texture is. It feels like you have nothing on, and yet it works so well!

Any kind of cream eyeshadows.

Vonvon, they never seem to work well for me, but I’m glad they do for you. :)

Ana, I love that one too, although I’m not too fond of the jar packaging.

I must say I’m not too fond of it either.

My mom didn’t close it tightly enough (she’s got rheumatism, and all makeup is relatively tiny), so it dried.

I use cream shadows as well. But for primer, I use the Etude House one :D

Vonnie, it’s a wonderful primer, isn’t it? And I love that it comes in a tube. :)

Nars, then Too Faced, Artdeco and last Urban Decay!
But Nars is by far the best choice for me!

Steffi, I’ll have to try the Nars one then! I tried all the others and they all worked well for me but I prefer TFSI because of the lightweight texture and packaging.

TFSI as well :) Too bad there isn’t a Sephora here — I’ll have to order online again when I run out, unless I find another great primer!

Eight, it’s an awesome primer, isn’t it? I hope you’ll be able to get it easily when it runs out. :)

I have never tried TFSI, but I am liking Inuovi eye base and Urban Decay, eyeshadow stay put the entire day despite our humid weather and my oily lids!

Xin, I’m glad you’ve found something that works so well for you. I think UD may work better in your climate than TFSI though.

Mine is the Urban Decay Primer Potion, TFSI doesn’t work down here! :(

Nikki, what a shame TFSI doesn’t work for you. But UDPP is a wonderful primer too.
