Let's talk about eyeshadow primers!

A lot of girls that are beginners when it comes using makeup forget to apply primer before applying the eyeshadow. The effect the primers gives you is that it prevents the eyeshadow from creasing. The primers helps your makeup stay all day/night long and it even helps the eyeshadow colors to pop a little bit more depends what kind of primer you use. For an example if you are using like warm or calm colors such as gold, brown, red, orange, soft pink etc. it is good to use a flesh toned primer like the MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in the color Painterly. This primer is deffintly my absolute favorite primer of all time. This sucker help my eyeshadow pop and stay againt the mediterian weather during the hot summer time. I also like the drugstore version of it and it is from Essence and Lorac Behind the scenes eye primer. If you only want to use a primer with a little bit of sparkle then you can use the CK (Calvin Klein) sheer créme eyeshadow in the color snakeskin silver. This is a great product to use to get that natural but yet a little glow on your lids. Works perfectly now during the autumn when you apply soft eyes and a dark bold lips. The best combo ever.
But what do  you do if you want to play with darker and bolder colors? Well you can still use the MAC Paint Pot but when you work with harder and bolder colors it is good to use primers in that color you want to apply as a eyeshadow. For an example you want to rock that black eyeshadow for a party. For a base you can use the Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in the color Black Ink. It is such a great primer for that black eyeshadow you want to use BUT HEADS UP you really have to blend that primer fast because this primer is no joke. It stays there like a rock. And another tip is that if you want to do a black eyeshadow do not forget to blend it well and use a transition color above to give that smokey eye affect. Same thing is for using darker colors like pruple, green etc. You can use eye pencils like primers and I really do recommend the Make Up Store eye pencils. They are soft, good products and they are affordable. A dupe for this is the NYX Jumbo pencils.
