A few months ago, I told you how WnW caused excessive dryness to my lids and urban decay's anti-aging primer left a brownish tint after it dried down. I even tried Tarina Tarintino's Dollskin primer after finding it at Marshalls for $3. It was a total fail. I'm proud to say that I've discovered the primer that my super oily lids have been waiting for their whole lives. It's not cheap at 22 bucks but it's the most effective formula I've come across. No creasing or oiliness for me after wearing it for more than 12 hours. Check out MAC's Prep and Prime 24 hour extend eye base. I'm telling you, you'll thank me later.ebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10572709171539732520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-8293977854277469252015-06-09T20:41:01.549-07:002015-06-09T20:41:01.549-07:00Bought & tried WnW eye primer based on your re...Bought & tried WnW eye primer based on your review...love it & my shadow stays put all day!

It's a lot more emollient to me and I've had no adverse effects. The thing is, if I don't blend it with a brush it leaves color on the lid when I prefer that there is none. I had planned to use up the tube and move on to NARS primer but after reading the review here I'm not sure that that's the right choice either.ebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10572709171539732520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-63970982844868647272015-05-26T06:22:03.288-07:002015-05-26T06:22:03.288-07:00I got my last tube at CVS, but only the bigger sto...I got my last tube at CVS, but only the bigger store near me had it, not the smaller one. I've also seen it at Walgreens. You can get it from drugstore.com or Amazon, but then you might have to pay a couple more bucks for shipping. Still cheaper than Nars, though!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02075243940219740263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-29059549653300896562015-05-26T06:19:59.867-07:002015-05-26T06:19:59.867-07:00Wow, that sounds awful.

My lids are pretty oily and it didn't come close to lasting through the day like my beloved Too Faced primer does. Not to mention you get quite a bit less product compared to other primers. Where do you get the Wet N Wild primer from? I've been curious about trying it but haven't seen it stocked it my local drugstores.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
