Emma, how does the prep & prime work for you as a lip primer? I’m looking for a good lip primer to show off all my new MAC lipsticks!

Because I have oily lids, an eye primer is an absolute MUST!
I use face and lip primers occasionally…not on a daily basis.

UDPP is not sold where I live. Would definitely love to give that a go!

I definitely think eyeshadow primers are necessary. I did a look the other day and forgot a base and it got oily and faded really fast.

I can do without face primers. I have tried them but they don’t make a difference for me, for my skin is oily.
I like to put lip balm under my lipsticks and glosses just for the extra moisture. I can do without eyelash primers also.

I haven’t tried UDPP.. but I use MAC’s Painterly Paint Pot and it works BEAUTIFULLY! I love it.
I used to use Prep + Prime Face, but I ran out and am not currently using a face primer. I use Studio Fix Fluid foundation, and Prep + Prime helped with blending sooooo much, and now without a primer it’s much harder to blend even with a brush.

face primer definitely. i wear that, then concealor and a v. light dusting of powder and that’s the face done. eclat minute by clarins is one of those products i wear and jump a mile back when i see my face in the mirror, like ”whoa nelly, who’s that fresh faced chick?” hahaha! i seriously love it.
too lazy to get into eyeshadow basis on a daily basis but will try my elizabeth arden eye fix primer soon. (have had it for ages, a freebie i forgot all about).
