Shadow Insurance

By Ana Maria 9 years ago.

I have oily lids and eyeshadows start to separate easily on my lids. The Too Faced Shadow Insurance primer makes the eyeshadows look great all day and the eye liners not smudge on my hooded eyes. I don't see any effects in terms of evening out the skintone or smoothing fine lines. 12 months (recommended usage time after opening) is not enough to finish it, even if you are like me and use only one eye primer everyday. But I noticed that after 8-9 months the product starts to separate. Being a squeeze tube is more hygienic in my opinion than doe-foot primer applicators, but it's sometimes easy to squeeze more product then you need. Bottom line, this is a very good eye primer, you get a lot of usages for you money and I can see the hype around it.

I got a full sized tube of Shadow Insurance with the Too Faced Enchanted Glamourland palette quite a few years ago now. Until then, I'd always used either MAC Painterly or UD Primer Potion (the original and then I started adding the tinted ones). I was more than happy with the primers I had but since I got this for free, I figured I would give it a try and, in the process, I found yet another excellent eye shadow primer. TFSI spreads beautifully and the tiniest dot is all you need for all day lasting power and it dries and sets quickly so you don't have to wait to apply your eye makeup. There is no tugging or dryness. Every now and then, if I haven't used it for a while, the product does seem to separate but rolling the tube around a bit and sort of "massaging" the product inside seems to take care of that. I would not hesitate to purchase this again.
