I have oily eye lids and I unless I use some type of primer my eye shadow disappears and or creases. This product was discussed on mineralmakeupmania.com forum. It is Indelible Creme Eye Shadow.

MAC paints or L'oreal HIP make these type of eye shadows. (Cream to powder) I have not tried those. I can't find L'oreal HIP yet in Canada. For MAC I would have to drive to the next city and pay considerably more.

I did buy the Bare Necessity shade from MAD Minerals. It dries to a biegy powder and then I apply minerals over it. Or if in a rush I can just leave it. It comes in a variety of colours. Bare Necessity is matte and any eye shadow can be applied over it. This is the best primer for me. You can use a brush. I scoop some out with a sort of spatula thingee and use my finger to blend. You must blend it right away as it dries fast. Once set it lasts all day.

I was using a Vital Radiance eye primer; a discontinued Revlon product. It could sometimes look dry and cakey.


Other MMU companies also sell these cream shadows. I like buying from MAD. I paid $8.99 (plus I had to order some other goodies) less 20% during a sale. MAD also some other nice MMU.

I have super oily eyelids. I like the Mac paints. after concealer and primer applied to my eyelids, then I apply the Mac paint, and THEN I can apply an eyeshadow. If I don't go through this whole process, my shadow creases and will be 1/2 off before I even get to work.

I don't get to wear makeup much, but I finally got around to buying MAC's paint pot "Painterly". It is a wonderful base - for holding on to eyeshadow AND color wise. HTH!

i have bobbi brown creamy eye shadows...

its easy to apply, and it does have at least some more lasting power than her powder e/s, but

it emphasizes my wrinkles on the eyelid really bad...

whether i use a suede, or one of the shimmering ones, it looks simply bad..

Maybe try another brand. In addition to the one available from MMU suppliers I have heard good results about MAC and L'oreal HIP (if you can find it.)

FROM PREVIOUS POST I am still using this daily and it works well for me.



I wanted to add that MAD currently has a 25% off sale. 25% off on orders over $20.00 including sale items. I believe this ends June 8.

thanks, i will have a look at the MAC eyeshadows...

im quite unexperienced with make up, but it helps me a lot to change my look, as i have very doomed eyelids...

bobbi brown i will drop, as i have them - when applying with a brush - most on my cheeks...

the sisley eyeshadows have a very nice texture, it really looks good on the wrinkles Wink - but they are all shimmering, what is not really perfect for wrinkled eyes, and even more is a little too much for daytime wear...

but will check out MACs ones...
thanks Smile
