I think the outcome would only base whether the product is trash, or if it works for you skin chemistry(like your oils, and how ur body reacts to the ingredients? Like it would vary, and no definite result?
@@ciiciirodriguez9259 well i love the fenty one. A little goes a long way. I have used the too faced primer insurance, not a big fan. It made my lids more oily. A sephora employee tried to get me to buy it since the fenty one was sold out. And i told her my lids were oily and she was like me too and it works. I was like nahhh lol
It happens with me too. The concealer crease even if i set it with powder as i have extremely oily eyelids. Also primer or concealer, my eyeshadow cannot last for 10 hours so can’t comment much on longevity of primer on oily eyelids.
Yeah! I find only eye shadow primer helps and only then my eye shadow doesn't crease at all. So for oily girls, an eyeshadow primer is a must and concealer does not at all work as a lid primer for oily lids.
I agree. Especially during summer. I might be able to get away with just primer in the colder weather, maybe. But I feel like the colors just look better and last longer with primer. For me anyway.
I have oily skin and couldn't afford to replace my primer when it ran out so just used concealer and I COUDN'T BELIEVE that it lasted. Some hot days/longer makeup days might struggle but for day to day it's perfectly fine for me 😍🙏🏼
Wow, I definitely needed this video. I use concealer as a primer but I’ve always wondered if actual primer is better. I just got the fenty eyeshadow primer and haven’t used it yet
Omg! I LOVE that primer. A little goes a long way btw. But the shadows stay on great. It stays tacky for a long time before you put shadows. Well it also depends how much you apply.
Well I have oily skin and I prime with my concealer and then set it a bit with powder and my eyeshadow doesnt smudge at all.. Well maybe after like ten hours it fades a little bit but thats normal. I wouldnt waste my money on eyeshadow primers.. I would prefer to just buy a better concealer
@@perpetual.learner Σίγουρα λατρεύω το Pro Filt'r Concealer της Fenty Beauty αλλά σε οικονομικό έχω βρει πως δουλεύει καλά για κανα εφτάωρο και το Conceal and Define Concealer της Revolution
Mikala Ann I’m oillllly as hell and I use concealer as my eyeshadow base. They work the exact same on me so I don’t see any reason to buy an extra product. I do have to set my eyelids with powder no matter what I use.
I'm glad you put in the oily eyelids point at the end because I was thinking that the whole time. Personally with oily eyelids I need an eyeshadow primer
lol I always say juitzy now, even in normal conversations. I bet people think I'm crazy too. I've also started using "delitcious" to describe random things. lol
I say juitzy all the time now in conversations regarding absolutely anything! About Food, Boys, makeup litterlaly anything. I also use the word more often because it gives me a laugh that I have completely replaced juicy with Juitzy. Also love it when other girls get it haha
i think it depends no if you have oily eyelids or not, i personally dont have oily skin or eyelids and i have hooded eyes as well but i just use my concealer as primer and I've never had an issue with it transfering on me
I have to agree with many others here, I also have oily eyelids and concealer just doesnt work for me, I always need eyeshadow primer and my favorite one is the MAC 24hr extend eye primer and the paint pot in soft ochre :) ♥
With my oily eyelids, I HAVE to use eyeshadow primer before I apply eyeshadow. The only time I don't use eyeshadow primer is if I don't do my eyeshadow and just throw bronzer in the crease.
In my opinion, this is a matter of skin oiliness. I have generally dry skin and I never used to use eyeshadow primer, only concealer. But in the humidity this summer my skin was more oily and I found that my eyeshadow was creasing and fading very quickly. I switched to the Milani eyeshadow primer and my eyeshadow now stays in place and stays vibrant.
I have oily skin overall. I used to use Urban Decay eye shadow primer until they stopped making it in a squeeze tube (not good, IMO). I am now a slave to the Mac Paint Pot in Soft Ochre which is technically a cream shadow but let's be real, it's a damn eye primer. I love it. Concealers definitely crease on my lids. Great vid, Kathleen!
⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ *UNDER-EYE PRIMER* *Smashbox’s Photo Finish UNDER-EYE HYDRATING Primer!* ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ It makes a huge difference for my concealer. It brightens dark circles, de-puffs, smoothes, hydrates, less creasing and gives way more longevity to concealer, etc. It’s amazing and I never go without even if I’m not wearing makeup.
My lids are O I L Y and I always use just concealer under my eye shadow. I just apply whatever concealer I'm using on my face to my lids and then set it with a little bit of powder to avoid creasing. I use the same technique on clients as well and both them and me love the result. Gives me a smooth and even surface to apply eye shadow on and makes it last longer. In my personal opinion eye shadow primer is unnecessary.
As someone that does very bright eyeshadow looks and uses a lot of pressed pigments I think eyeshadow primer is necessary. But if you're a simple gal that only does neutral looks concealer works just as great. Not sure about the difference with oily skin though because I also have dry skin! Personally, the plouise base is my favorite because of how well you can blend shadows on it and it is very full coverage.
I use my Mac paint pot too and after a while I crease, but I might just be super oily idk :( still using it till I finish it... and idk anything better to use lol
This used to be true for me too. I have oily skin and I needed primer too. Mac paint pot wouldn't hold up on me either :( But idk if its because I'm older now or all these years of makeup ruining my skin.... I don't need primer any more. I'm shook. My lids just don't produce oil like that anymore :(
Well I have oily skin and I prime with my concealer and then set it a bit with powder and my eyeshadow doesnt smudge at all.. Well maybe after like ten hours it fades a little bit but thats normal. I wouldnt waste my money on eyeshadow primers.. I would prefer to just buy a better concealer The MAC paint pot when I use it it gets oily after like two hours.. I dont use it much anymore it doesnt work for me..
ELF is my favorite, too. I keep trying other brands (high end, drugstore, everything in between) and I always come back to my elf eye primer. I just wish there was more product in each tube.
Becky Barnes : i also am a dehydrated skin type but oily, hooded lids and if you need the longest wear you should try the Smashbox 24 hr primer. It never fails and my cousin was laughing at how much eyeshadow stayed when we went swimming cuz i dnt put my face in the water but of course your face gets wet
My ride or die is UDPP too. I have tried nars eye base n Mac paint pot but they don't work as well.. eyeshadow still crease on me if I used them instead of UDPP
watevalicious For the paint pot it has to be warmed up with your fingers first I find. I’m not crazy about it as a primer but I use it as a base before concealer to cover up a breakout before concealer!
Honestly love this! 1) This is actually educational 2) I love seeing reviews of new stuff but I obviously can’t buy everything lol so this feels more relevant 😂 It definitely needs to be a series! Different combos of eyeshadow primer and concealer and then one with NO primer! And then face primers as well! Like silicone vs hydrating
Please please PLEASE do this again! Loved this video. Do it with more concealer/primer combos and also other products! Love wear test and comparison videos
PLEASE PLEASE make this a series!! I'm on a pretty unforgiving budget (as I'm sure a lot of people are), and it'd be so awesome to actually see whether all these extra products like primer, setting spray, etc. actually matter.
I agree with all the other oily eyelid folks!! I NEED primer. Concealer creases on me and my Smashbox Eyeshadow Primer is my ride or die!!! But does the P. Louise work well for oily lids??
You have dry skin though. I have oily eyelids. I have tried concealer as primer and it always creases. Primer is essential for me! Urban Decay eye primer potion is my fave but I also like Morphe and Milani.
As a pretty oily face, I can tell you that I use the camouflage concealer from catrice and it actually works really well, usually doesn't crease, unless we're talking about a full night of partying where it's impossible not to dance and sweat a lot. So for everyday use, it's perfect.
I use concealer as a primer as my eyelids are very pigmented, saying that, I do love the smash box eyeshadow primer on days when I use eyeshadow as it controls the oils on my eyelids, and it works for me
I have super oily lids and I like using concealer as a primer but it does not last very long for me. If I want to wear a look all day I have to use a Mac paint pot or a similar consistency primer. Love you Kathleen!!!!
YES TO ALL. Please please do make this a series, and do do try the p louise base in one of them. This video is totally not a fluke cuz I've ALWAYS wondered about this question myself! Thank you for addressing it.
Andrea Renee, I have the NYX eyeshadow primer and I feel like it’s actually too tacky and makes my powder shadows clumpy almost. But it really helps my Cream shadows stick.
I agree, the concealer side has a bit more color on the outer edge and in the crease. I've always been a concealer type for eyelid. But I've also used the UD primer potion, and it worked great as well. I think it's truly what you're into 🌷🌷
I’ve been using concealer as my eye shadow primer for a while. The last eye shadow primer I used worked just as well as concealer. I have oily lids and my eyeshadow still creases on hot summer days. I haven’t tried the NARS primer. If it’s meant to absorb oils, it’s worth a shot. Thanks for sharing! 💕
Yes Kathleen!! I have oily eyelids and absolutely have to use an eyeshadow primer. It makes my eyeshadow stay vibrant all day! I use Urban Decay Eyeshadow primer potion in the shade Eden btw😊.
I'm 37 and have wrinkly and slightly oily lids. I have to use a thin, usually transparent primer for any eyeshadow look. If I use concealer, it is just too thick and it actually will emphasize the wrinkles on my lids. One that works pretty decent for me and which was only like $2.99 is the Jessie's Girl Eyeshadow Primer. It has a little color but not as much as a concealer and it's thin and spreadable but keeps my shadows in place without creasing. Worth a try for older gals!
@@adriennedeschamps1 E.L.F. has an amazing eyeshadow primer! It's extremely affordable, as well. You can find it online, and depending where you're from, the cost ranges from $1-$4 😊 I find that with oily lids (because same lol), it's best to use a primer(whatever kind) and then set it with some powder.
I have oily eyelids so it’s an absolute must for me to use a primer. The primer I use is the Smashbox 24 hour eye primer. This primer can last me 14+ hours and my eye makeup looks flawless! I’ve used almost every eye primer on the market and I always go back to the Smashbox primer.
Kathleen! I find that eyeshadow primers only really make a difference with me when using bright colors! you should try that! I only use primer when doing a bold colorful look!❤️
Me haha i used to never leave my house w out makeup when i was younger tho! I still absolutely live makeup but since gaining a litbof weight and being so depressed i just dont take care of myself anymore or care what i look like unfortunately. It sucks. I miss the old me :( watching make-up videos is what makes me happy tho even if it's just for a short while!
@@jenniferwalker5096 omg same ugh I just bought more makeup today cuz my bday was the 24th and the sale at Ulta got me! I was like I'm buying this for a bday present to myself since no one got me anything and I plan on starting to wear makeup again. But I've said that a million times already and I haven't started wearing it again yet!
Could you maybe get one of your friend's who has very oily eyelids and do the same test on her/him? I think that would be really neat. Getting two different skin types together and see what works good for both types. That might be a lot of work, but it would good insight I think. I'm a dry lady, so all I use is concealer. But Kathleen, I think you're on to something here! This seems like what would be a great TH-cam series for your channel. Don't sell yourself short saying this will flop!! And you brought conversation up and ladies are helping other ladies with products. This is great! Good video! Florida folks, stay safe from an Oklahoma gal!
I love your videos! Maybe a series called “Will It Prime?” where you simply try different concealers as eyeshadow primers. You could do three in one video, but each filmed on a different day so you get a full wear test out of each one. You could do a max of 5 minutes of filming for each day/concealer and compile them. Application, check in, and end of day result (for each day you just film these three moments). Idk if I’m making sense, or how difficult this would be but GOD I’d watch the hell out of that.
I have oily eyelids and I just use concealer! 🤷🏽♀️ eyeshadow stays put all day with no creasing, but I do set with powder- not setting does not work for me
Great video. I am extremely oily and for many years I have used concealer as a primer. Mainly because I have slightly darker eye lids and it evens out the color. It works great as a primer.
Loved this vid!! But i swear by the MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot as my base! Please please please do a vid comparing that one!!! Also, i haven't found the right concealer! I need one that doesn't crease under my eyes!!! What is the best best best one you all recommend?? Ik Kathleen has said so many but i can't keep track and i just need to know 1 BEST Concealer people swear by that doesn't crease under the eyes. Sending love from Australia!!
Hi Kathleen! I really like you write down every brush you used in this video! Is that possible keep doing that for every video? Because I am try to learn more about how to use different brushes, and that gonna be really helpful! Thank you xxx
Should I test this again?! But with a different concealer / primer lmao? Maybe I’ll do it off camera and update you guys!
KathleenLights Yes!!! 👏🏻👏🏻
KathleenLights you should do primer or concealer vs. no base!
Base vs. no base
KathleenLights I think it does make a difference, at least for me lol 😝 😘🥰😊
yes please do!!!
Make this a series! Do setting sprays really matter? Face primers?
Ooh yes I’d love to know if setting sprays really matter!!
Do a face primer video with Kristi 😂😂😂😂😍😍😍😍😍
I agree. I have always wondered this. Interesting info Kathleen
I think the outcome would only base whether the product is trash, or if it works for you skin chemistry(like your oils, and how ur body reacts to the ingredients? Like it would vary, and no definite result?

I think for us with oily lids it is necessary to use primer.
Cesi 929 agreed what are your favs I’m looking for new ones but I don’t want to waste money
Omg yes! Without primer my eye makeup transfers instantly.
@@ciiciirodriguez9259 well i love the fenty one. A little goes a long way. I have used the too faced primer insurance, not a big fan. It made my lids more oily. A sephora employee tried to get me to buy it since the fenty one was sold out. And i told her my lids were oily and she was like me too and it works. I was like nahhh lol
Yes!.I tried only concealer and my eyelids get greasy faster.
Yes! With concealer my eyeshadow is crease central. I have dry skin but oily eyelids, which I think is so weird!
I have oily lids and concealer ends up creasing even with eyeshadow on top! :(
Try the covergirl lid lock up with a light layer of concealer on top. Works for my oily lids 👍🏾
Same!!!
It happens with me too. The concealer crease even if i set it with powder as i have extremely oily eyelids. Also primer or concealer, my eyeshadow cannot last for 10 hours so can’t comment much on longevity of primer on oily eyelids.
Same. Concealer doesn't work for me. I tried it a few times after I saw YT doing it and it just creased along with my shadow.
Yeah! I find only eye shadow primer helps and only then my eye shadow doesn't crease at all. So for oily girls, an eyeshadow primer is a must and concealer does not at all work as a lid primer for oily lids.
As an oily eye lids girl I HAVE to use primer and the nars eye primer is 10/10! I can also get away with using the nars soft matte concealer!
hello amee totally agree...it is my ride or die...I have to finish the rest but that is what I will repurchase
Agreed! The Nars one she used is my holy grail! I always repurchase it. I usually go for the clear one though, I have yet to try the tinted one.
Also Urban Decay's Primer Potion is great!
@@dcqvvr Yes it's a life saver!
Me too. I love the wet n wild primer and i just add concealer on top for coverage.
Eye shape matters too. Eyeshadow primer makes a huge difference for peeps with hooded eyes. It helps to prevent/minimize transfer and creasing.😍
Agreed
Same!!!
I have hooded eyes. Concealer works fine for me.
I have both hooded and oily lids. I never wear my eyeshadow without primer.
Oily eyelids here 🙋♀️ and if I were to wear concealer as primer my eyeshadow would smudge faster the the time i took to put it on 😣
Jelani Rod AMEN! Primer forever
Same girl! Us oily lid girls need our eyeshadow primer haha.
if i use just concealer then i’ll crease & it looks nasty :/ i feel ya
Same!!
I agree. Especially during summer. I might be able to get away with just primer in the colder weather, maybe. But I feel like the colors just look better and last longer with primer. For me anyway.
“Maybe this videos a series...or maybe this videos a flop” that KILLED ME. So funny 😂😂😂
An affordable eye primer for oily lids: MILANI EYE PRIMER. Keeps my eyelids matte for a whole day with the tinieSt amount
The wet’n wild is really great too!!
Thanks - I just bought this and feel better about using it when I run out of Clinique.
Yeap..!! Love it..! Also, Wet n Wild and Cover Girl.
I have oily lids and I will def try this ty:)

primers are mostly for people with oily lids, cause concealer alone won't work

What primer do you use?
Megan Hockey urban decay primer potion😊

I've always used concealer on eyelids. Cover them veins and purple hue and prime in one step. Love it.

Oh so good! I found the under eye primer from Revlon is a complete dupe!!
I keeping looking at it whenever I go into Sephora. For like, two years! 😂
Omg I use that too and it's legit as eyeshadow primer. But I also put on a dot of the nars concealer on my brow bone after and blend down.

A series! Have a guest with a different skin type, both you one on each eye and see how a primer and concealer look after a wear test.
I would actually love a series like this that compares concealers to eye primers!!
I have ALWAYS wondered about this! Now I don’t have to test it for myself. You should definitely make this a series!
I use MAC paint pot, translucent powder and eyeshadow to prep my eyes for eyeliner. I don't use an actual primer. My lids are oil central.
I’m living for all these uploads; also if I don’t wear smashbox 24 hour eyeshadow primer my eyes will Crease forever
Eyeshadow primer is absolutely necessary for me lol my eyeshadow will legit slide right off with my oily skin

I know I have to use primer because of my oily skin/oily eyelids...even setting the concealer before I put on the eyeshadow doesn't work
Which one do you use?
I have to use a primer for my crazy oily lids. Every time I try to use just concealer I get super bad creasing. Primer. Is. Life 💃🏼
Curious oily lidded girl here, what primer do you use?
kidpeach I’ve been using the Milani primer and a little goes a long way
Requesting an updated makeup room tour, please Kathleen 🙏🏻 Tis been a while 😆
You should do this video but with moisturizer vs face primer!
YES TO ALL. Please please do make this a series, and do do try the p louise base in one of them. This video is totally not a fluke cuz I've ALWAYS wondered about this question myself! Thank you for addressing it.
From an oily girl, I can def say that eyeshadow primer saves my eyes! Concealer makes my shadows crease like crazy!
You, me and every oily girl or anyone with oily eyelids would all be of the same opinion that concealer does not work for lids.
I have allergies and watery eyes so I've noticed when I use my mac paint pot the water from my eyes doesnt mess up my shadow as quickly. 🤣🤧
Ark Beauty by Sally, I’ve always wanted to try that product because Tati always uses it for eyeshadow! I like her videos, too.
Omg this video is the video I didn’t know we needed. I use concealer ALL the time and always thought eye primers weren’t necessary.
Andrea Renee, I have the NYX eyeshadow primer and I feel like it’s actually too tacky and makes my powder shadows clumpy almost. But it really helps my Cream shadows stick.
queen of blending i swear
I agree, the concealer side has a bit more color on the outer edge and in the crease. I've always been a concealer type for eyelid. But I've also used the UD primer potion, and it worked great as well. I think it's truly what you're into 🌷🌷
try the plouise base vs some full coverage concealer bc every seems to think its the best eyeshadow base recently
"I'm a dry ays betcha" LOL 😆
Love you doll 😘❤️👍🏾, so bright, so funny 😜
I always look forward to your uploads no matter what you post Kathleen 💕💝💖
I’ve been using concealer as my eye shadow primer for a while. The last eye shadow primer I used worked just as well as concealer. I have oily lids and my eyeshadow still creases on hot summer days. I haven’t tried the NARS primer. If it’s meant to absorb oils, it’s worth a shot. Thanks for sharing! 💕
Yes Kathleen!! I have oily eyelids and absolutely have to use an eyeshadow primer. It makes my eyeshadow stay vibrant all day! I use Urban Decay Eyeshadow primer potion in the shade Eden btw😊.
Try using a drugstore primer vs drugstore concealer for those of us on a budget?!
it's the same
I can't use concealer because I have oily eyelids. I use primer all the time!
“Dahling” we stan a supportive friend 🙌🏻
I'm 37 and have wrinkly and slightly oily lids. I have to use a thin, usually transparent primer for any eyeshadow look. If I use concealer, it is just too thick and it actually will emphasize the wrinkles on my lids. One that works pretty decent for me and which was only like $2.99 is the Jessie's Girl Eyeshadow Primer. It has a little color but not as much as a concealer and it's thin and spreadable but keeps my shadows in place without creasing. Worth a try for older gals!
Love when you include what brushes you use! Great video!
I have ridiculously oily eyelids and I can NOT get away with using concealer as a eyeshadow primer. I NEED an eyeshadow primer🤷🏻♀️
Liza ditto! Have you found a good inexpensive one?
@@adriennedeschamps1 E.L.F. has an amazing eyeshadow primer! It's extremely affordable, as well. You can find it online, and depending where you're from, the cost ranges from $1-$4 😊 I find that with oily lids (because same lol), it's best to use a primer(whatever kind) and then set it with some powder.
@@adriennedeschamps1 NYX proof it waterproof eyeshadow primer is my favorite from the drugstore 😊
I find it so interesting that we are all so different with makeup preferences! No wonder there’s SO many products! 😊
Yep.
I always mix my eye primer+ my concealer and I love the finish of that on the eye
Delilah Bautista me too! I conceal to cover the base, let it dry completely, then tap on primer
Omg, I’ve never been this early! I love you Kathleen!
I have oily eyelids so it’s an absolute must for me to use a primer. The primer I use is the Smashbox 24 hour eye primer. This primer can last me 14+ hours and my eye makeup looks flawless! I’ve used almost every eye primer on the market and I always go back to the Smashbox primer.
Kathleen! I find that eyeshadow primers only really make a difference with me when using bright colors! you should try that! I only use primer when doing a bold colorful look!❤️
What if you try this with palettes that say you need an eye shadow base instead of concealer to work?? 🤔🤭
I have combo/oily skin and I havent used a primer in a looooooong time. Just concealer+setting powder
Bianca Machado same!
I think your dry skin also is an aspect. My eyelids are very oily, so concealer itself is no way to keep my eyeshadow!
this was helpful and that eye shadown pallet is freaking perfect and ur eyelids are also, u look sooo on point and smooth
I LOVE this video idea. And yes! Please continue with this series with different primers and concealers.
“I’m a dry a** b*tch” same Kathleen same. 💀✨ dry skin problems here 🙋🏻♀️😂
WHO ELSE RARELY EVER WEARS MAKEUP BUT WATCHES TONS AND TONS OF MAKEUP VIDEOS
BTW I'm a TH-camr too!
Me haha i used to never leave my house w out makeup when i was younger tho! I still absolutely live makeup but since gaining a litbof weight and being so depressed i just dont take care of myself anymore or care what i look like unfortunately. It sucks. I miss the old me :( watching make-up videos is what makes me happy tho even if it's just for a short while!
And collect it but never use it🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😔🥴
@@jenniferwalker5096 omg same ugh I just bought more makeup today cuz my bday was the 24th and the sale at Ulta got me! I was like I'm buying this for a bday present to myself since no one got me anything and I plan on starting to wear makeup again. But I've said that a million times already and I haven't started wearing it again yet!
Yes so guilty of this lol 😂 I put some concealer under my eyes a little bronzer and highlight and run out the door
@@jenniferwalker5096 OMG same! :D
well you added more eyeshadow to the concealer side as it wasn't showing as fast as with the primer, right ?
It looked more vibrant ... not because it wasn't showing up fast .. Made the shadow look different when she was appling it
Could you maybe get one of your friend's who has very oily eyelids and do the same test on her/him? I think that would be really neat. Getting two different skin types together and see what works good for both types. That might be a lot of work, but it would good insight I think. I'm a dry lady, so all I use is concealer. But Kathleen, I think you're on to something here! This seems like what would be a great TH-cam series for your channel. Don't sell yourself short saying this will flop!! And you brought conversation up and ladies are helping other ladies with products. This is great! Good video! Florida folks, stay safe from an Oklahoma gal!
I love your videos! Maybe a series called “Will It Prime?” where you simply try different concealers as eyeshadow primers. You could do three in one video, but each filmed on a different day so you get a full wear test out of each one. You could do a max of 5 minutes of filming for each day/concealer and compile them. Application, check in, and end of day result (for each day you just film these three moments). Idk if I’m making sense, or how difficult this would be but GOD I’d watch the hell out of that.
Do a wear test on Gaby??? That’s an idea!!
I have oily eyelids and I just use concealer! 🤷🏽♀️ eyeshadow stays put all day with no creasing, but I do set with powder- not setting does not work for me
Please make video on bath and body works favourite products shower gel fragrance mist candle🕯️
I hadn’t felt a difference until I used the ABH one. That one has some sort of magic that helps shadows blend like a dream.
Great video. I am extremely oily and for many years I have used concealer as a primer. Mainly because I have slightly darker eye lids and it evens out the color. It works great as a primer.
Loved this vid!! But i swear by the MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot as my base! Please please please do a vid comparing that one!!!
Also, i haven't found the right concealer! I need one that doesn't crease under my eyes!!! What is the best best best one you all recommend?? Ik Kathleen has said so many but i can't keep track and i just need to know 1 BEST Concealer people swear by that doesn't crease under the eyes.
Sending love from Australia!!
I have reaaaal greasy lids and my eyeshadow smudges everywhere when I don't use eye primer :( I tried using concealer before.....oh boy crease central
Using concealer does not work for me! My eyeshadow starts to fade. I love using the Nars eyeshadow primer as well its my favvvvv
Gabby Flowers the Nars one is so fantastic...I totally agree
Hi Kathleen! I really like you write down every brush you used in this video! Is that possible keep doing that for every video? Because I am try to learn more about how to use different brushes, and that gonna be really helpful! Thank you xxx
honestly I don't care what video you post as long as you're in it I'll watch it. You're hilarious and all your vids are amaze
