damn girl coming with the excellent advice once again!!! it seems like every time im googling a solution to my niche eye makeup struggles youre the one to come through with the best results. the oily hoods struggle is so realll
Hi Lydia! I’ve been using it more lately and it’s really awesome! I find myself reaching more towards the elf primer then the Urban Decay Potion Primer. 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I have super oily eyelids and hooded eyes as well and it's really frustrating to see my eyeshadow just melt off during the day. This is so helpful, gonna be trying all the tips asap!
Thank you for this video! My eyelids were not really oily when I was in highschool but as I have aged a bit it's gotten worse. I will definitely be incorporating these tips into my routine!
Smashbox 24hr and Nars Smudgeproof and Mac paint pot. They are not drugstore but work awesome without the need for foundation or concealer or face powder on the lids. I have extremely oily lids. Also NYX Proof It - it’s the only drugstore option I’ve found to work. Cheap & Awesome! Only about $6. 😁
Dang! 😮 Thank you so much for these recommendations, I definitely have make note of these to try out!! I heard Mac Paint Pot is awesome and I definitely want to try out the NYX one since I'm really liking this brand right now!🤗
I also have oily eyelids and partially hooded eyes. Neither of the primers you mentioned work for me; I've tried both in the past. I use the Rimmel magnifeyes eye primer which seems to do the best to block the oil. Although I don't use any powder to set my primer as I prefer to set it with my eyeshadow, it's my understanding that using powder and setting spray under the primer would help to block oil. Or something like that. I'm thinking about the reverse foundation technique that some people with oily skin use.
Recently I can't keep eyeshadow on the inside of my eyelids and it's driving me BONKERS! Will be taking notes AND saving! I knew you would have a video on this!
I've literally just discovered not to use my moisturiser! I was having sooooo many problems including my eyes watering from it! So now I only do it at bedtime. The concealer! Omg I didn't even think about that, but it makes so much sense!! Definitely be leaving that off and just use my powder! Thank you for the great advice x
Really interesting video! I’ll have to note this down and try the steps out! I have deep set eyes and oily skin - are there any eyeshadow primers that could work in place of a concealer to brighten up the area and make me look less like something that crawled out of a graveyard? Also with the elf eye putty and the urban decay potion primer- how much should one use and how should i apply it? I was using ud’s primer potion for years then switched to ulta’s house brand version which worked better. Perhaps that means i might have been applying it wrong this whole time? 🤔
Hi! 😊 I know you said that you tried Urban Decay Primer Potion, but have you tried there flesh colored primer? Those are supposed to be really good! As far as how much to use for the elf primer, I use a very generous amount. Because the primer has white pigmentation, I was an even white layer because it can become somewhat patchy. For the Urban Decay, a lot goes a long way as you know so I just apply it to my lid and with my finger I spread it up to my brow. I’m not sure if you have heard of Robert Welsh but he’s an amazing makeup artist with oily skin and he has recommended a lot of primers for oily skin. Here is a good video from him, I hope this helps 😊 th-cam.com/video/H211ukSv1TU/w-d-xo.html
Hooded eyes? With this eyeshadow it looks like you have downward deep-set eyes with not much space between your lid and eyebrow. In any case, thanks for the tips! The UD primer potion doesn't avoid my mascara from transferring from my lashes to my browbone
Dos anyone else have the oily eyelid issue of having any makeup, including moisturizers and foundations, migrating into your eyes and stinging your eyes after a few hours? The oil from my eyelids without makeup stings my eye too!
Hi there, I was looking for this kind of video due to my crazy eyelids. Well I actually only have a problem on my right eyelid IDK why. I honestly don't know if it's an oily thing or if it's just sweat or like my tear duct going crazy on my right eyelid. but it's really annoying because I can't keep the eyeshadow on. Within a couple of hours the corner of my eyelid is out of eyeshadow.
Hi Jessica!! So sorry for the late response. I was trying to find an answer for you because I don't have an answer for you and I really wanted to find out for myself as well. Here is a link to my favorite makeup artist Wyane Goss and he goes over how to prevent this. I hope this helps! :) th-cam.com/video/WICAXEFEk8M/w-d-xo.html
thank you so so much for these tips! i have dry skin but i have hooded eyelids and theyre oily ALL the time. and when i apply concealer (i dont wear eyeshadows, however), it creases and transfers, and it's really frustrating. As a makeup newbie, i dont know how to solve it. but this video helped a lot! once again thank you
~ Stephanie can you help me I’ve been struggling for a long time cause I have super watery eyes and they are also super oily I’ve tried so many techniques from some many TH-camrs/Tiktokers and nothing seems to work, I used the Urban Decay eye primer (like everyone says the purple one ) and I let it dry but the eyeshadow never stays on my eyes then I tried to set my eyes after I primed them with a setting powder it works a little bit better but my eyes still end up creasing and it’s super annoying cause I wanna learn to do my eye makeup and nothing has worked 🥺can you help me ?
Hi Emily! So I just bought a few more eyeshadow primers and I’m hoping one of those will be the answer for you because unfortunately the Urban Decay primer is the best one I’ve used so far. Stay tuned! 🤗
Hi Zoe! Great question! I actually have been on the search for how to do this because I don't really like to use concealer on my lids but I feel like I have to when I do a cut crease. I follow a makeup artist Robert Welsh and he said that his favorite cut crease primer is actually the Makeup Revolution Cut Crease Canvas Primer (he also hates concealer on the lids) I haven't seen it on the Ulta website but it is on the brands website. I haven't used it just yet but I really want to.
@@stephanieholiday it’s really a struggle to do a cut crease with concealer when you have oily lids, then factor in layering sunscreen. It’s a teal challenge. My mascara always transfers too. Thanks for the Makeup Revolution cut crease suggestion.
I totally agree!! Having oily lids sucks and I have always felt that using concealer on the lids is not the best technique and I'm glad that Makeup Revolution came out with this product for our specific need! I hope this works for you!
Hi Stephanie! Loved your video. I’m a desperate 56yr old woman. I have dark circles. Will not be corrected no matter what I do. I use an eye primer on lids and under eye, use orange color corrector, and powder. Use eyeshadow then use thrive liquid eyeliner and thrive mascara.both of which are supposed to stay in place no matter what. I’ve tried every top rated eyeliner and smudge proof all day eyeliner known To man. I use Urban Decay all-nighter setting spray.. I end up with raccoon eyes no matter what I do, 40 minutes later. I do use concealer (tried Tarte,Clinique, all top rated concealers) powder after under eyes. .. still A MESS in the end. I’ve literallly watched every Utube video regarding smearing,old age etc. Never had this problem before. Do you have any wisdom?? So desperate! And have spent way too much on product that don’t work.
Oh no! I'm sorry ☹️ I'm trying to think of any tips and tricks that I have but those are pretty much it. I absolutely love the makeup artist Wayne Goss, check him out, maybe he will have some tips and tricks. He's my go to for all makeup tricks, he's truly amazing! I hope this helps!
Definitely! The Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder is will be around $5 depending on where you buy it. The e.l.f. Putty Eye Primer is $5. Robert Welsh has recommended some great eye primers that are under $10. Revolution Prime & Lock Eye Primer Revolution Cut Crease Canvas Hope this helps!!!😊
Omg so much stuff on the eyelids without skin care??!! I will only do this for special occasions. This feels unhealthy to the eyelids and I am sure it will age them fast.
As soon as you said hooded eyes and oily eyelids I was sold. New subbie
Thank you so much for your support!!! 🤗
Same😭

Yesss!!!! 😆
I love the ELF eye shadow primer! Ive used Primer Potion, but the elf one works so much better for me!
Hi Lydia! I’ve been using it more lately and it’s really awesome! I find myself reaching more towards the elf primer then the Urban Decay Potion Primer. 😊
hooded oily eyes, the bane of my makeup game. thank you so much for the help, greatly appreciated

I’m so happy you gained value from this video!!! 🤗
A favourite primer of mine is NYX Proof It! Eyeshadow Primer. It's cheap, and my eyeshadow does not budge all day. 👍🏻
Good to know!😊
Thank you for this video! My eyelids were not really oily when I was in highschool but as I have aged a bit it's gotten worse. I will definitely be incorporating these tips into my routine!
I definitely know the feeling lol as I've gotten older the eyelids have gotten a bit heavier. I hope this works out for you! :)
I have oily lids and I thank you for these tips. I do use translucent powder over primer and then over the eyeshadow just to help keep the oil away.
dang the hair change from straight down, and then the colored makeup.... WOW what a diff!!!! love this look.
I use the too faced concealer and then set it with an urban decay translucent setting powder and that works great for me❤️
I wish that I could do that, I feel like it would be so much easier and cheaper haha

Do you recommend natural or tinted elf poreless primer for oily lids
I do like the natural colored one, the white one is great for bright colored eyeshadow but the natural one is perfect for everything ☺️
Anything on a budget under ten
Definitely!
The Coty Airspun Loose Face Powder is will be around $5 depending on where you buy it.
The e.l.f. Putty Eye Primer is $5.
Robert Welsh has recommended some great eye primers that are under $10.
Revolution Prime & Lock Eye Primer
