I agree that it would be awesome if silk naturals came out with a primer. I am so willing to test it!!
I currently use "depotted" udpp and it has great staying power but absolutely no blendability. I have good things about the shadow insurance from too faced but I havent tried it because I still have so much udpp. I have also heard good things about face fronts primer (survival paint) but I really dont know much about that product except that its only 11 bucks.

for shadow primer I actually use Milan Mineral's Gel Drops. It's made for wet-lining but it works well as a primer. I have super oily lids, and having that under SN shadows makes me creaseless all day =) The only problem is that I forget to use it most of the time, but I am finding that I can't go without primer on lids or face or I'll end up being super oily all day long...gross...

I've been working on it for a while- I've made about 30 trial runs, and so far I haven't gotten anything that's ready to sell. I have some new ingredients on the way, but I really can't promise anything. It needs a lot of TLC to get it just right, and then a ton of testing. It may be months before I have something- but the tests I have devised are tough to pass, so it will be good if it I can get it right.

if any of you ladies have UDPP, you can save yourself a lot of money but cutting open the bottle! I did this and it fit into I say about a 20 gram jar. There are a couple of videos on youtube on how to do this, you will be amazed!!

I used UDPP also, but I think I lost my tube..and I dont want to buy another cuz its expensive! I have used the Mary Kay primer too, but it's not great.

The main think I look for in a primer is if it keeps my shadows from creasing, I don't even care too much if it makes the shadow more vibrant, I just don't want it to crease cuz its so embarrasing haha.

I could test your primer if you still need testers! :)

Eyeshadow Primer is now available!

Eye Shadow Primer was released earlier this month and is up on the site. From Karen's description, it sounds like she sourced it from a third party instead of formulating it in-house.
