I have been a big fan of Urban Decay for a long time. When I first found out about it, I could only order online since none of the stores here carried it at the time (or at least none close enough for me to get to). I want to say it was at least 7 years ago. It was their amazing eye shadow colors that caught my eye. I never ordered from them though. I used to be very wary about ordering online.
Luckily, one of the malls close to me opened Sephora which just happened to sell Urban Decay. So which product did I try first? Eyeshadow Primer Potion. Many people absolutely loved the product so I knew I would not be displeased with it. I was right. I adore it, and seeing that you don't need to use a lot of the product to cover your eye lids and still have it work, the price is pretty good too.
I generally don't like to spend much on make-up products since I don't actually wear it daily anymore, so I normally talk myself out of buying a lot. That also means I buy the cheaper products, that in the end disappoint and end up just sitting in my make-up bag. I found certain tricks or products that can be used to make the cheaper stuff work just as well as the expensive products, and from time to time I may post them here as a reference for my self (I always forget my bookmarks or where I wrote it down at lol) and also so others can find it. I believe the more tips and tricks are posted on the internet, the easier it is for people to find them.
<.< I think I have rambled long enough this morning. My apologies for the jumbled thoughts. My brain tends to wander, so everything I write always seems to get jumpy. Even if I planned out what I was going to say. ^.^ I just wanted to post something this morning. I must have been dreaming about writing a blog. :P
Huuu. Primer Potion is SO WORTH IT! My favorite next to Too Faced Shadow Insurance.
ReplyDeleteI think a good trick when you don't want to spend a lot but want quality is to first figure out what you want, and then look for collections or palettes that have a combination of your needs, so that you can save up and get something rather than buying one or two things that cost more than the one collection combined. Especially if you don't wear a lot of make up. That's why I like to buy palettes, cause then I can get several colors, even if it's smaller amounts than individual colors, since I use only a tiny amount. Primer's awesome too cause it helps with reducing the amount of shadow you use, so it actually helps you save!
Yeah, It is a shame I didnt figure that out when I was way more into make-up lol :)
