Urban decay’s Primer potion is much much better than MAC paints.
I will have to try MAC paints, or the Urban Decay’s primer potion. Right now I am using Estee Lauder’s Idealist
Refinishing Eye Serum. It works better than nothing, but you have to put your shadow on immediately after applying and it last about 6-8 hours. I am trying to find OC Eight, but it is not sold in my area - have you tried this? I don’t know if you can use it on your eyes, but it is supposed to be a wonder for your foundation.
A much easier (and cheaper) way to prevent creases is to put a little foundation on your eyelids before applying your eyeshadow. I have been doing it for years and it works every time!
I find that using an eye cream before make-up helps quite a bit. Primer works very well also. Adding a small amount of water to dry eye shadow works very well also. I hope this advice helps!
