Too Faced Shadow Insurance Primer

Fabulous!

I purchased this item prior to a trip to Spain; although I'm not oily, I was going to be spending a lot of time in the sun, and therefore needed something to keep my makeup from melting off my face. The first thing to go is always my eyeshadow, so I figured I'd need a good primer for my eyelids. I had sampled out some eyeshadow primers from a few other well-known brands, but those either left my lids crepey looking, or didn't serve a purpose at all (creased and ended up looking gross). This one lived up to it's name! I love that it's in a tube, unlike the other eyeshadow primers on the market... more hygienic that way! It has a silky feeling, and dries to a silky, powdery finish. It's easy to apply-- the other primers I tried didn't blend too well, and looked obvious. I feel that this makes my shadow look brighter, than without the primer. At the end of the day, my shadow looks just as good as it did when I applied it. It definitely held up in the sun and heat! The value for the money is incredible-- only a teeny bit is needed per eye. I know this tube is going to last me for a VERY long time. Too Faced Shadow Insurance is most definitely a staple in my makeup bag (regardless of climate and weather) and will be until... well, until it's not being made any more!
