Editor's TipEditor's Tip

stila Pro Artist Sarah Lucero says for an ultra-mod look, use Prime Pot on your lips, but make sure they’re well moisturized first. Too severe? Top it off with stila's lip glaze to create a prettily muted color.

Birchbox Breakdown

No matter how skilled you are with a blending brush, eyeshadow has the tendency to go slip-sliding during the day — or worse yet, to become more creased than a pair of Dockers. This waterproof primer solves both of those problems and then some, and it comes in two flattering neutral shades. Bonus: you can wear it solo to get a wide-awake look.

How it Works

The formula evens out your eyelid like a concealer to give you a completely matte, smooth surface for shadow and liner. It’s designed to stick to colors to keep them in place for hours and stave off any creasing or flaking. Lighter skin tones should try Taffy, a pink-toned beige, while darker skin tones should go for Caramel, a warm tawny hue.

How to Use

Use your finger to pick up a touch of formula and blend onto the eyelid from the lashline to the brow. Since it’s waterproof, the formula is fairly dry, but it spreads easily. Follow with your usual makeup.

Isododecane, polyethylene, cyclopentasiloxane, trimethylsiloxysilicate, disteardimonium hectorite, phenyl trimethicone, hydrogenated polyisobutene, lecithin, barium sulfate, propylene carbonate, phenoxyethanol may contain [+/-] mica, titanium dioxide (ci 77891), iron oxides (ci 77491, ci 77492, ci 77499) .

Love

I love this primer. I wear it daily under my eyeshadow. The creases have minimized in this 100 degree weather I live in.

Not as great as expected

I typically use Laura Mercier eye primer, but since I recently ran out, I decided to try a new brand to mix things up. The color is perfect for my fair skin and it holds my eyeshadow in place for a while -- but after a few hours, I notice the primer begins to crease, and my shadow begins to "slide." Ick. It's good for an evening eye-shadow setter, but not for all-day.

Miracle Cream

I have only recently started experimenting with eyeshadows and eyeliners, so I figured I'd need an eyelid primer. So glad I purchased Stila Primer Pot, I used this product once and never had to worry about smudged eyeshadow or smeared eyeliner and mascara again. I'm in love!

Great Primer!

I love this primer. It keeps my eyeshadow in place all day without getting cakey. The natural color lets it be completely unnoticeable. I highly recommend it!

Good, not great.

I was looking for a new eye shadow primer after my previous kind was no longer being made and I wish this was as good. It's not very spreadable once on your eyelid. It tends to clump a little and is hard to blend. As far as keeping the shadow on my lid it does an ok job. The pot should last a long time with makes the price worth it.

great primer

This primer is GREAT for oily lids. I would know that because i have really oily lids, and this stayed on all day and held my makeup (i use alot of eye-makeup.)

Helpful in keeping shadow in place

I love this Stila Prime Pot, it really makes a difference in how long my shadow lasts. Unfortunately, if you use a cheap shadow, the primer shows through under it!

Doesn't dry tacky

This primer doesn't dry tacky like some other eyelid primers I've tried. My eyesahdow stayed all day, even though I have semi-oily eyelids! Just wish the quantity was greater (tiny pot), but it only takes a little bit.

Great product: Now a daily beauty staple!

The consistency and coverage of this primer is fantastic--it helped to keep my shadow in place all day without that pesky eye lid crease!

Will not use any other primer

I have very dark eyelids that make me look sickly if I do not apply something to them. This is a miracle product. Not only does it keep my eye shadow looking spot on hours later, on days that I am rushing I just use this as eye shadow and my eyes look brighter. I have used many primers before this one and this has the best texture as well.
