Urban Decay Eden Primer Potion Review, Swatch, & Photos

Rating: 9/10

Sold: Sephora, Ulta, Urban Decay

Price: $20.00

Description: “Vibrant, crease-free color for 24 hours”

Review:

Pros

  • Has a yellow tint to it – evens out the lid
  • Very similar to MAC Soft Ochre Paint Pot in color
  • Lasts at least 14 hours on me
  • Dries very fast
  • Allows shadows to blend very easily

Cons

  • I don’t think they should claim this to be 24 hours
  • They need to make a cooler tone version of this for those with pinker skintones

Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer Review, Swatch, & Photos

Rating: 9/10

Sold: Drugstores

Price: $7.49

Description: “Create the smoothest, most even, poreless complexion!”

Review:

Pros

  • Smooths out the face entirely
  • Leaves a very smooth canvas to work with
  • Doesn’t feel greasy
  • No color (unlike the original)
  • Makes the skin feel silky

Cons

  • Not sure if it helps control oil at all, but I would say it controls it better than no primer at all!
