Bonjour,
I have used so many different eyelid primers and some are very cost effective ( Urban Decay Primer Potion for example which retails at a whopping £18) Now i don't know if its just me but £18 for a rare occasion of eye shadow is a bit of a splurge, so here's a simple cost effective homemade solution that works just as well and is also good for sensitive skin.
YOU WILL NEED:
- Body butter of your choice
- Foundation ( medium to full coverage)
- Cotton Bud ( Cutip for my american followers :))
- A empty pot or shadow to pan to store it
|
I am using body shop butter & Rimmels wake me up foundation |
|
I used to squirts of foundation & half a thumb of body butter |
|
Mix the foundation and the butter together until all the butter is covered in foundation and it is a cream consistency |
|
Transfer it to your chosen pot using a cotton bud or a spatula |
|
Smooth it down using the cotton bud and clean around the edges |
|
Pop it in the fridge over night and WELLLLLAAAAA :) |
|
Heres a picture of a swatch i took the top one is the eyeshadow applied with a brush and NO primer and the lower one is also applied with a brush and the homemade primer underneath good huh ;) |
Let me no if you try this and how you get on i would love to no :)
wow thats so cool!
ReplyDeleteI love that you've done it yourself and it obviously works so well - that's obvious in the swatches!
Love, Elizabeth xx
