If you thought that Urban Decay’s Primer Potion lasted long enough, then wait til you see this!!! Urban Decay decided to super size their already perfect eyeshadow primer into a 60% larger product! This is an Ulta cosmetics store exclusive item, so you can only get it here: Ulta.com : UDPP XL : $22.00
I have a tip for everyone that still has a tube of the regular size of UDPP. Remove the inner core and you will get 6 more months of product. No joke!!! I pull out the core, starting where the top rim is of the product, and pull out a long plastic core, using pliers. The wand will then be able to reach more product. I don’t know about you guys, but my UDPP lasts about a year. I wonder how long the XL version will last!!!?
I really wanted to love this as much as I love the original Primer Potion. This product reminds me of so many other products out there.. sigh.. but it’s okay, I’m over it.
I have used a lot of MAC paint, paint pots, and the fluidline products, and they are all pretty much like “Sin”, which to me is a liquid eyeshadow and not really a product that holds shadow on. I also have a product like this from Biotherm (no longer in stores, but online) and Lancome, where the product was in a tube and you basically used it as an eyeshadow or base, but really didn’t have the staying power that the original Primer Potion does.
My final thoughts.. well.. I am sticking with the original potion. It works for every shadow, even creme shadows, and doesn’t crease at the end of the day. I did find with “Sin” that I had a minimal amount of creasing at the end of my work day and I did have to pat it around with my finger to make it smooth again.
