Urban Decay Primer Potion?

[abirdasparrow]

I recently bought some UDPP from Ulta, but I am not satisfied with it at all. Maybe I'm just not doing something right? I have a cream eyeshadow that has a gorgeous color, but it creases like no other, even with the UDPP. Is there something wrong with the way I am applying it, or is it just not good with cream shadows? And is Too Faced Shadow

I absolutely love the UDPP, I have it in the regular color and the champagne one, "Sin". Maybe you're not letting it dry enough before you put on your shadows. You should put a lot on so there's a big fat layer of it that will attach shadow to your lids. I usually put it on three times actually, three thick layers.

i'm amazed it stays put for you. i have to do thin layers.

Personally, I put a super thin layer.

I've put on one thin layer, let it dry totally while looking for shadows to use for the day, and then put on another thin layer a few seconds before beginning to apply the shadows and it works out pretty well. As for the cream shadows, those always crease unless you set them with a powder shadow of some kind. But they make AWESOME base colors!

Cream shadows just tend to crease regardless -- unless they dry to a powdery finish, there's nothing you can do for them. What brand is your cream shadow?

And you only need a TEENY amount of UDPP. It's nearly impossible to work with if you put on too much :-) two little swipes of the wand on each eye should be plenty!
