I'm using a lovely Clarins eyeshadow but I do have greasy eyelids. Can anyone recommend something?

Urban Decay is fab.

Laura Mercier do a good product to use on your eyelids, either just by itself to smooth and even things out, or as a specific eyelid base.... 'tis fab, can't remember what it is called....

MAC Paint pots - can get nude and coloured ones. Nude one is called 'painterly', or you could get one to enhance the colour of your shadow. I love them.

I use Urban Decay and Too Faced - UD slightly better (esp as the TF one separates a bit and you have to shake up the tube) but it has stupid packaging that doesn't let you get to the second half of the pot - the Too Faced tube you can use all up, so it's better value. I think UD is better for greasy lids.

I do quite like MAC paint pots too but find them a bit heavier.

Another vote for the Urban Decay one - eyeshadow stays put, doesn't crease and makes the colour more vibrant

I'm afraid I can't recommend an eye primer, but the best eyecream I've found lately is by Bobbi Brown - long wear eye cream pots. They are fab and last 24 hours (cos I sleep in mine) - simply amazing!

Fyrrinae's Pixie Epoxy, or Urban Decay's Primer Potion.

Tip for UDPP users - slice the tube in half. There is a LOT of product in there.

I am a trained hairdresser and also do skincare and makeup parties using Arbonne - Swiss formulated, Botanical products. The primer is fabulous and practically everyone buys one at these events.
Anyone who fancies a pamper coffee,afternoon tea,or evening session with a few friends and gorgeous products please contact me. I also do bridal and evening hair and makeup.
