Jane Doe: I’m looking for a good eye primer for red eyelids but can’t decide which one to go for. I want something that neutralizes the skin on my eyes (I have a lot of redness) but also gives my shadows mega staying power.


Me: I have 3 favorite eye primers; M.A.C. Paint Pot in “Soft Ochre” ($16.50), Lancome’s Ombre Perfecteur Pen ($23), and Urban Decay’s Eyeshadow Primer Potion ($18). All have yellow undertones to neutralize redness, and the staying power of shadows are amazing!
