Bare Escentuals PrimeTime Primer Shadows

What it is:
An eye primer that doubles as an eye shadow.

What it does:
Prime Time Primer Shadows provide vivid, rich, light-reflective metallic color in a lightweight texture. Wear these unique primers alone or try them layered with your favorite bareMinerals Eyecolors for more intense color and infinitely gorgeous possibilities. These shadows are perfect for those with oily lids, uneven skin-texture or anyone who experiences creasing and fading.

What else you need to know:
This product is gentle enough for sensitive eyes, including contact lens wearers, and contains no preservatives or fragrance. Jojoba seed oil and honeysuckle extract condition the eyelids, while vitamins A, C, and E provide effective antioxidant protection.

Thoughts-I have all six colors and they are amazing!!! I use these as well as ALL the other BE primers and just a reminder use them all sparingly! A little goes a very long way and if you remember that this small tube will last you a very long time! It also helps if you use a brush to apply the primer, this helps to not over use the product. When applying your shadow over the primer, if you choose to, it will last you all day long and into the night! Enjoy! :)
