Happy to see all these great comments & this great review on it! As much as I've always adored makeup, believe it or not, I've never used an eyeshadow primer before-I know, it's like, where have I been. So I decided to try this one-there aren't tons of them at the drugstore,& I like Milani cosmetics. Plus, it seemed like I'll see people on Youtube,& their eyeshadow always goes on more pigmented than mine-I thought maybe it was because they were using high end stuff, but even if they had the same stuff I do. Then it dawned on me they were all probably wearing primer & that's why.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15832672391596510715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-85273224568354042992013-08-30T18:24:50.946-07:002013-08-30T18:24:50.946-07:00This is the best stuff ever....love, love, love. ...This is the best stuff ever....love, love, love. I got this yesterday after using the Rimmel exaggerated primer for a few weeks. I used the Milani today and after having my eyeshadow on for 14 hours it still looks like I applied it minutes ago. My eyeshadow looks amazing through being in the heat and teaching. This is an absolute must.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07244617283504044235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-15638251524174207602013-08-02T21:31:09.339-07:002013-08-02T21:31:09.339-07:00I totally adore this primer!

I saw this at CVS one day and at first, I wasn't sure about buying it until I remembered that UDPP and TFSI are pretty pricey (in my opinion) so I knew that I had to try it. I have super oily lids and is only creases just a bit after the 8 hour mark, but the shadow stays put. I also use a tiny bit on my eyebrows before I fill them in and it also makes the color of my eyebrow pencil more vibrant, so I don't have to fill in as much to get the color and it stays put for a long time. This is awesome stuff.

I bought the Rimmel because it had the same type of applicator as the Trish McEvoy. So far, I'm not impressed with the Rimmel. It's very similar to the NYX and NARS primers that don't do much for me at all. I really need a tint in my shadow primers. I'm going to pick up the Milani primer tonight and let you know.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08939838728119385956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-79923834192524519712013-07-13T22:22:22.951-07:002013-07-13T22:22:22.951-07:00I wanted to love this product, but I'm sensiti...I wanted to love this product, but I'm sensitive to something in it that makes my eyelids burn when I apply it. After using it a few weeks (which I shouldn't have), my eyelids started getting dry and kind of scaly. It was also too yellow and dark for my skin, although I had been willing to overlook that too. corianderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09669467568000037852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-31474601427027462542013-07-12T20:16:50.518-07:002013-07-12T20:16:50.518-07:00I have only used it a few days, but liked it so mu...I have only used it a few days, but liked it so much I gave away my WnW primer.

First, they&#...Let me try me best to answer that! First, they're totally different consistencies. The wnw is thinner and slicker whereas the Milani is thicker and creamier. Also, the wnw has less tint to it. I find that both do a great job at intensifying color and keeping shadows bright and crease-free, but of course I cannot say one works better than the other because there are sooo many factors that are different from person to person (body chemistry, skin type, weather, humidity, etc.). Besides texture, another difference I've noticed is that the Milani is easier for me to remove with just my regular face wash, whereas sometimes the wnw sets so well that I have to use eye makeup remover to get every last trace off (not regularly but every once in a while).<br /><br />So the biggest difference for me comes down to texture. If you prefer a lighter, thinner, slicker texture then the wnw might be better for you. If you like a thicker, creamier texture, try Milani. <br /><br />I honestly can't say one is BETTER than the other because both work well for me. I would suggest trying both and see which one works better for YOU. CVS, walgreens and rite aid all allow returns/exchanges on used product so you have nothing to lose!<br /><br />Hope that helps a bit...G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16658662222451658254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-71987347145830009552013-07-12T12:23:34.883-07:002013-07-12T12:23:34.883-07:00It does!
