Some of us spend a couple bucks on drugstore makeup. Others of us spend moola on department store brands. But no matter how much you spend, if you're a Covergirl, Revlon, Mac, or Clinique, you want your makeup to stay on looking great, all day long.
I've done the Revlon eyeshadow thing. And I've done Mac. And nothing compares to the product I'll introduce you to now:
Enter Too-Faced's Shadow Insurance.
It's an anti-crease eye shadow primer that locks on the color all day long. (My words. Not off the package. I know it sounds commercial, but I couldn't come up with any other phrase!)
Unintentionally, I put this product to the test a few weeks ago. After getting ready for the day--make up'd and all--I headed to a waterpark with my kids. Thinking nothing of my water-matted hair and my now freckly face, I was surprised when I looked in the mirror and my eyemakeup was still in full and complete "take-my-picture-now" position!
I have found it works just as well with expensive shadows as it does with the cheaper ones -- which can save on your wallet. One tube costs $18 from Sephora. It may seem pricey initially, but trust me,
- a) it's worth it if you want to make the money you spend on your eyeshadows worth every penny and
- b) it lasts forever. You only use the smallest little dot to cover your whole eye.
- c) Sephora has the greatest return-any-time-for-any-reason return policy.

I’m not a huge make-up knower so it would be great to try!
Love all your tips on this site! Keep them coming. 🙂
Ohhh, just made it under the wire!
Sounds great.
Yes, sign me up. How do you get it off?
How do you get it off? Just as you wash your face as you normally would, or eye makeup remover. Simpy simp.
And, to Holley, the only thing it does to your eyeshadow is make it stay longer, make it go on smoother, and make me use less shadow because it stands out more. So, the only thing it doesn’t do is waste your precious eye-shadow money.
