It seems like ages ago I learned about the importance of a good base for your eyes when applying eye makeup. It’s a practice I’ve played around with over the years, but not one that ever became a regular habit.
First, I feel that the cost of eye makeup “primer” is outrageous! Second, I’ve found that alternatives such as a cream based shadow add too much color to the overall look. Finally, I’ve never really had an issue with eye makeup lasting on a regular day - 9 to 5, 8 to 6, 5 to 2(am) or however it breaks down. HOWEVER, There are times where my day might get extended. Maybe I suddenly have an appointment that made the day go longer, or I had some overtime hours to put in, or (and most important) I’m unexpectedly going out after my long day of work or class and need my makeup to last because I didn’t bring any to touch up with (that’s a completely different issue that I realize is a shame in and of itself).
Lo and behold! mark. has a solution! The mark. Please Hold Eye Primer comes in two shades: Light to Medium and Medium to Dark, but in reality it applies virtually sheer. It definitely doesn’t sparkle like many competitor brands, which is nice; especially when one is going for a natural look. It’s light, not in the slightest bit greasy and only takes a finger swipe or two to get the job done. The best part is that it does what it’s supposed to do - extend the wear of your eye makeup! For only $8.00, I don’t know how ANYONE can find a complaint with that!
