The last few months though I've started getting a consistent drip out of my left eye, so much so that the area has started getting sore and irritated.

I thought it was hayfever, so continued my meds for it but it is winter where I am and hayfever is not so much of an issue anymore and even on days with no other symptoms, my eye still drips! It's gotten so bad that I have to carry an extra eyeshadow and mascara with me to touch up during the day.

Then I thought, maybe it's the UDPP?

So I bought a mac paint to prime my eyes, and tried it today with no UDPP underneath.. and miraculously NO DRIP all day.

Has anyone else encountered issues with Urban Decay's Primer potion, or suggest what it could be in the product that causes it? I'm wondering if too faced's shadow insurance would be better?

TIA, Sal.

I think that is the answer ladies- UDPP has caused my drippy eyes!

So the new question is, what ingredient is doing it? I'm going to try TFSI to see if that is better.

Thanks for all your replies!

It's really interesting to find out other people have had similar experiences with UDPP. When I first started using it (about 6 months ago too) my eyes got really watery and felt extremely tired.

So I gave it a rest for several days, then put it only in the crease instead of all over the eye lid. That seemed to work. No tired or watery eyes.

So I kept doing that for a while and then slowly started putting it over the whole eyelid and brow bone and it's been great, no reactions.

Perhaps my skin toughened up and became more tolerant of it. Perhaps it's how it is applied. I always apply it very softly with my fingertips, maybe I was a bit rougher when I first started out. Who knows!

Good luck with TFSI, I'll be interested in your results
