Where do I find Lumene?

Mmmm, I have to agree with the other dissenters here.
This does nothing for me, I still crease with this.
The only thing that I've found that works for me are Mac Paints.

I have this in my kit...I transferred it to a small plastic container so clients wouldn't freak out, but it works really well!!

I really like the PP, it keeps my shadows in place all day, it's been a long time since I've found something this good.

I don't have really oily lids but it works great! My eyeliner is so easy to do when I have the primer on. It goes on really smooth and the color is much more intense. Love this primer!

I know! I bought my first tube around Christmas and I was completely blown away. I had high expectations for it already, but WOW! I'm in love!

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
I decided to try this out depsite the fact that the bases I use already work fantastically for me (combination of either a MAC paint with a CCB, or a shadestick with a CCB).
I found that the more I use this, the more I love it. I still like to combine with either a shadestick or a paint on top as it really makes the colors POP. Sooo glad I bought this!

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
This stuff is totally amazing, I've been using it for awhile now.
I even apply it to my eyebrows, so when I fill in my brows with powder it doesn't move!

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
My eyelids are oily and eyeshadow creases like crazy on me. I don't believe the hype about products, but I'm a UDPP convert now.

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
I love it!
It's a total staple for me!
The first time I used it I was disappointed and was thinking WTH why is everyone raving about it?
The second, third, fourth time..I was hooked!
Amazing stuff!
It's like glue for your eyeshadow!

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
After reading so many glowing reviews of this primer, I decided to try it. But for me, it caused my eyelids to become flaky. Has anyone else experienced this? Am I somehow putting it on wrong, like putting too much of it on?

Re: UD Primer Potion ROCKS!!!
I didn't realize how much I loved this stuff until I ran out, and then had no money to replace it! Next trip to Ulta I'm definitely picking more up - no more excuses!

Did you put too much on? You only need a tiny bit and dab it on. Put the color on as soon as you put UDPP. That stuff dries really quick. Hope this helps

I've also heard that its a good all-over face primer like Smashbox, but I haven't tried it myself. But i've heard raves.
PS Im an UDPP fanatic! I love it!
