So, I've been using the UDPP for about 2 weeks now and I'm just not sold on it yet. It gives my eyelids a white residue which makes them look horribly ashy, and I have to put it on perfectly or its like a globby white ashy yuckiness (does this happen for folks with lighter skintones too? I've seen some pics from folks that use UDPP and this just doesn't seem to be an issue). And I don't like the way it makes my eye shadow look. It doesn't go on as smoothly or blend as easily as it does on paints. Between the drying time and the extra time spent blending e/s I've added a good 10 mins to my morning routine, which I totally can't afford.
Anyway, I'm wondering if any other black folks or other folks of color or any folks have found these particular problems with UDPP and what are your solutions. I tried mixing a little concealer with the UDPP but it took a lot of time to mix and longer to set on my lids.
I do miss my paints and all of the colors, but I can sleep in the UDPP and its still fine the next morning... The paints just don't have the same lasting power as the UDPP. Also, what colors do you use in paints. I used Bamboom for the longest time, but then a great MA used Tan Ray on me and I haven't really looked back. It is a lot lighter than Bamboom, but its more mate.
Why can't MAC make something like UDPP... in different skintones... Cuz Prep and Prime Eye doesn't cut it...
(I wondered if this goes into reccomendations, but I know more people watch this forum and I'm hoping for more responses and discussions. I've also looked at similar Paints vs. UDPP threads but none of them say anything about how paints vs. UDPP reacts to different skintones.)
