Wow guys... I am surprisingly SHOCKED!
After hearing all the talk about eyeshadow bases and shadows with good staying power... I figured I'd check it out at my next shopping outing. I think it was Laura? that mentioned the L'oreal Decrease base... I dont' remember who said it - anyway, I saw that at Walgreens... but the $8.00 price tag kinda turned me off - so I looked around in other brands. Didn't really see anything. So I pretty much just left without anything. Then later on I went to Sally's looking for train cases - and I came across a pretty bland looking package in the back of the store (Where they have 'sealed w/ a kiss' lipstick sealers) it is by "Claudia Stevens".. it's called "All Day Shadow Base". Claims to "Set shadow and liner to stay all day and night!" (Works for me! LOL) It's a little jar - and the cream is almost a pearlescent white. It was only $4.99, so I figured - what the heck. My god guys... I put this on at 7:15 am over my entire lid, from lash line to brow bone, and some just under my lower lash line where I also apply liner - I then allowed it to set a few minutes (as per the instructions) and then did my shadows as usual... OK it's now 9:44pm... and my shadow and eyeliner looks EXACTLY like it did this morning!!!! I'm not even kidding... not a smear of liner, not a smidge of creasing ... NOTHING!!! This stuff is AMAZING!!!! And I used some cream shadow as well as powder. And usually whenever I use creams, it's caked in the crease in an hour. Powder shadows usually crease up mid-day. Almost 15 hours later, and NOTHING HAS MOVED!!!!!
I really can't believe it... from something that most people would just pass by in the store too - it's unbelievable... I tried taking a pic of my lids, but my lighting wasn't that great - so you'll just have to take my word for it! Here are some pics of the package and the jar...
