How to: Make your own eyeshadow primer!
Primers can range from about $4-$45 (don't quote me- this is just form Sephora!), and that's a lot of money for something that you put UNDER your eyeshadow. Some of the most known are Urban Decay Primer Potion ($18) and Too Faced Shadow Insurance ($17). Now, I wanted to find a way to get across this money spending spree without sacrificing quality. I searched and searched for a good way to make a primer that is good quality (lot's of goods!). And I finally found the recipe! This is using only two actual products and requires only 4 materials. Anyone who tries this and owns a more expensive primer, like Urban Decay Primer Potion, please let me know how it holds up! I either expect it to fail epically or do pretty well! I can see the blog post now: "HOMEMADE PRIMER VS. URBAN DECAY: THE ULTIMATE BRAWL!". Anyway without wasting anymore of your time, here's how you make it!
Materials (I feel like I'm writing a Lab Report!):
- Body butter (I used one from Sephora)- preferably one with a thick consistency
- Some form of liquid foundation (I used a Chanel one with shimmer because I can't use it on my face alone)- this can have shine because it will give our eye that extra pop
- An empty container (I used an empty Clinique eye cream)
- A mixing utensil (Haha- I used a pen!)
Step 1. Fill the container about half way with the body butter, if you take too much just rub it on your hands!
Step 2: Pour about a nickel sized amount of liquid foundation into the body butter, if you pour too much just add more body butter.
Step 3: Mix the foundation into the body butter. Beware- this can get very messy! Your done mixing when you can no longer see any white, if you are incapable of doing that then just make if look like the picture to the right!
And your done! This is super duper easy (3 steps) and completely cost effective! Tell me what you think by emailing me at glitterglamour26@gmail.com (my blog email) or commenting. Hope this helped and see you guys later!
