Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later Eye Primer - Long-Lasting, Eyeshadow Primer Base for Oily Lids & Crease-Free Wear - Smudge-Proof, Lightweight, Cruelty-Free - 10g

Due to a thyroid condition I lost all the hair on my face and, including my eyelashes and eyebrows. So my makeup routine has changed significantly in the last 4 years. Starting with a completely blank canvas every morning definitely has its challenges, and having no eyebrows at all has been my biggest struggle. Eyebrows frame you're entire face, they are the primary components in facial expression and have a huge impact on how we communicate non-verbally, which is over 75% of our communication. I was born with a condition that resulted in the small bones in my inner ear not to form properly and I spent the first years of my life unable to hear. Although surgeries were able to provide approx 60% hearing ability later on, as an infant, the method of communication I depended on was non-verbal, unlike most babies. Still to this day, my communication depends on what I feel and see, not what I hear, and eyebrows play a huge role in my ability to understand what someone is trying to communicate. I don't mind not having eyelashes, but eyebrows actually have a significant impact on my ability to properly communicate with the world around me,domething most people don't even realize how important their eyebrows are for more than just the beauty aspect.I have tried thousands of eyebrow products from pen, pencils, pomades, even sticker brows trying to create eyebrows that look like my natural hairs. Even when I found products I was satisfied with, my oily skin would have my brows gone by noon. I wish I could thank her in person, because it was her review left on a different product on Amazon that led me to discover the Thank Me Later primer. I know it's mainly designed to be used as an eyeshadow primer, but this primer has been my holy grail for keeping my "eyebrows" looking just as good at the end of the day as when I first step out in the morning, every time I use it. And because a little goes a long way, I only need to use a tiny amount the size of a sewing push pin head each time, one tube literally lasts me almost 2 years. I bought my first tube at the end of 2018,and today in Aug 2023 I just ordered my 3rd tube, and still have some left in the second one. I just never want to have to go a day without this primer so I decided to have an extra tube on hand in case inflation continues to skyrocket prices like it has been.So for anyone out there looking for a product that can help you to create natural looking eyebrows that stay put for 24 hours, even with oily skin, THIS is your answer. I apply half a pin head size amount to each eyebrow area, (I apply mine using a stencil that I also use to apply a light brown powder with to form a clean, even, defined shape for each eyebrow) I let the primer dry while I apply my under eye concealer, then use my stencil and dab my eyebrow powder (just a shade of eyeshadow I found that matches my natural dark blonde hair as close as possible), then I carefully define the perimeter of each eyebrow with a tiny bit of concealer on a very fine tipped, firm angle brush (by Kat Von D) to give precise definition to each of my brows. I then go in with either my "Snatch and Lift" eyebrow pen or two shades of Kat Von D's "Signature Brow" pencils and very lightly create individual hair strokes. The Thank Me Later primer with a single spritz of setting spray keeps my brows looking great all day. Nothing else is needed and I don't have to worry about touch-up throughout the day either.Just a tip for those interested - When I have a night out planned with someone that I know usually leads to some hot, sweaty, face in the pillow all night adult activities, (which as adults, we all know those times can happen) my other secret for brows that stay put for up to 2-3 DAYS or through a wild all-nighter is a final coat of a product called "Model in a Bottle." It looks like a bottle of pinkish clear nail polish, but it's the BEST eyebrow sealer I've ever found. One swipe and your brows wont budge. Its held my brows in place even through a shower and getting pushed into the pool. =) So there you have it. This primer is one I depend on every single day that allows me to start with no eyebrows at all, to natural looking brows that last until I remove them when I'm ready to. Hopefully my review will help someone else as much as the review I read that led me to discovering this primer years ago. =)

Love this formula. I have very dry skin so it’s nice that this is not too anything ; loose We and liquid or dry. It’s just right. My eyeshadow goes on better and stays on. A little goes a long way with this bottle.

I decided to try this after really liking the Thank Me Later Color Correcting Primer. It's very easy to apply, but I mistakenly didn't give it time to dry the first few times and immediately applied eyeshadow on it with some mixed results. After some trial I realized it works best when given a few minutes to dry before applying anything over it, after which eye shadow goes on more evenly and stays longer. I've used others that were more resistant to creases but were more difficult to apply, this is good for applying quickly but has a good overall result.

incredible smell, smooth matte feel that's not greasy, no white cast, very luxurious and definitely will be buying again! Bought this as it's mineral sunscreen and safe during pregnancy and love it.

The best eyelid primer I've tried. It provides a smooth "canvas" for eye shadow and liner without drying the eyelid skin and you shadow and liner stay put. My liner always used to disappear in 5 minutes, but with this,my eye makeup stays all day and night.I also tend to be allergic to a lot of eye products but I have no trouble with this.Great primer

I wish I had discovered this eyeshadow primer years ago. After trying several high-end and drugstore primers, this one performs the best on my eyelids. It isn't oily, doesn't crease, and helps fill fine lines for a smooth eyeshadow application. While I wish it were tinted to help cover redness and small veins, it works well as a base for powders that do. I use this primer and then add a light layer of powder foundation on my eyelids to cover any discoloration. It is an excellent value for the amount of product you get and the fact that you only need the smallest amount as it spreads easily.

I've been using the Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later Color Correcting Primer for a few months now, and it has completely earned a permanent spot in my makeup routine. I have some redness and uneven tone, and this primer really helps to even everything out before I apply foundation. It goes on super smoothly, doesn’t feel heavy or greasy, and gives my skin a velvety finish.It also helps my makeup stay in place all day—even in heat and humidity—and I’ve noticed I don’t get as shiny in my T-zone anymore. A little goes a long way, so one tube lasts me quite a while.If you’re looking for a primer that color corrects without being cakey or overly silicone-y, this is it. I’ve tried a lot of primers, and this one seriously lives up to the hype.

I developed rosacea in 2020 and have tried a myriad of different products to help cover the redness. Along with rosacea, it caused my pores to become large. Joys of aging, I guess. I thought I would try this out, what did I have to lose, since it has a money back guarantee. Well I’m not sending it back. It covered the redness well, wasn’t cakey or greasy. Didn’t settle in my pores. I haven’t tried it with my foundation yet, but I’m going to say that it should work fine with it, since it works well without it. It doesn’t feel or look like you have anything on.
