I wish this worked on me, but sadly it doesn't. I like the color, it blends nicely with my skin and masks discoloration. I love the packaging. But it does absolutely nothing to keep my eyeshadow...

I'm so disappointed with this product... I actually swatched it Sephora several times before deciding to purchase it because it is a bit pricey, and until then I was so in love with it. I started...

I've tried several primers including MAC paint pots and UD primer potion. I've found this to be my favorite by far; it goes on smoothly, dries quickly, neutralizes my reddish lids and dries...

Love it. However, I don't like the tube as it's impossible to get the applicator to the bottom and scrape it clean when the product runs low, and for this reason would prefer it if it came in a...

This was recommended to me by a local pro who did my best friend's makeup for her wedding when I asked her what she used as eye primer for her clients. She was nice enough to let me try it that day...

A friend recommended this as a primer, but it hasn't worked well for me. I find that it goes on very liquid-y and slides around my lid. It also takes a while to dry and I am not that patient. It...

Bought this initially to use on my under eye area so that my Tarte corrector/concealer did a better job concealing the dark circles when layered on top of the LM. However, on stepping out into the...

Flax is one of my favourite Laura Mercier Eye Basics. It is a light pearly beige, and adds a subtle sheen and polish to an otherwise unmade up eye. You don't need much else except for mascara and a...

Love this! The newer colour formulation is really pretty, with just a bit of pearlescence. It's great under shadow, but really pretty on its own for a "no makeup" look. It makes you look somehow...

This is by far my favorite eye primer. The eye basics in flax has a really pretty pearlescent tint and provides the perfect canvas for other eye makeup applications. It dries quickly to a matte...

I used to use the LM Linen (too light) and Wheat (too dark) so gave up on the Eye Basics and found Trish McEvoy Bare eye primer. Well, I tried Flax and it works (maybe I wasn't the only with the...

I got a sample of this in the color Buff after placing a Laura Mercier order. I bought Flax at Sephora because I wanted to try a lighter color. It has a sponge-tip applicator, but a lot of product...

I purchased this product after visiting Sephora in search for an eyeshadow base. I have used Urban Decay's Primer and loved it but wanted to see if there was anything better. The MA at Sephora...
