Most high-end eyeshadow cost about $17 dollars and up! Well, if you're on a budget and still want your eye-shadow vibrant and pretty, try making your very own eyeshadow primer! After watching a few videos from youtube, I went out to target and bought me a few thangs. Target is my most favorite store of all! lol, So what I was missing was body butter. You can use your own moisturizer which I will try soon, but I just wanted to try it out with body butter. I didn't chose a specific body butter I sorta chose what was kinda the cheapest around what I would use. First I saw the burts bees one, that was about 14 dollars, then I saw this other organic one which was also 14 dollars. Next i looked lower, and saw 10 dollar body butter in different scents so I just chose that instead. It's by Boots, called Amazon Forest Mango & babassu body butter. There was many other scents but since i liked mango, I just got mango.

So all you need for your homemade eyeshadow primer is body butter OR moisturizer, and a liquid concealer or foundation, something to mix with, and an EMPTY JAR! I just eye-balled the amount. I think i put more body butter than liquid foundation is what it seemed. But here are the results!:













rubs on clear and smooth :)


TOP: HOME-MADE PRIMER $ ALMOST FREE!
MIDDLE: TOO FACED SHADOW INSURANCE $17
BOTTOM: no primer

The colors turned out a tad bit different using the primers. Could it be because my body butter wasn't white? LOL!


The e/s I used from the 88 warm palette from coastal scents


After washing it off with water, the too faced primer managed to STICK ON MY SKIN!
The homemade primer lightly faded away
the one with no primer has almost disappeared.


After scrubbing it with soap, both homemade and no primer has disappeared,
but the too faced has stayed! LOL!



So, It doesn't hold up as good as the expensive too faced shadow insurance, but it is damn good enough for costing almost to nothing!! Imma try it out tomorrow see how it is on my LID! so stay tuned and see how it goes! LOL!

So if your on a budget, and don't want to spend that much on a deng primer, then make it yourself. It so easy quick and simple and CHEAP! basically free! However, if you really want you shadows to last throughout the day with vibrancy then you should consider investing in a really good primer such as too faced or urban decay($18) primer potion both you can find at sephora. But other than that, imma try out this primer I made tomorrow with the coastal scents eyeshadows! :)
