It’s a total win when you can score a sample of a product that you’ve been wanting to try. With a recent Sephora purchase I was able to add in the Stila Prime Pot in Taffy.
What Sephora has to say about Stila Prime Pots:
What it is:
A water-resistant eyeshadow primer that delivers flawless, creaseless eyeshadow wear all day and night.
What it does:
This innovative formula is crease-resistant and extends eyeshadow wear all day. When used as a base, Prime Pot’s unique polymers adhere to eyeshadow and create impeccably smooth lids, keeping excess oil at bay. These lightweight matte eyeshadow primers are universally flattering for all skintones. Size: 0.14 oz
Taffy (pale pink) is a great base for shadows, or to wear alone. It smooths out the eye and grips your shadows with an iron fist. It’s a little bit thicker and tackier than primers from Urban Decay and Too Faced, but dries rather quickly. I found that applying with my finger worked out better than using a firm brush. (in the swatch above, you can see how in the middle it’s still a little wet on the thick swatch). I didn’t need another primer under this product, which was nice. When I use MAC Paint Pots I always have to apply my UDPP first.
Stila Prime Pots are available in two shades, Taffy and Caramel. After my sample of Taffy runs out, I will absolutely go and purchase a full size.
Stila Prime Pots retail for $20 each (for the full size) and are available at Sephora and the Stila website.
Looks like a creamy and consistent formula. I think it will do a wonderful job as a base.
