    Default one more eye-makeup question

    re: primer and shadestick. Do you/can you use both products together, or is it an either-or thing? (I've got Urban Decay primer, and I'm looking to buy MAC shadesticks...the goal is to have my shadow go on bolder and stay put longer.)

    If you use both in the same look, do you apply the primer first and the shadestick on top of that? Or the other way around?

    And finally...how do you know which shadestick color to use with which shadow colours?

    Many thanks in advance for your help! I'm determined to get better at doing my own makeup, and the only thing I'm still not that good at now is eyes.

    The UDPP is fleshtone, so if you're using it with shadesticks you'll want to put it on first. Beigeing (sp?) and Shimmersand are both neutral shadesticks that you can use as shadow base with any colors.

    I use the beige-ing shadestick for everything. It's my favorite makeup item ever

    I assume you can use both together, use the PP first. If you're going to use both, I'd get a shadestick in the same color as the eyeshadow you plan on using to make the eyeshadow pop more. Otherwise, you'd probably only need one or the other.
    I believe you Dottie and you have my support

    Use the UDPP first and then a shadsticd yes using both will help your eye make-up pop and stay put longer. Also yeah for beige-ing!!! It's a staple of mine but of course if you get a corrisponding shadestick to match the eyeshadow color you will be using it will pop even more. Also if y want your make up to stay put use MAC sdio fix. It's a water based finishing spray and keeps your make-up from melting. Check out the MAC cosmetics community on livejournal, I've learned almost everything I know about make-up there.

    Yea use your UDPP first, just two tiny dots on each lid, also dont wait to long before using your shadestick or eyeshadow,ive learned it makes it harder to apply. I heard Beige-ing is a great base. I use UDPP and then UD Sin e/s as a was over the entire lid, then add your colors on top of that.
    Sins great!
