UDPP or Too Faced Eye Shadow Primer?

They both cost the same, they both have amazing reviews. I just need to know which one is awesomer, in terms of application, tube/bottle usage, storability, taking care of them oily lids etc etc. I am inclined towards TF because the rebel in me wants to use something that it’s that popular. Am I secretly a hipster? That’s another thread for another day.

You basically put it on your eye before applying the eyeshadow. Since I have oily lids the shadow after a while just smears off, no matter what I put on before the shadow.

Re: What's better

I've tried both and i prefer the Too Faced one, simply because of the packaging; The Too Faced one comes in a simple tube, so you can squeeze every single last drop out, whereas the Urban Decay one has that funny wand sponge applicator and after a while, it's hard to get any product out.

Be careful though....i've heard that many people have had allergic reactions to the UDPP.

Re: What's better

I use UDPP and like it. Its true the packaging is horrible and will make you waste alot of product, but there are videos on youtube that show you how to depot it into a small jar, so that you dont have to waste half the bottle

Re: What's better

I have both, And would recommend the Two face shadow insurance simply becoz of the packaging. The urban decay primer is just as good but it has a strange shape bottle and after a while u have to cut open the bottle and take out majority of the product and store it separately. I have my one in a separate jar and it has started to dry and harden.

Re: What’s better

that’s exactly what i don’t want happening

thanks i’m reading it right now =)

i dunno where to get it from =/

i saw that, but it’s too much for me to be honest. i know i’m going to be using it once in a while and i don’t want to have such a large amount just sitting around for years =/

Re: What's better

i asked this question this long ago? wow! anyway just an update, i bought the two faced primer. LOVED IT! it's slightly more expensive here in UAE than if i bought it online but oh well. i kept checking my eye makeup during the day and i was so glad to see that it did slightly crease, but only at the end of the day when i was going to wash my face anyways, and even then it was very slight. money well spent =)
