How to make eye primer

On Wednesday I am doing a shoot for Fishead mag and the look is eye popping bright eye shadow colours. This got me thinking about eye primers to get that intense eye colour, so I thought I would let you into a secret on how to make your own eye primer.  The difference in using a eye primer with your shadow is astounding, it makes the colours look more intense in their shades and gives a real boost to the lasting ability of your shadow.


Basically just squirt in the equal amounts of liquid foundation, concealer and moisturiser (preferably a body butter or thick consistency moisturiser) in a small container from Plastic box and stir. Add more foundation to make it darker, more moisturiser to lighten it up. 
This also works well as a tinted moisturiser if you make it in a bigger quantities and don't add the concealer. Keep adding to your mix until you have the consistency and amount that you need. Rub a tiny bit onto your eyelid and up to your brow bone and leave to dry before applying eyeshadow. Your eyeshadow  will stay on noticeably longer after using this!! 
Also great if your short on money 


Enjoy, Hils x
