What It Is

A creamy eyeshadow primer.

What It's For
All skin types.
What It Does
This unique, versatile cream primes lids to give you the perfect canvas for any eye look. Wear as primer under powder eyeshadow to create a uniform base, help prevent creasing, extend color wear and enhance how colors "pop" on your lids. Or, wear alone as "foundation for lids" to camouflage imperfections for a flawless nude eye. Medium-coverage formula helps cover redness, veins and other discolorations. Creamy, lightweight texture blends easily and won't slide off lids (you may have noticed how a typical face formula used on eyes has trouble staying put). Long-lasting, water-resistant and crease-free. Botanicals and other skin-friendly ingredients help soothe and protect the delicate skin of your lids.

Non-comedogenic. Dermatologist tested. Ophthalmologist tested.
Finish
Natural
Coverage Level
Medium
How To Use It
Apply to the eyelid with Crème Eye Color Brush, Crème Eye Detail Brush, the wand applicator or clean fingertips. If applying as primer, choose a shade close to your skin tone. Pro tip: Laura loves to mix the Eyebright shade with other shades to brighten the eyelids. The opaque brightness of the light blue shade gives a healthy glow to the eyelids (and helps correct purple or pink tones, too).

Love this product

I use this eye primer alone to brighten eyelid and it’s wonderful also when applying eyeshadow over it. Great product. I’ve been using it for years.

Absolutely the Best

I have blue, sensitive eyes, and my eyelids often look a little red. This wonderful primer is light enough and "clean" enough not to irritate my eyes and eye lids, but it still beautifully blocks the red from my lids. It lays down the perfect base for my eye shadows, which, of course, would only be the Caviar Eye Shadow sticks. Beautiful, non-irritating duo that lasts all day looking elegant. I hope that these are never discontinued.

Not fresh

This is a product I have used for years and like. The tube just sent is completely dried out and unusable. Think it’s an old version.

The Best Primer Ever

I've used this primer for years and for some reason it was either discontinued or not available for some reason. I tried other products and nothing came close to this primer. Please keep this product on the market forever!

Always Start with LM Primer

I have been Happy using the LM Flax Primer for over 5 years! It helps to set my powder eye shadow all day, without a touch up. The Flax is neutral, and different shades of eye shadow look good over it.

Eye Basics Primer

This product is a must part of my routine as the base for eye shadow. Powdered shadow goes on smoother and lasts longer. I have been using this product for years and I keep going back to it.

Smooth, nice finish

I have two, one matte and one with a shine. Both cover great and look great on their own as well. Nice base color all over the eye lid. I especially like how it lightens the crease, since I don’t need depth at my age.
