Here are some swatches of different shadows over the E.L.F. eyelid primer (left/top)
and over Urban Decay Primer potion (right/bottom)
shadows from left to right:
MAC nightlight pigment, covergirl trio- shimmering sands (1st shadow),
MAC mauvement pigment, GDE Aqua Foil
If you can tell, the shadows swatched over the UDPP were slightly more vibrant than those swatched over the ELF primer. I also noticed that the color applied more evenly over the UDPP as opposed to the ELF primer which was more vibrant on some areas and a little lighter in others. I also noticed that pigments/loose shadows worked a little better over the UDPP.
Overall, I felt that for $1, the ELF primer held up pretty well throughout the day without
The E.L.F. eye transformer can be purchased at www.eyeslipsface.com/ under their Studio Line. It retails for $3 but ELF always has a ton of coupon codes so you can get it for less. The eye transformer is used to "convert your shadows into brand new shades with these four opalescent shadows."
The best way to see their transforming "power" is to use it over a dark shadow or base. I swatched them over MAC's blackground paintpot.
There is a greenish, goldish/orange, pinkish, and purplish (lots of "ishes") shade. You can see that swatched alone they look like white shadows but over the shadow you can see the difference.
I think this is awesome because it gives you endless possibilities of colors with the shadows you have already, and for $3 for 4 shadows, i think its a great deal!
I only own 5 of the ELF mineral eyeshadows. I find the ones i have to be really pigmented. But they are all shimmery, and most of them are frosty except for wild. At $3 a piece I think its pretty good.
