Question
Does this work well with primer on top?
I usually moisturize my eyes and then put a primer on top and then apply my makeup. From what I'm reading -- please correct me if I'm wrong -- this product dries to an almost powdery finish, and works well as a base for eye makeup. I'm pretty loyal to my eye makeup primer, so would primer work well on top of this moisturizer, as far as the dried texture of this moisturizer goes?

I don't know what they're talking about by drying. Not once has this product ever dried out or "dried to a powder" on my skin. It's very moisturizing and sinks into your skin in about two minutes. It's great for under primer or any kind of concealer or foundation because I use it about 5 minutes before I put my makeup on for the day and I never have any problems. It's also formulated to hold eye makeup in place. Good luck.

this is really a prep product, so yes, use it before primer and moisturizer. I focus this mostly on the sides of my eyes and underneath. I stil put some on my lids, but not as a primer, more just preventative. wait till it dries before you do your moisturizer, and then your primer.

I've never noticed a dry, powdery texture. I allow this to dry prior to using my undereye make-up.

This doesn't dry to a powdery finish at all. I also use an eye primer and have no problems putting it over tip of the eye cream. I do tend to have about 15 minutes between applying the eye cream and before I put on my make up (while i get dressed).

I would recommend a cream that firms and moisturises. Clinique sells a wonderful cream Anti Gravity eye cream. (There are many to choose from, but if you wanted to stay within the Clinique brand) .

You definitely could use this under a concealer/primer. This has a very light consistancy and absorbs pretty much upon application. Probably wait a few minutes after moisturising to let products dry before applying make up.
