Question
How does this compare to UDPP?
I currently use UDPP and it does a good job, but the packaging sucks. I also have TFSI because everyone says it's the same, but my shadow still creases. Can someone tell me how this would compare to UDPP for someone with oily lids? I'm interested in this one, especially because it has no parabens, etc.

I find this primer to be *far* superior to the UD primer. Firstly, the texture/consistency works better for me - I find the UD primer to be too thick and difficult to manipulate, whereas the Lorac is more creamy and goes on like a dream, super-smooth. Also, as someone else said, the UD primer makes my eyes water/burn - not so with the Lorac. Both prevent creasing equally well, but the Lorac is just more, I dunno, luxurious...

I have super oily lids, so UDPP creases for me within about an hour.
This works SO MUCH BETTER. Just use about the size of a BB, or just a tiny bit more, depending on how much you need coverage for, and it works like a dream.
Another thing I've found that works is to wipe my eyelids clean with a wipey (baby wipes work well, for sensitive skin, unscented), and it'll work even better.

Urban Decay made my eyes tear up sometimes...maybe my eyes are a little sensitive, but I've been using this primer for about a month now, and it hasn't made me tear up once, and it works wonderful!

UDPP is the primer I've been using for two years, and nothing compares. I don't have oily lids or even issues with eye shadow creasing when I don't use primer, so originally I just used it to ensure the color I see is the color I get, but the lorac primer made all my eyeshadows, regardless of brand, crease. UDPP can do it all, and I would stick with that.

If you give this a try, you will love it! I was so loyal to UDPP until I decided to try this on a whim and now I swear by this eye primer. The formula of this primer is much better than UDPP and it doesn't cause that cakiness that UDPP tends to have. Also, because this tube is like a toothpast tube, you literally can squeeze every last drop out.

I have very oily eyelids, this is the only primer of the top high end ones that works for me with no creasing and great color payoff. It's economical because you use just a minute amount for both lids.

I've also tried UDPP & TFI, the UD still creased on me and the TF has bismuth oxychloride (shine purposes) but I get a reaction from this and prefer the Lorac - it works, nothing budges til you take it off : )

Okay every eye primer that I have used eventually creases my eyeshadow because I also have such oilily lids. When I started using Lorac that night I looked at my eyes and not one single crease! It is the best product out their right now.

this beats the other primers, hands down. and i have really oily skin, too. i don't usually get samples when ordering anymore, just trying to be a bit green, you know? i saw this, and on a whim, decided to sample it, even though i didn't see how it could be better than Urban or Nars.
everyday after work, i get in my car, flip down my visor, and check out my eyemakeup- no creases, everyday. i adore it. if you're able to get a sample, you won't be disappointed!
after buying the full size, i bought some samples on Ebay, so i could mail them to my friends who live out of state. i want them to know how fantastic it is, too!

This product is oil free so this is much better for oily skin/lids. Its a lot less thicker than UDPP, applies smoothly and dries almost instantly. This product also doesnt dry or irritate my skin (like UDPP did). And you dont have to deal with the messy bottle and wand, this tube dispenses the perfect amount, so there is no wasting - and with this tube, you get ALL of your product. I like this MUCH better!
