Mascara primer

What is your favorite mascara primer? None of my mascaras seem to want to stay on my lashes. You name it...Chanel,Dior, Benefit,Mac, none stay put. I end up with raccoon eyes! I used Lancome many years ago,but now their primer is more of an extender/ thickener. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks.

I use and love:

IT Cosmetics Waterproof Tightline Mascara/Primer. Use it as a primer or just as a mascara. Stays put.

Blinc Mascara, no primer needed, it's a tube lash mascara that, again stays put.

Lancôme primer--maybe apply the mascara right after the primer? Don't let the primer dry before applying the mascara. This might prevent raccoon eyes.

I love Loreal Vouminous Superstar - has primer on one end, mascara on the other - stays all day - around $10.

Urban Decay. I think it's called Perversion. It's in a white tube.

Waterproof mascara stays on without primer.

Thanks JustJazz, I should have double checked. I bought the UD eyelash primer and mascara from Ulta on a salegirl's recommendaction

and they are great.

Thanks,everyone. I bought a trial size of the IT and a regular size of the Urban Decay. Both got great reviews on Ulta. Happy New Year and thanks for your always helpful suggestions.

Always Shiseido..they had one a few years ago and it was so awesome and then stopped making it and then brought out another, it's very good too! Nourishing Primer and it's clear..no clumps or white globs like Lancome...or other white types.

I've tried everything and even the new one from Estee Lauder's new Little Black Primer which really dries out fast and basically waterproofs my already applied mascara...will not buy again.

It Cosmetics Primer is my fave as well....makes a real nice basline for my eyes, love the small wand that does that trick to tightline filling in gaps ... it's a great concept! it stays put all day and nearly waterproof for me.. I need that.

PS: I sampled that new Benefit Brown Primer...to me this was lousy! it smeared in minutes...it's awful! and does not "set" it's not worth 1.00 to me and so much hype? odd.

Oh, glad I read this...I was going to try benefit primer, since I like the mascara, but. I'll skip it. I used to love Shiseido mascara, but then found it got dry and clumpy too soon. I haven't tried their primer, but I like the idea of something nourishing.
