The one thing a girl always needs is a good eye shadow primer. Nobody's really a fan of the look where your eye shadow sits in lines on your lids (but if that's you're kinda thing, go for it!) so a good primer is something that's always good to have close to hand. My pick of choice is Urban Decay's Primer Potion. If you're a Naked palette lover, you'll probably have had a small bottle of this come with it as an accomplice - this has where mine has come from!
The Primer Potion applies as a nude coloured liquid with a creamy consistency but dries clear. It evens out the pigmentation on my lids and lets me start eye makeup with a blank canvas. The doe-foot applicator is really easy to use to apply product to the lid and I just blend it up to my brow using my ring finger. It keeps my eye shadow in the same place all day with no problems at all. I also tend to get oily eye lids but this works wonders for me so that's not a problem! Although you only get a small amount with the Naked Palette, you only need a teenie bit to do both eyes.
If you're spending money on good quality eyeshadows, I personally think that there's always a need for a primer. Who wants to spend all of their money on something that's not being used to their full potential? You can even buy the travel sized version for a mere £6 if you're just testing the waters!
What's your favourite primer?

Just a little side note - please will you sign this petition for cheaper holiday prices in school holidays. Every year, my mum goes crazy at the prices she has to pay to take us on holiday - it totals up to almost £500 extra because she can't take us out of school. Thank you! She'll love you forever!
