KATE Color Control Eye Base (EX-2 Blending Lemon)

When it was first released as a limited edition, it was out of stock and I was unable to purchase it, so I bought it when it was re-released. To begin with, beige eyeshadows didn't suit me, so I only used blue-toned eyeshadows. However, the problem with blue-toned eyeshadows was that they turned beige over time. I felt that this eye base was very effective in keeping the color beautiful. However, it's unfortunate that it accumulates around the double eyelid, whether it's the way I apply it or the amount I use. I'd like to try applying it a little more.

I've been waiting for this product to be restocked ever since I realized that my face needs blue undertones. By adding just a little blue to the base, it makes it easier to match eye colors that are more yellow-toned, which I don't really like. I usually use Canmake's Lasting Multi Eye Base, so I wanted to compare how well it lasts. I want it to become a standard product.

Canmake's eye cream primer has been discontinued, and I've almost used up my Excel Fit Eye Base, so I'm exploring new options. I'm glad I can still buy it, even though it's a limited edition product. My skin was uneven and dull, so yellow was my only choice. I also have sunken eyes, so I was hoping it would brighten my eyes. The large tip holds a generous amount of liquid, so I dispense it onto the back of my hand and then apply it with my fingers. It brightened my skin slightly, and the faint yellow that remains has made the unevenness better. It doesn't turn dark red over time, and the color payoff and staying power are quite good. It also feels moisturizing. If it weren't a limited edition, I would have repurchased it...it's such a shame. Until now, I'd been using yellow powder eyeshadow. Rimmel London Prism Powder Eye Colour 016 (discontinued. It was a golden yellow and looked great in many ways), Parado Single Eyeshadow YE01 (bought the discontinued version at Celle and it removed the dullness), Visee Avant Single Eye Colour 024 (a lemon yellow that was too light...), KATE The Eye Colour 051 (just right), etc.

This was my first time using an eyeshadow base, so I can't compare it to other products, but the color payoff and staying power were better than just applying eyeshadow. My eyelids were dull, so whatever I applied always ended up looking gray or brown, but this product gives off beautiful color. I think it's worth trying out before trying an expensive eyeshadow base. I recommend it for beginners.

I saw high reviews on social media, so I searched around and bought this. When I apply this and then my eyeshadow, it stays on so well that it barely smudges or comes off, even when I'm out and about late at night! It's scentless and easy to use. I liked the lavender color, but I can't find it anywhere, so I'm not sure which color to buy next!
