Miracle for Eyelids

Having tried virtually every eyeshadow base on the market over the past two decades, I have finally found my holy grail: Trish McEvoy Eye Base Essentials in Bare. So many other formulas have been too runny, too stark white, too drying, or simply difficult to work with. This one is incredibly user-friendly and forgiving. You can build it in light layers, blend it easily, and even apply a little over eyeshadow if you make a mistake and need to correct or soften an area without removing all of your eye makeup and starting over. Applied first, it creates a beautifully adhesive, smooth canvas for shadow, but I also love wearing it completely on its own. I have heavier lids, and Bare instantly brightens my entire eye area while neutralizing discoloration, redness, and unevenness without looking thick or cakey. It is genuinely the only eye base I have ever loved enough to wear by itself. After twenty years of searching, this is the one.

Perfect eye base

This product has been out of stock for some time. I have anxiously been waiting for it to be back in stock. I tried several other like products and not one was even close. So happy this is back in stock.

Dried out

It is a bit dried out and it shouldn’t be. Not sure if product was old.

This product has changed ;-(

I’ve been using this product for years and I am finding that in the past couple of years the texture has become extremely inconsistent. Sometimes it’s watery, sometimes it’s dry. And the amount of product in the tube has definitely been reduced. And for the price…!! I am searching for another product to replace this. Too bad.
