Can anyone help me fine a primer for my fine lines? I have horrible under eye circles as well. My fine lines are around my mouth as well as under my eyes. I haven't tried many primers but I use mac foundation. I'd like to stay in an appropriate price range so around $30 (each) or less for a primer and fine line helper haha. Thank you so much in advance!

Hi Destiny! I recently got the Charlotte tilbury Mini Miracle eye wand - It comes with a eye creme on one side that really tightens up the eye area. I feel like thats a much better solution then a primer.
The other end of the wand I a brightning "concealer" - It can be used on its own or on top of a concealer to give a bright awake look.
I don't have much darkness around my eyes so I use it without a concealer most days - But for you I would suggest you to yse the eye crem, then a concealer with good coverage and then follow up by dapping the brightning cream on top of the concealer.

I know this item is more then 30$ but this is a skincare/makeup item - so the eyecream do have a benificial effect on your eyes in contrast to a primer that just cover up but doesn't help.

I agree with Sabrina that most likely fine lines are exaggerated due to a dry eye area. What you may instead need is a great eye cream and primer...because no matter what concealer, if you are indeed dry, product will settle into every crevice.

Thank you both so much! I didn't think of it being a dry area! I'll definitely look into that wand.

My fav eye creams are Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream (plump and hydrates..even lids) and CeraVe eye cream. Both leave skin supple and you should see a difference in days. I've never tried Sabrina ' s suggestion, but definitely get those eyes hydrated. For your face..slso safe beneath the eye, Embryolisse Lait-creme Concentrate is a killer primer/moisturizer and makes me make up apply smoothly. I let it soak in five minutes prior to make-up. I'm obsessed! If you aren't mineral oil sensitive/acne prone..I highly recommend it. I can't believe how healthy my skin can be mid winter!
