Ok I have oily skin so I definitely cannot do without eyeshadow primer. But I find it harder to blend eyeshadows with a primer on, seems like where I lay the brush it all just sticks there lol, should I put a neutral shadow on first or something? Tips tips tips? Lol thanks.. And I use UD's primer potion.

I usually put a cream base eyeshadow after primer. It just helps me more.

What kind of brush are you using?

I also have oily eyelids, and I swear by NARS smudge proof eyeshadow base. It's very lightweight and a little goes a LONG way. My eyeshadow blends beautifully on this product.

Try using a different brush.

Which primer are you using? I would also recommend getting medium flat brushes as they're a bit better for application, as well as a good blending brush. Check out coastal scents.

Ok thanks! I am using Urban Decays primer potion, I've tried a lot of the drugstore primers but nothing worked until I found that one :)

I use UD primer potion as well but I can't say I have that problem, again I would look at the brushes you're using. I can blend colors easily with or without a base on top of the primer using my blending brushes.
