  • at 6:00, you said it was a new unopened bottle!

  • that looked like a brand new bottle.

  • Holy Crap!! that's alot of fkn primer i threw out over the yrs.

  • they have changed it into a squeeze bottle like tooth paste and its clear so you know for sure how much is left :)

  • i kinda wanna by the UDPP just to take it apart and do this ;p

  • Turns out there's barely any left in my container. Have they changed the packaging so there wouldn't be so much left over??

    Mine is pretty scraped dry.

  • @d123am312 Yeah, they changed the applicator to an angle instead of straight down like it used to be. That way it can get all around the tube instead of just in the center like it was :)

  • I just tried this! Thanks so much! I filled up a whole jar!

  • Ok, I have to OMG this!!!! This video was the coolest thing ever!! I LOVE ETTTTT!!! As soon as I saw this I ran out of room and grabed my Primer Potion and did it! I was on Urban Decay's website about to order some more, and my bottle had been "empty" for over 6 months! I got so much out there it was CRAZY!!! Thanks soooo much!!!!!

  • lol i love how when your having a difficult time cutting it the music is saying " dont hurt yourself take it easy"

  • They're idiots for using THAT kind of packaging, that's why Too Faced is the way to go. (@ Sephora too for anyone wondering.)

  • Wow, that's pretty bad for product left inside, but there's been worse!

  • HAHAHA THE SONG WAS LIKE " Dont hurt yourself, don't hurt yourself" when you wre cutting the jank primer potion!

  • unbelievable!!! such a shame because it is in such a pretty potion shaped bottle!

    now that they know how inefficient the bottle design is...they will redesign the bottle and give us less product!

  • wow dats just messed up... urban decay scammed us bad wit dat tube design.

  • i was about to throw out my bottle and i decided to do this and cut it open..... let me tell you i have an entire jar left over.... i am good for a while now.... i was about to just go and get a new bottle.

    thanks so much for the great info!!!!! :o)

  • i used this method to depot my primer potion and it was easy to depot. it's like u had to saw ur kinife into the packaging to get it opened.

  • seriously the dumbest design they could think of. They really make us work for the product we paid so much for... and most people dont even know to do this so they end up wasting SO much money buying bottle after bottle. They FINALLY do have a squeeze tube now but its only for a limited time as far as I know!

  • that was a SCARY amount that you got out XD....didn't expect that, o..o heh

  • limited edition squeeze tube has been released!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I just did this and it was really fast and easy. I got so much product out of the tube, at least 3/4 of the total and I've been using the primer for a while now. Thanks!

  • Aren't you playing snow patrol? Not gwen stefani?

  • just goes to show you that they are only selling their brand rather than the actual product. it probably costs them cents to make the primer so they dont care that all that goes to waste. :/

  • where did you get that yellow kool looking scooper i need that..

  • Wiii it sat in its same consistancy or will it dry up in the new container unless you us it quickly?

  • Where would you buy Urban Decay Primer Potion

  • @BrezzyBabee26 they sell it at sephora, if u dont have a sephora near u, u can go on thier website

  • @peaceloveandpink17 Hey mama thank you so much for the good advice .... Yeah I think im going to order it .

    Much LOVE

  • Whoa!!! Thats a lotta product inside that damn tube! Wonder who the fuck invented the tube that causes all the product to be stuck in there!

  • was all this in a NEW bottle of the potion or was this already used and the wand couldn't reach the rest?

  • @KsstheStrs Already used and the wand couldn't reach. I believe I stated that in the video or in the more info section.

  • @kuuipo1207 you mentioned something about it being new, i was a bit confused. i have the newer one with the bent tip but i will definitely try this when it feels like its "empty".

  • @kuuipo1207 you said the only reason you used the applicator was because it was a new bottle & it hasnt yet been contaminated. so was this a NEW bottle FULL OF NEW product, or used left over product??

  • The music is distracting and obnoxious.

  • @sugartits091 Turn down/off your volume?

  • it took 3:31 to get to the actual like video!

  • Thank you so much! I bet they'll have a heart attack too at UD when they see this :)

  • iii looove ur channel! :)

  • OMG i can't believe how much of the potion was still in there!

  • Hey, I am a big fan by the way, but there is a better way to store the UDPP once you get it all out of the tube. Storing it in those travel bottles will allow it to dry up...sooooo, go and get an empty lip gloss pen tube and put it in there. Its air tight and then you can just apply it with the brush tip anytime you need to use it. Just thought i would let you know. keep up the good work and keep those tutorials coming! ;)

  • my name is brittany cool :D

  • What about the smaller version of it? I have the Alice in Wonderland palette and I think always use the primer.

  • LOL Urban Decay should take a look on YouTube at this XD Thank you so much for clip :) i'm thinking of buying it.

  • what,so you actually used a new bottle?There must be less product in a used one though.ub Should Really Change the shape of the bottle.

  • great video!! :]

  • I could not believe how much product was in mine! I opened it up after no more would come out on the applicator & found enough product to fill up an empty carmex jar.

  • that is a lot of potions!!!!!

  • good video xx :) xxx

  • OMG you save SO much prodcut from doing that! thankyou so much!

  • I seem to be the only one who literally couldn't stand the music . . . I had to mute the video. :b very good, though, thanks for showing us this, I'll have to do it to my UDPP. It would have been nice if you had started with an "empty" bottle, though, so we could see how much is in there after you think it's empty. (:

  • ub insists on keep producing in that bottle shape and it's so stupid

  • There is so much extra product!

  • FYI, new primer potion just came out

  • Comment removed

  • atencion mexico

    contamos con este producto

  • I would suggest a glass container, like from an old paint pot. Plastic jars will make it dry out faster.

  • I like the music at the end! Except for the cussing haha :P

  • excellent idea im totally doing that. also im diggin the music in this video!

  • Ok Thanks! x

  • I've heard that de-bottling the primer makes it dry up..is that true? x

  • @clairyfarey depends how air tight the container is that you put it into after. So just get a good airtight one and it would be fine.

  • Not necessarily, if you keep it in a glass container its not likely to dry up especially if you keep it sealed when not in use x

  • love this.

    and they def. do that weird packaging so us girls and guys have to go back in a month and buy more.

  • i just did this today! omg so much product is left. thanks for the tip :)

  • OMG!!!

    that's still a lot of decay potion.

    THANK YOU so much! now i would know how to save mine when i think it's gon be done.

  • thank GOD i found this before throwing mine away, i was just about to, then i did this, it was almost full!! thank you SO SO SO much!!

  • fo real ive just watched about 3 or more vids on depoting the stuff, why dont they just put it in a cute jar!!!!!?!lol

  • UDPP been out for such a long time and they're still sticking with the shonky packaging. sigh.

    thanks for the vid

  • they now have slanted wands so that helps quite a bit but still not all of it. i guess that was their idea of an improvement.

  • I buy mine at Ulta. Thanks for the tutorial. :)

  • Where Can You Buy The Urban Decay Primer Potion?

  • sephora

  • or sephora

  • was that bottle full when you started?!?!?!

  • WOW . . . . . . .You could Prime an entire face with that amount . . .Thats nuckin futz dude

  • it looks liek cookie dough. i kinda wanna eat it =/ ARRGH

  • WOW I cannot believe it!!!! i just tried this and there was a TON of this stuff left in the bottle!!! I honestly thought I had used it all up as I use it all the time! But i got a huge amount out of my bottle!

    Thanks for the trick!!!!

  • omg i think my eyes popped out of my head at 4:56. wow

  • I love my UDPP so i followed this tut....I found it easier to cut the bottle right in half (from top to bottom) instead of cutting it into 3 parts and i found that there is indeed alot of UDPP left over i just cut it in half that way i could get every nook and cranny :D <3 this tut tyvm!

  • wont it dry out in that travel container since it is not air tight?

  • Good heavens!!!!!!!!

  • I had two spare bottles, and tried out the instructions you said in this video today. I had MORE than enough to fit into my container (I even had to trash some, I was disappointed xD). This video has saved me, like, $40! Yipee.

  • i just did everything u said to do and now i have a lovely lil pot full of primer potion!!! thankyou so much for sharing this with us :)

  • My eyes are wide like no other! That's a crap load of product!!

    I SWEAR the tube inside was straight. I SWEAR I read that somewhere. I guess I didn't. xD

    I am totally going to try this later, haha.

  • i just had a heart attack

    thats a shit load left over.

  • They've revised the wand to an angled tip so you can get the rest of the product out of the bottle now.

  • 10 bucks says there's still the same amount of product left in there with the bent wand. A bent wand isn't going to get into that bottom section. And all it'll do to the top section, is push it around. They need to change the entire package. I could've bent the wand myself if I thought it would really help. lol :)

  • No doubt. I cannot believe how much is trapped in that bottle within the crevasses! I bet they'll change the bottle soon enough. The product is so great it would be sad for them to lose customers over the packaging hassle. The bottle is cute but it's a little top heavy so it always falls over in my makeup tray. It's due for a change fosho. :) Thanks for this video!

  • Yeah, really. Truth be told, I actually prefer UDPP over TFSI, but I'm tired of supporting UD when they can't support their customers my doing a simple redesign of the product bottle. :)

  • Ive heard from all over that a squeezy tube will be released for holiday 2009!

  • That's been rumored for a couple of years.

  • @stolenfaeriechild

    releases holiday 2010

  • wow thats alot left

  • hey you....whats going on girl? Your vids are awesome and I love how you don't act like your shit don't stink...know what I mean?..anyhow its easier to depot your udpp by taking out the rubber stopper and heating it up in the mic for about a min and 1/2 and tapping it out it works better and no cutting needed and guarenteed you'll love it!!! Try it and let me know how it is!! thx

  • OMG!! You are the absolute bomb!!! I just did a travel size bottle the same way and I had no idea there was that much primer potion that I was missing!!! The potion is wonderful, but I agree the packaging sucks!!!

  • what song is that?

  • btw i mean the first one soz x

  • Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

  • dum dilly by the black eyed peas

  • If you take the sponge cover off of the end of eyeshadow applicators that you can buy in little multi-packs (I found some in SAFORA/ULTA), you'll find the perfect little mini-scraper that can get into the corners/edges/crevaces.

  • does the primer dry out in the little pot??

  • Enkore said that his dried out in the sample jar.

  • after putting the primer in another pot. what to use to apply to your eye area?????

  • use a concealer brush it works awesome.

  • yur finger...

  • Thank you very much for that!!!!

    Saves me another £10 for a few months!

    Couldn't believe how much I was about to through away!!

    Urban Decay need to fix that design xP

  • Love your posts! I have learned so much. Just bought the Sin Potion and haven't used it yet. I wanted to ask, after you empty the potion in another jar, what brush do you use to put on your eye? Keep up the good work!!

  • My friend told me about this and I was definitely skeptical. I was like, "Damnn...you're so Asian, I love you" (I'm Asian too so don't worry, I'm not hating). and after watching your clip...wow. that is very useful information. I will definitely do it. thank you so much!

  • I'm actually not Asian. lol :)

  • Where can ifinda little spatchula or scraper like that?

  • SMART! i love this idea i will tell EVERYONE i know who uses this. glad someone thought about that... and why in the heck did urban decay make the inside of the bottle like that?!

  • where do you get that primer stuff anyways???

  • sephora or ulta

  • Thank you so much for this, after watching the video I grabbed a knife and a pill container and I filled the entire container with some tubes of potion that I thought were empty - you saved me so much money! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

  • wow, this is such a waste of money...and i just bought this..

  • This is making me SO MAD ! Haha. I wish I had known about this before! I missed my UDPP so much, but I felt like it was a waste of money because I didn't get much out of it. DARN THEM. I swear by it too, and I'm definitely going to go get two of them this upcoming Friday. The original, and Sin (: THANKS MUCH !

  • mmm peanut!! LOL THANKS FOR THE INFO!

  • I just bought some today! Thank you so much! :D

  • BLESS YOUR SOUL!!! =D u just saved me a lot of money!! =]

  • I just did this awhile ago, oh my LORD. there is sooooo much product in it!! When i watched this video, i literally ran to the bathroom and took mines out of the trash lol

    the hardest part was cutting the bottom part, i cut myself twice with the stupid knife. But yea, i'm definitely not buying that primer EVER again lol

  • DAMNIT! i JUST threw mine away!! :(

  • Does anyone know if putting the UDPP in a HIP Colortruth Cream Liner jar would work? Or would it dry out? Wwould the jar be big enough to hold all the product of a new UDPP? Thanks :)

  • INSANE! I cannot believe how much product is left in the tube!! ...Thanks for sharing w/us! =)

  • As I am watching this, I am doing this to 2 of my Urban Decay potion primers right now and I cannot believe my eyes =(

  • would it DRY OUT if i put it in an old MAC concealer or mac eyeshadow container?, cus thts where i put mine. nd yeahh pls give me input thanks (:

  • if you watch enkoremakeups videos he shows you how his udpp dried up after a little while in a NON-air tight jar. I bought the lip pen he recommended with a brush tip applicator which is air-tight and prevents contamination of the product. I suggest you try that.

  • Just bought my first bottle of primer today and i will sure as hell do this! Thanks!!

  • wow seriously thank u for making this video, now it will last me longer and save me a lot of money!!!! ur awesome! keep it up!

  • WOW! I want to thank you for making this video! I've had the primer potion for a few weeks now and when I got it I was like dang, there's not that much in here,but, boy was I wrong! I couldn't believe how much you got out, especially out of the bottom part. So I decided to go for it. I had a little trouble cutting the bottom, but it still work really well. I couldn't find a jar, so I had to use a tin cadle holder and tin foil, but then I found an old empty makeup jar, and that worked better. THX

  • i just tap mine against a table a couple of times, and it goes into the middle (without the wan inside tho.)

  • i just cut mine open and OMG ! soooo much product. lol the trick to keeping it from drying out is not putting it in a container like that one ^ i used a sample eye cream jar and it was full to the brim! :):):)

  • OMG!!! im so glad you did this video...

    the amount of product that is left is sickening its like three times what you use when you think its run out...

    good way to get people to be constantly buying more i guess..BUT NOT IF THEY SEE THIS VIDEO :)

  • yea its alot of product that goes into it but dries out like 3 days later and i even put it in a tight no air jar!!!

  • or you can put under hot water works too

  • Wow, isn't that something. This is exactly why I use Too Faced Shadow Insurance. Check it out!

  • I cut mine up today, and I was able to fill a whole concealer pot from MAC that I still had for some reason!!! Wow, I was amazed at how MUCH was in there. I won't have to buy this for another year!!!!

  • i heard it dried out after a while when you put it into a jar?

  • thats because ur suppossed 2 put it in an air tight jar

  • Well, it will dry out if you put it into a plasitc jar. You're supposed to use a glass jar. It keeps the moisture in. That's why you see cream/gel eye lineres are always in glass jars. So, yeah.. If you put it in a glass jar, it shouldn't dry out, and all should be good :))

  • Good advice, I use a smaller baby food jar that I have cleaned out and sanitized. One of the many recycling ideas for those baby food jars :)

  • I did this to my UDPP and omg I had so much left over! Shame on Urban Decay for ripping me off!!!

  • I forget the site it was, but in the info about this product, it says the inside is a straight tube. So they must have changed it.....

  • I remember seeing this video so long ago, and was always looking for a small pot like you have to put the primer into. I figured out that an eye contact case was the perfect fit! And they are super easy and cheap to find.

  • a tip from u all put the UPDD on a lip gloss emty tube it wont dry trust me

  • how where do u get that Primer Potion??? i realy want some

  • you can get it at sephora for about $17

  • didnt it dry out after putting it in a pot?

  • I've heard some people saying it does dry out.... I depotted mine about 4 weeks ago and I put it in a little 5g jar...hasn't dried out yet :-)

    it really is a TON of product in the tube.

  • hey what store do you buy dat urban decay primer potion thingy??

  • you can be it online or at sephora or ulta

    (:

  • Thanks!!! I'm going to try it! I knew there had to be a way to get more out!!! YIPEEE!!!

  • O.k. that's attractive : (

  • It would not matter if it was the org applicator or not as the product had already been contaminated by the used wand. So all you did was contaminate the new appliacator. just saying but thatnks for the tutorial!

  • i did this today, SO MUCH PRODUCT! i didn't really believe it until i did it myself

  • I didn't think it'd be so much product there. you made it look so easy too!

  • I really like your style and way you explain things. I am 37 years old and I am just getting into makeup and how to do it. You rock!

  • i thought so there was sumthin dodgy bout the primer potion! i used it a few times and after that not much used to get on the stick thing....il try that thanx :oD x

  • how come one doesn't cut it "lengthwise". Would be considerable easier to see what's inside!

  • I bet they do it on purpose so you go and buy even more... thanks so much I just got mine yesterday I'm gonna do this when I get a nice little jar.

  • what a terrible, ridiculous container design, huh?

  • wow 4:15 really shows how much is left in there! UD definitely needs to change the shape of the primer

  • Couldnt you also do watch MichellePhan does with lips glosses to make them last longer?

  • but then it'll settle all to the bottom.

  • u put it upside down

    ive tried both ways, the hot water way is much easier and a lot less messy

  • I do that for tmy liquid foundation tube. When it seems empty, i open it and i can use the rest of the foundation maybe 4times! but for the primer, i didn't know that you wasted so many product! it's almost 1/5 of the little bottle!!!

  • DUDE that is A LOT of product!!!

  • What a shocking amount you would throw away without even knowing!

    Such a waste

  • Here is a super-easy and longer lasting way to to keep UDPP. It's even better than putting it in a sample jar. watch?v=Mkzonbf-3Hs

  • This is a good thing that you showed this. The manufacturers of Urban Decay made the bottle like that on purpose because, unless you knew there was still stuff left inside the product, you would think that it was all used up and therefore you buy more needlessly.

    Consumers like us need to write to them or something, because this is equivalent to CHEATING.

  • wow so many people are doing this and its a cool idea. but urban decay should just make a bigger version of their mini primer which is in a straight tube. lol

  • I also cut open pump bottles if it has a thicker product in it. Example: I buy Olay face wash. I bash the crap out of the bottle on the counter so the pump can get to the product. After I can no longer get product out I cut it open lengthwise. You get at least 3 or 4 washes out of it.

  • where do you get that primer potion!! i want some

  • is the bottle you used a new one?? or one you have already used? cuz there was so much stuff it in!

  • it was new

  • A few tips on depotting UDPP: (1) Use a airtight glass jar--this keeps the product from drying out; (2) Sanitize everything-the knife, the glass jar and even the outside of the UDPP bottle prior to depotting (3) Store in a cool, dry place. I've known several youtubers who've done this and their primer has been working beautifully after depotting!

  • if its depotted you don't have to throw it away in 2 to 4 months... when it in the normal package, yes.. because you use the applicator then stick it back in the tube, then bacteria grows. but if you use a clean brush when its depotted then it's more like a paint pot from mac.

    just thought i'd add that so no one wastes it!

    K!mF!ght

  • I hate the stupid bottle too, the sample you get with the deluxe pallet is easier to use than the full size bottle. It costs a friggin fortune too!

  • I do the same thing to all my lotion bottles and face creams :)
