MAC Bare Canvas Paint vs. Urban Decay Primer Potion Review

Here I'll be comparing bare canvas and UDPP! I found that UDPP works best on me, but others find the bare canvas longer lasting.

The MAC paint is showing more sheer because you applied it before the video. But when you aplied the blue eyeshadow on the Urban Decay Primer Potion you aplied the primer in the video. Thats why the U.D. is showing more what do you call it .. more true 2 colour. Thats just a little thing i spotted out ...

well, like any good scientist would, I tried this again :). This time I put the UDPP on first (like 2 secs before the BC) and then the bare canvas. then I tried what I did again with Nocturnelle (a purple MAC e/s) and I got the exact same results.

I happens in the video is actually what happens in real life. When I want to subdue my eyeshadow look, I put Bare canvas on my eyelid to bring down the color a little. if i want to play it up i use UDPP. thanks for your observation tho :)

I love this video, I have been trying to decide betweem MAC and UD....I now am going with the UD. Thanks a million!!

[dustbunnies77]

it's definitely the better all around choice IMO :)

I love your reviews, I think you are 1 of the best & your 1 of the 1st I come to for reviews,your not doing it to "show off your makeup collection" and you don't do it in a "rude way", you are very likeable, love what you do!

But can you get the hole product out of the UDPP because I mean it is a plastic bottle , right?

i have hooded eyelids and i used the MAC and i found that after aout 8 hours of wear my eyeshadow had started to crease, i do have slightly oily skin as is but i was told that the bare canvas would not crease annnnd it did. i also noticed that the colors dont pop as well. they show better just on my skin than the primer. so im not too happy about spending $21 on it!! i havent tried UDPP but hopefully its better!!

Urban decay's is more rougher. That's why is makes the makeup stay longer. MAC's is supposed to be more softer. Try blending really opposing eye-shadows on each of them, you'll see that MAC's works better. They're both good all around. So it really depends on what look you're going for, for choosing which primer/base to use.

great video, although Bare Canvas isnt intended to be a primer.Its a great base colour.

i like the urban decay but the bottle it comes in is crap it would be much more easier if it can be squeezed out instead than having to freaking cut it. they should freaking change the bottle

[krazy987654]

urban decay seems veryyyy needed lol i am going to buy some but it is like 16.00 or 17.00 dollars a bit pricey but probably worth it

[marlenelopez1991]

so mac creases

[kandie731]

i'd definetly go with the UDPP becuz the color appears more vibrant....thanks for the review :)

[chrissys31]

well actually udpp is a actually primer and a paint is a shadow thats why the udpp makes it pop more (im sure u know that by now!)

[melibee1484]

Very good comparison. I have been loyal to UD for a few years and was very curious about the MAC paint. This put an end to the curiosity.

Thanks dustbunnies

pretty good but UDPP is a primer and mac paint is not. two different products.
