Hmmm
So I purchased the Twinkling Taupe and as soon as I got it I started playing around with it. At first I wasn't so crazy about it, it looked beautiful on its own but when I put some eye shadow over it, it looked blotchy and creasey. I was pretty sure it was user-error so I tried it the next day for work with some beautiful brown, neutral tone shades and I thought it made my eye shadow look stunning! The eye shadows I used have a very subtle shimmer but this made it super shimmery and really brightened my eyes! Best part was my eye shadow didn't crease up and stayed beautiful and bright all day!!

Twinkling Taupe
I love this primer. It is the perfect shade and it does make my shadows shimmery, and for the shimmery shadows - metallic. I love this. Thank you so much, elf.

Pleased I Purchased!
My daily go-to eye shadow is the Aqua Beauty Molten Liquid in Rose Gold but this one sounded worth trying. I ordered the color "Twinkling Taupe" and wore it yesterday and I am in love. I wore it alone (as the product description said you could do) and layered it in the center for more color pop and it did not budge all day. It gave me the exact look I was going for, a soft, frosty wash of color, dewy and natural. I have not tried it to transform regular eye shadow, I doubt I will as I love the look I achieved wearing it alone and really only wear the above-mentioned Molten Liquid shadows which are already shimmery on their own. This particular color is just gorgeous, a mauve/lilac/taupe with a soft glitter effect. Mostly I noticed a frosty shimmer that was soft and subtle. If you like soft shimmery shades, give this color a try!

Not recommended!
I tried this product out for just a couple days and have experienced an allergic reaction to it. I have NEVER ever had an allergic reaction to makeup before and I have tried a ton of new products from all sorts of brands. I use a lot of ELF makeup as well and never had reactions... this product has made my eyelids swollen and red and itchy. I am on day 3 of swollen eyes and not wearing makeup to help relieve the reaction. I am not sure what ingredient in this product would cause such a reaction but I would not recommend to anyone who has any sensitivity.... or anyone at all.
I never write reviews and I do love a lot of elf products but this one really did not agree with me.

Subtle but Effective
I bought this on a whim, in all 3 colors and I really like it. I use it under the Long-Lasing Lustrous eyeshadow typically with the Intense Ink liquid liner. My eyes water quite a bit, especially when I wear my contacts, and this seems to help a lot. Most times, unless the watering has been significant, my eye makeup makes it to the end of the day, which is rare for me.
Yes, the visual effect is subtle, but that's what I'm going for anyway. I can use it under my shadow during the day and not look too "made up" for work. It also intensifies the shadow so I don't have to go over it as many times to get a deeper color. I'm ordering another set of 3 because you never know when/if elf will discontinue it or one of the colors.
I apply it with the included applicator then blend with a cream shadow brush - easy and effective.

Pretty disappointing
I know elf doesnt let you return products because of their low prices, but i feel like in this case they should. this product is not worth $1. its not a primer, its not an eyeshadow, its a sheer flaky mess. Doesnt work well as a base or an accent.

If you're on the fence, just walk away...
This was a real disappointment. I was very excited to try this product out, however it really makes no noticeable difference. It's not really a primer, it's not really a shadow - it's just a glittery substance to subtly pigment your lid.

Beautiful and Subtle
It’s perfect for those of us who want a nice shimmer effect that’s not too much, or if you want to wear it under a bland eyeshadow for a pop of shimmer. I highly recommend this.

Does this leave a shimmer, or can you see the glittery flecks?
This primer leaves a silver type shimmer:)

I have never used an primer, but I am interested - so you put eye shadow on first then the primer ?
Primer first before the eyeshadow. :) Primers are good because it helps your eyeshadow last longer and gives you a good color pay off from the eyeshadow
