Stila TAFFY Prime Pot Swatches and Review

It's a total win when you can score a sample of a product that you've been wanting to try.  With a recent Sephora purchase I was able to add in the Stila Prime Pot in Taffy

What Sephora has to say about Stila Prime Pots:

What it is:
A water-resistant eyeshadow primer that delivers flawless, creaseless eyeshadow wear all day and night.

What it does:
This innovative formula is crease-resistant and extends eyeshadow wear all day. When used as a base, Prime Pot's unique polymers adhere to eyeshadow and create impeccably smooth lids, keeping excess oil at bay. These lightweight matte eyeshadow primers are universally flattering for all skintones.
Size: 0.14 oz




 (swatched thickly, sheered out)

Taffy (pale pink) is a great base for shadows, or to wear alone.  It smooths out the eye and grips your shadows with an iron fist.  It's a little bit thicker and tackier than primers from Urban Decay and Too Faced, but dries rather quickly.  I found that applying with my finger worked out better than using a firm brush.  (in the swatch above, you can see how in the middle it's still a little wet on the thick swatch).   I didn't need another primer under this product, which was nice.  When I use MAC Paint Pots I always have to apply my UDPP first.

Stila Prime Pots are available in two shades, Taffy and Caramel.   After my sample of Taffy runs out, I will absolutely go and purchase a full size.

Stila Prime Pots retail for $20 each (for the full size) and are available at Sephora and the Stila website.

  1. Looks like a creamy and consistent formula. I think it will do a wonderful job as a base.
