I was lying awake in bed the other night, nestled like the insomnia meat in the middle of an epic El Hub/Tabs snoring sandwich, when I thought, “It’s bad enough that El Hub snores, but when did Tabs start?”
As I lay there, large awake, I wondered a terrific lots of things…like are there breathe ideal strips for cats? and if there are, I bet they look pretty funny.

It occurred to me that maybe that’s what I could do when I grow up, be the innovator of Kitty breathe ideal Strips, because I still don’t know what I want to make with the rest of my life.
I started ticking off a list of things I know to be true. 1. Tabs loves gravy, 2. Nutella and asparagus taste horrible together, 3. the world really didn’t need a sequel to Honey…
I need to have dozed off somewhere around 3-4 in the morning, only to wake up a few hours later, a lot more than a little cranky and with zombie-fied eyes.

Some severe eye-brightening action was in order.
I grabbed my iphone (“Siri, remind me to research cures for insomnia!”) and peered into my makeup bag…
That’s when I saw it — make up For Ever’s new nude brightening Eye Prime ($22), the brand’s very first eye primer.
A magical brew of waxes and taking care of polymers that, according to MUFE, creates a smooth, long-lasting base upon which to apply other eye makeup products. The supposedly generally flattering nude shade (for every skin tone) is also meant to brighten while amplifying eye makeup colors and minimizing creasing, and it’s created to work with everything, from powder eyeshadows, to cream eyeshadows, liners, and generally the whole gamut of eye makeup deliciousness.
Well, hello, bright eyes.
Turn around, bright eyes… Every now and then I fall apart! and I need you a lot more tonight! and I need you a lot more than evuh!
(Sorry. Spontaneous ’80s sing-a-long moment.)

Anywho…I’ve been wearing Eye Prime for a few days now, but I wouldn’t exactly call us BFFs.
I like the silky smooth texture and lightweight consistency, but the “long-lasting” claim, forget it. At least not on my combination dry/oily lids. I get some pretty significant creasing around hours 5-6.
And while my eyeshadow colors do seem a little a lot more brilliant when I have it on, I also don’t discover much of a brightening effect. maybe a smidgen — like a thimble filled with brightness, when I could really use a bucket.
I love the idea of getting a good dose of eye brightening with my primer, but for now, I think I’ll stick to my tried-and-true NARS Pro-Prime.
