If the eye makeup base is similar to your skin color, you can also use it to hide dark eye circles.





The main purpose of an eye makeup base is to help prevent eyeshadows from creasing( especially if you have oily eyelids) and make the eyeshadow colors more vibrant and lasting. It can also help prevent eyeliner from smudging or fading off.





You can apply eyeshadow base over your eyelid with a brush or just your ring finger.What is eye makeup base?
Eye make up base is what you put on your eyelid before you apply eye make up. Such as if you have a darker skin tone, it can help bring out the colour more in eye shadows. It can keep your eyeliner from smudging, etc.





BTW the term ';raccoon eyes'; actually means when your eye make up smears to the bottom of your eyes, such as mascara. Thus making you looking like a raccoon. =)
A base is put on underneath eyeshadow to make the color of the shadow more vibrant and long lasting.

I'm not sure what brand you're talking about, but it sounds like the stuff you put on your lids before you put on the darker colors
It is foundation but you put it on your eyes before putting eyeshadow on to make the eyeshadw stay on your eyelids longer.
