The most perfect eye base

I have this paint pot in painterly. I got it around one month ago and haven't touched another eye base. I just really love this one so much!

I've heard about these paint pots for years and definitely in the painterly shade as well but the price and mac not being easily accessible to me always put me off. I did buy mine second hand but only a tiny little bit had been taken out to swatch.

The packaging of this is nice and simple, just like mac products are. It's a clear glass jar with a black screw top lid. You look at this and think, hmmm, it's kind of small for the price but I think this will last the longest time. I've been using it for a month and mine only has a slight dip.

I jus use my finger tips to apply and blend this. It's so creamy so it blends out so easily and it is also opaque. This particular shade pretty much matches my skin on my lids so it looks super natural but manages to cancel out all the little veins and discolouration so I have a smooth canvas for eyeshadow. Obviously, this wouldn't be the case if you have darker skin but this would still be great for eyeshadow to sit upon and there are probably darker shades available.

I really like how this helps to prevent eyeshadow creasing as well as creating a smooth base. If I was comparing this to the Maybelline colour tattoos, this comes up far superior. I find the tattoos can be a bit dry and can sometimes drag on the skin plus they don't really help to prevent creasing.

I also think this would make a perfect look by itself, f you wanted a bare lid and massive lashes or something like that.

I can't actually imagine running out of this but when I do eventually, I will definitely look to re purchase it.

midas' touch

I use this in indianwood which is a bronze/gold colour

I apply with a brush over my foundation/concealer.

I decided to purchase this as my fluidline was always smudging, I have oily skin and this is perfect for keeping my fluidline on,

I have had this product for over a year and it's still going strong even though I use it daily.

it does smudge easily when touched so try not to rub your eyes etc when using

Tips: don't use too much as it thicken/ layers up easily

MAC Paint Pot

The best way to describe this is lipstick for your eyes, creates an amazing base for eyeshadow to adhere to and remains on all day. fantastic to be used on its own or as a mixing medium.

Painterly.

I bought this product in Painterly. It is fantastic. I use it every time I put on eyeshadow, and sometimes just by itself, My eyeshadow stays put and lasts soooo much longer with this. Everything seems to go on so much smoother. I love this product, and really want to get it in more colours/shades.

Tips: I put this on with my finger usually, much like one does with concealer. But you can use a brush if you prefer.

Use It Every Day

I am a massive fan of the paint pot in the colour "Painterly". I use this every day as my eyeshadow base and it never creases or fades. I've had mine for almost a year now and I'm still not even close to the bottom so its definitely value for money too!

Tips: Use it as an eye shadow primer

Paint pod

I love using this as a base for my eyes before applying the eye shadow on. It makes the shadow sit in place and it also helps layer the eye shadow for more contrast if needed. I love using this when going out because it won't move my eye shadow and it will remain until the end of the night!!!

MAC paint pot reveiw

love using this product as a base for my eyeshadows, works as an amzing primer to keep the shadows and liner on all day instead of fading out over the day! perfect to use when youve got a long day at work or where ever and dont have time for touch ups, or a night out!

Tips: a little goes a long way- so be careful to not take too much out of the pot as you dont wanna waste that high end product! money does grow on trees!

Perfect for priming eyes for shadow

I use the shade soft ochre as an eye primer under eye shadow daily. I find the colour a good match to my nc15 skin. This does not crease on me and I find it lasts all day looking the way it did when I first applied. This products only downfall is that it can sometimes appear uneven or patchy when applied.
