I didn’t bother again, not that I could ever master lining my eyes with a brush anyway. It dried out within a week, even though I followed the sales assistant’s instructions to the letter and replaced the lid as soon as I loaded my eyeliner brush. I was put off by their gel eyeliner (also housed in a glass pot). The one with a base comes out more intense.I’ve never owned a Mac Paint Pot, even though they’ve been around for donkey’s years and are considered a bit of a cult classic. 🙂įollowing is a swatch of eyeshadow with and without MAC Paint pot base. You would be surprised how it it vanishes your blemishes.

😛 Just apply it on your blemishes and then apply foundation (preferably mineral). You may use painterly to cover your blemishes as well.The product is good enough to last you good 6-7 months if you use it every single day.I apply it with my ring finger but you may also use a synthetic brush for it.I even apply it on my lower lash line when I am doing a smokey look.I am good to go without any worry of my liner running or shadow fading. I apply painterly all over my lid, then I give a wash of soft brown colour from Maybelline Chai Latte Quad all over the lids and then apply a waterproof liner and mascara. Even during these harsh summer months when my lids tend to get a little oily, it is showing an excellent performance.Paint Pot is a cream based product and it dries out to a beautiful matte finish within seconds of applying it. Even if you have oily lids, MAC Paint pots work as an excellent primer for your eye shadows.My eye shadows last long for the entire day when applied on top of painterly.It does not crease and it does not cake.

The colours come out more intense with painterly as a base.

It makes an excellent primer for your eye shadows.

It is creamy and slides on your lids easily.
