First one was applied on MAC Paint Untitled as eyeshadow base, for the second I used the MAC Paint pot Rollickin´ as base. For giving you an impression of the difference between MAC Paints and MAC Paint pots I would like to show you two green eye make up looks. Two products that are constantly compared to one another are the Maybelline Color Tattoos and MAC Paint Pots. I also have my eye on Groundwork, which is a MAC classic that I’ve shockingly never owned.Cream eye shadows are great to use as a base for intensifying any powder shadow and to prevent your eyelids from creasing. I loved it dearly and used it to its last breath, and I will undoubtedly repurchase it once I’m done with Camel Coat. Painterly was the first Paint Pot I ever owned or used. Check out MAC’s official page here to see the colors available. However, their main lineup always includes the shades Painterly (a nude flesh color), Bare Study (a pearly beige), Soft Ochre (a nude yellowy color) and Groundwork (a neutral soft brown). For example, Camel Coat is now discontinued as is both Constructivist and Quite Natural, two darker brown colors I used to own. The thing with Paint Pots, which is really the only annoying thing about them, is that MAC likes to shuffle them in and out of their lineup. However I used to own several more in different colors. Right now I only have one in my collection – Camel Coat, a cool, slightly greyish nude which is pictured in this post. Read this: MAC Uninterrupted eyeshadow – a rediscovery! They also come in different colors and finishes. (I never notice much creasing from 8 – 10 hours of wear, but anything after 10 – 12 hours is fair game.) They are also generally quite creamy and easy to apply with brushes or fingers. Well, nine times out of ten my shadows apply smoothly and lock into place for long-wear with one of these babies underneath. But I’ve always come back to my good ‘ole Paint Pots. That is saying something! I’ve tried a lot of products in my time, including other eye primers like the Urban Decay Primer Potion and the Too Faced Shadow Insurance.
I’ve probably never been as dedicated to one particular product as I have been to the MAC Paint Pots. Primarily, I use Paint Pots as eye primers before I apply powder shadows, and this is something I’ve been doing since I started wearing makeup years and years ago. These are just great, reliable little products that I just can’t be without. This is one of those rare cases where I agree with nearly all the claims a brand makes about their product (obviously I can’t attest to the first two claims).
