I've only ever used one of the MAC paint pots and it's a staple in my makeup bag. I use Layin' Low as it's a nice neutral shade that effortlessly evens out the tone of my natural skin color. I...

As much as these paint pots are widely lauded in the makeup community, I'm afraid these don't work for me. When I first started wearing makeup I had such a struggle with eyeshadow creasing...

One of my all time. I currently own 3 of them and I love them all equally. Use it every single day for my eye makeup and it works like magic. It prolongs the wear of any eyeshadow. For more...

I was dubious about this pot format, since the pot liners from MAC always seem to dry out and become useless quite fast. But the Paint formula seems to withstand the air exposure better. I use Bare...

Paint pots are a dream! I have Bare Study, Quite Natural and Painterly. Bare study is my least used one as I find that it dries my eyes out a bit, and to be honest I don't like the shimmer. I know...

I have one in Bare Study and Painterly- Painterly isn't good on its own, it's best underneath your eye shadows. Very good as a base though, as long as you don't mind your eye shadows taking on a...

I have the paint pot in Fresco rose, which is a versatile, soft, slightly shimmery, pink. I like the concept and the shade range, but I think MAC could improve the formula of this product. I find...
