I took a quick glance at MAC website and Paint Pot is now referred as Pro Longwear Paint Pot. All these while I know these pots as “Paint Pot” but Layin’ Low is labeled under Pro Longwear Paint Pot. The reason why I chose this duo is because Bare Study is the lightest shade available but unfortunately it was paired in a pack with Layin’ Low. I managed to take my sweet time choosing the right pack with the right shade for me and so I went home with MAC Paint Pot Bare Study and Layin’ Low. MAC did indeed had a box of Paint Pot on clearance. I made a beeline to MAC right after stopping by Bobbi Brown. I knew I would be going to the annual Estée Lauder warehouse sales so I hold on to my purchase at the store, hoping MAC would throw in a few pots at the sale event.
Two of the most mentioned Paint Pot is Painterly and Soft Ochre, which unfortunately is not the two that I’m about to talk about today. I don't need to apply a lot and it would take a lottt of uses before it was all gone.I’ve been wanting to get MAC Paint Pot ever since I heard about it from various Youtube beauty gurus. The pot is a good size and the product lasts a long time. It makes my trickier eyeshadows (colourful, bold shades, shades with less pigment etc) a lot easier to work with and look a lot better than if I was using regular concealer or a more thinner base.
When eyeshadow is applied straight onto this base, I find it makes them look more pigmented and easier to blend. It's my go to when I go out or want my makeup to look good for a long time. This makes my eyeshadow last all day without creasing or fading or smudging. I just set it with a bit of powder and I'm good to go! I like using it as well when I'm not wearing any eyeshadow for that reason. It has good coverage and covers any veins or redness that I have on my eyes. (I'll usually go over it with a sponge, quickly, to make sure it's all blended). I use a fluffy concealer brush and it doesn't take me long to buff this out. I don't need to apply a lot and it's super easy to blend out. Soft ochre has warmer undertones and painterly has cooler undertones. I believe they have two shades for eyeshadow bases - painterly and soft ochre. I do think there are dupes for this as an eyeshadow primer for a more affordable price, but this one works the best out of the ones I've tried. I use it as an eyeshadow base and I highly recommend it.
