MAC PAINTERLY PAINT POT REVIEW

MAC PAINTERLY PAINT POT is a creamy formulae, perfect for long wear. There is no caking, no creasing. Gives a great coverage. Mix it with any eyeshadow and wear it, your make-up is done!

If you are looking for a creamy eyeshadow base, then painterly is just for you. It has got a light pink undertone. You can top it up with any eye shadows. It simply acts like an eye primer. But actually i love it more than any other eye primers. Its so smooth and silky.

It glides on your eyelids smoothly. The colors show off much well when you use painterly as your eyeshadow base. The eyshadow applied on top of it, stays longer after you have applied painterly. Eyeshadow does not fade or the eyeliner does not smudge, when you have primed your eyelids well by applying painterly.

The product is going to last atleast for 6 months, even if you use it regularly. And one secret, you can use it as a concealer too, to cover any black hideous spots and patches or blemishes.

Its expensive, almost US $ 17 for a pack of 5 g or 0.17 fl oz. Now the disadvantage is that, the paint pot does not contain anything to scoop some product out of it. So either you need to use your fingers, eventually getting fingerprints all over the product, or you will need to use a spatula or a brush. Another thing is that, since its creamy, whenever you apply it with a brush, it makes your brush untidy, and you will need to clean the brush after you have used the paint pot, everytime. It dries very quick, and once it dries, you cant blend it properly then, so you need to be very fast!

Overall a great stuff! I would recommend it to be used as an eyeshadow base.
