REVIEWS OF MAC COSMETICS PAINT POT PRO

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a Pro Longwear duck? Oh MAC, you silly goose (duck?)… a Paint Pot by any other name is still as long-wearing!

I’ve had Rubenesque for about a year and it’s doing really fine. Benefit and MAC’s offerings are more refined, to my eye.Īlso, I should note that I store these upside down, with the lid sealed tight and none of the shades I have have dried out.

While I am a fan of the Maybelline Color Tattoos, I do find most of the shades to be too shimmery. It’s probably tied with Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadows as my favorite, since they honestly do not budge. MAC Paint Pots are definitely in my top 3 favorite cream shadow formulas. I got Rubenesque first because I couldn’t resist its golden lure, lol. I’m quite happy with all of my shades so far. L-R: Bare Study, Painterly, Groundwork, Constructivist, Rubenesque Here, for example, I’ve used MAC’s Da Bling, which is a really pale & bright pink shadow.Īnd here, I have swatches of these three with the other two older ones I have: I really love how it works with shadows, since it kind of tones the bright colors down. I find it lighter than I thought it would be. It’s “a metallic brown with red pearl,” so it’s rather warm. I think this is best to use if you want the shadows to be “true to pan” and find the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk to be too creamy.Ĭonstructivist is another one I’ve been eyeing for a while. Here it is under some Sigma eyeshadows (Grasp, Notre Dame, Versailles). It’s a bit drier in texture than other paint pots, but I really love that it’s matte and really gives you a bare canvas to work on. It’s described as a “nude beige,” though I find that it has cool purple undertones to it. Painterly is one of the paint pots that I really wanted to try since it’s matte (cream finish!) and very neutral. I’ve used it here, under a cool, silvery taupe shadow, though I think I would use it by itself and smudge a darker color along the lash line next time. It’s not as dark as it looks in the pan and actually looks really light and doesn’t alter the actual shadow color all that much, even if it’s a light shade. Groundwork is a “mid-tone neutral taupe.” Though it is classified as a “frost,” it is not as shimmery as my other foil paint pots ( Bare Study, Rubenesque, Constructivist). I will get into each shade more, with a closer look at the shades used as a base under shadow. I usually use paint pots as a base, so I almost always top it off with eyeshadow. L-R: Painterly, Groundwork, Constructivist I originally wanted Stormy Pink, but it was out of stock so I got Groundwork instead.

I knew I wanted to get a light, matte base, a dark neutral one, and another neutral matte. Though, of course, that is to be expected! In any case, I picked fairly neutral ones. I’d actually argue that there is a bit of logic behind these choices. Today, I introduce you to Painterly, Groundwork, and Constructivist. 😀 I got three paint pots and a lipstick.

Sarie shot an event for MAC so she could get me some makeup. I was able to get my hands on three more MAC paint pots so I thought it was time to make another Makeup Inventory post.
