(L-W Painterly, Rubenesque, Let’s Skate!) ^ Notice how pretty and sparkly Let’s Skate is in the swatch!?! (The glitter is easier to see in the swatches below.) This one is quite opaque, it’s not as smooth as the others (due to all the glitter), but will still cover any discolouration quite nicely. It is an almost white base jammed packed with loads, and I mean LOADS of beautiful multicoloured glitter.

The most recent paint pot I’ve purchased is called Let’s Skate a “pale pink with pearl” as MAC describes. It’s the smoothest paint pot I own, and always looks great no matter now rushed the application was. It’s absolutely gorgeous on it’s own, or paired up with a sparkly gold patted on top. Rubenesque is described as “golden peach with gold pearl”. Not too long after getting Painterly, I was gifted Rubenesque from my mom. I apply with a clean finger, to warm the product up a bit, and it blends out flawlessly. Instead of using it for colour, I use it as a primer of sorts before applying any eyeshadow to make them last all day without creasing. It’s great at making your veins/discolouration around the eye area disappear.

Painterly is a very opaque light “nude beige” colour, and not too different from my skin tone.

I’ve watched many youtube beauty gurus proclaiming this as a “holy grail” eye product.

(L-R: Let’s Skate!, Rubenesque, Painterly) So far I’ve only collected three of these suckers, but I’m sure it won’t be long before I add more to my collection. The matte shades were lightly creamy to slightly stiffer to work with, and with the stiffer ones, I preferred using a brush to get the initial product out of the jar and then use a fingertip to furiously diffuse the product.Today I’ve got a review of one of my favourite makeup products: MAC (Pro Longwear) Paint Pots. The matte finish is most consistent in performance and tended to perform better than the shades with some level of shimmer.

(Plus, it is rare that products actually go as long as 12, let alone 16, hours without some sign(s) of wear.) I don't recall this product having a specific, 24-hour wear claim before (and my prior reviews don't mention it, just that it was 'long-wearing'), so ratings did change for certain shades as a result.īrowse all of our MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot swatches. With 24-hour wear claims like this, I wear for as long as I'm awake, but I don't want to sleep in makeup, so I extrapolate based on the state of it at 16-hours. The wear of the shimmer shades was shorter, too, and there was often a bit of creasing within 10 hours of wear. I didn't find that they applied any better using brushes over fingertips or vice versa. They were best applied in thin layers and built up, but the results were inconsistent and varied a lot between shades. The shimmery finish, particularly more pearlescent/metallic, were significantly more emollient than the matte shades, and this led to sheerer coverage that often applied unevenly and was difficult to apply with precision. The matte shades were typically semi-opaque to opaque in coverage and longer-wearing-12 to 14 hours before showing a bit of fading-but were varying degrees of blendable (related to how creamy the initial texture was). The matte shades were lightly creamy to slightly stiffer to work with, and with the stiffer ones, I preferred using a brush to get the initial product out of the jar and then use a fingertip to furiously diffuse the product. The formula is supposed to be 'highly pigmented, long-wearing, blendable' and can be used as either an 'eye primer' or as a 'cream shadow.' The brand says it's supposed to wear for '24 hours' without flaking or creasing.
