Expert's opinion: "One of my favorite components to my daily beauty routine is the MAC Paint Pot. The product can be used either for color or for priming the eyelids before application of eyeshadow; I use it most often for the second instance, and it works wonders." - says Amber, the beauty bunny What It Is: Paint Pot is a cream eyeshadow in dozens of fabulous colors. What It Does: It allows you for easier blending and adds more depth to your eye. Product Description: A highly pigmented eye colour that goes on creamy but dries to an intense, vibrant finish. The next generation of a popular M·A·Cformula, Paint Pots maintains all the intense traits of its inspiration. Long-wearing, colourfast. Creates seamless coverage without weight or caking. Blends smoothly over the lids. Cream-based, can be mixed with M·A·C shadows and liners. Available in matte and pearl formulas. My Comments: MAC is in their third collection of Paint Pot and I love them even more. All in all, MAC has improved the formulas over the past months making their newer releases even creamier and has better staying power. Use the shimmery ones to give a beautiful pop of color and add fabulosity to your eye makeup. Also, a little secret… the nude beige color matches the skin tone perfectly, so you can also use this as a concealer. Average Price: This can be bought at nordstrom.com for only $16.50. 7 Steps for Creating a Perfect Smoky Eye Look…
