This will probably last me for years to come. Its been over six months now since I bought it and I still have so much product left, its insane. I love to wear this all over my lid with a dark color in the crease, its easy, fast and very pretty. It's such a beautiful color and its perfect to use as a base for you're eyeshadows or as an ''all over the lid'' color :) Very little time to work with the product.Why am I so obsessed with this paint pot called Bare Study by MAC Cosmetics? I just can't get enough of this product. If you have dry lids – using this will not be easy. Will only come off when makeup remover is used.

Brilliant for people with oily eyelids.

Little bit of the product goes a long way. Swatch of Painterly in natural light mac painterly paint pot review eye swatches Also if using a brush, a lot of the product clings to the brush and it has to be cleaned thoroughly after each use. Otherwise it is extremely difficult to use. But if you are like me and have super dry eyelids this product can only be applied on top of some eye cream or moisturizer. It is excellent for oily eyelids, because on application it becomes very matte and dry.

Once on the skin, it has to be blended in immediately and one needs to be very quick while working with this product. One thing to note is that this is a very dry sort of formula. If you are uncomfortable with the idea of dipping your finger into the paint pot, you could scape out a thin layer using a small spoon or thin blade. Very little of this product is enough to apply a pigmented layer over both eye lids, so one pot will last a really long time. Also great is a brush with synthetic hair. Swirl your finger a couple of times in the pot and pat it onto your eye-lid. The best way to work with this paint pot is to use your finger. Kajals that normally would smudge like crazy on me, manage to stay defined and dark on me all day. If it is smudged close to the upper and lower lash line, it works as a great base for kohls and eyeliners. Any colour applied with painterly as a base appears much brighter and stays much longer. This product works brilliantly as an eye-shadow base. My favourite way to wear this product as an eye-shadow is with a satin finish brown or taupe in the crease.There is no creasing or caking at all.

The colour complements almost every skin tone beautifully.
