Once it dries, it set completely without budging. This eye cream dries down fast with no down time. When working with Paint Pot, you need to be fast. Bare Study is a teeny bit easier to blend while Layin’ Low is drier but still blends well although not as effortlessly as Bare Study. Bare Study is a beautiful frosty, shimmery light gold and Layin’ Low is a darker matte finish cream that goes well with medium to dark skin tone. Here is the swatch of both Bare Study and Layin’ Low on the back of my hand. It works just as well as I expected BUT I wasn’t expecting how diversify these Paint Pot can be. Then again, the very main reason I bought these is to be used as an eye base before eyeshadow. I wasn’t expecting Bare Study to be shimmery and I certainly didn’t expect Layin’ Low to be darker that what it looks like from the outside. Well, I’m just going to call these Paint Pot 😀 I took a quick glance at MAC website and Paint Pot is now referred as Pro Longwear Paint Pot. All these while I know these pots as “Paint Pot” but Layin’ Low is labeled under Pro Longwear Paint Pot. The reason why I chose this duo is because Bare Study is the lightest shade available but unfortunately it was paired in a pack with Layin’ Low.

I managed to take my sweet time choosing the right pack with the right shade for me and so I went home with MAC Paint Pot Bare Study and Layin’ Low. MAC did indeed had a box of Paint Pot on clearance. I made a beeline to MAC right after stopping by Bobbi Brown. I knew I would be going to the annual Estée Lauder warehouse sales so I hold on to my purchase at the store, hoping MAC would throw in a few pots at the sale event. Two of the most mentioned Paint Pot is Painterly and Soft Ochre, which unfortunately is not the two that I’m about to talk about today. Isn't very sanitary, considering if you use your finger each time and putting the product on your eyes.I’ve been wanting to get MAC Paint Pot ever since I heard about it from various Youtube beauty gurus.It makes me wonder if they will discontinue the line all together. Lacking a white shade (which is great for any eyeshadow - esp. Small color selection - all neutral or brown shades.Good Value - one jar will last a very, very long time with daily use.Long-lasting (the cream/satin finishes tend to last longer without fading).Creamy consistency (the frost finishes tend to be smoother).Although the color selection is small, the shades available are very pretty.In fact, I thought they were an overrated product until I purchased my first one! If you haven't tried them yet, I definitely recommend trying one out at some point! I never thought I was going to like them.
