Read this: MAC Uninterrupted eyeshadow – a rediscovery! They also come in different colors and finishes.

(I never notice much creasing from 8 – 10 hours of wear, but anything after 10 – 12 hours is fair game.) They are also generally quite creamy and easy to apply with brushes or fingers. Well, nine times out of ten my shadows apply smoothly and lock into place for long-wear with one of these babies underneath. But I’ve always come back to my good ‘ole Paint Pots. That is saying something! I’ve tried a lot of products in my time, including other eye primers like the Urban Decay Primer Potion and the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I’ve probably never been as dedicated to one particular product as I have been to the MAC Paint Pots.

Primarily, I use Paint Pots as eye primers before I apply powder shadows, and this is something I’ve been doing since I started wearing makeup years and years ago. These are just great, reliable little products that I just can’t be without. This is one of those rare cases where I agree with nearly all the claims a brand makes about their product (obviously I can’t attest to the first two claims).
