MAC’s PAINTS POT – my personal favourites
MAC's PAINT POTS - the ultimate must have
Are you building up your eyeshadow collection ? and are you facing the problem of your eyeshadows not showing the true colors despite being higher end brands ? pls dont curse your eyeshadow darlings it is the base which is actual culprit… so looking for solution darlings …
and here comes MAC’s PIANT POTS for your rescue …..
when i was building my MAC’s brigade i wasnt able to decide whether should i buy a paint pot a small glass thing
what would it do or what major concern its going to solve … then once i was at MAC and i was allowed to purchase 2 items (that is how i everytime go to MAC decide from home ACTUALLY)
i bought one mineralize eyeshadow and then i was thinkng what to buy what to buy ?? this MUA used painterely as base and i asked her tell me is it necessary ??? she said if u want it in long run go for this if you are satisfied with the look of colors u r getting without it dont buy …SHE WAS HONEST… i said no actually now i am looking my best pls pack one for me , so ended up buying my FIRST PAINT POT …

but then came the real story i googled and saw some good reviews for other paint pots too so again i went to other MAC and tried INDIANWOOD and it was so gorgeous i ended up buying that as well ( i had to yaar coz i am indian and being that time in USA i was little bit patriotic)
INDIANWOOD is a beutiful bronze mettalic color ,
few tricks i do with it -
apply all over the lid and cranberry e/s in crease OR
apply all over the lid and carbon on crease OR
and def i can use it as a base with my woodwinked e/s they compliment each other
and soo many more just have to be creative

i was by far happy with that BUT
i again googled and saw some really good reviews about RUBENSQUE , some were saying if you wanna own only one go for this so i cheated my other two paint pots and bought my 3rd puppy home and now its NO 1 in my list…
it always happens with me ???
its beautiful gold color with hint of peach and so workable with most of the eyeshadows…
i use it with my melon pigment , its damn tempting
apply all over lid and then some expensive pink or bronze e/s to work with
its universal color and most flatering on indian skin tone
RUBENSQUE by MAC - the color .... mwah
MAC’S PAINT POTS comes in nearly 8 shades ,
its ultra creamy and blends smoothly without being cakey at all , gives your eyeshadow a good base
and colors pops up with this being underneath , i seriouslly dont have any bad words for these so definatelly no cons from my side
here are swatches for the ones i have

PRICE – 1150 /- INR
I RATE IT – atleast buy one i know you would end up buying 2 – 3 like me …
