    Bought this to used as a neutral base for eye shadow. Love paints, they're the only thing that last a super long time, and do NOT crease (even on my sometimes oily lids).

    I bought this paint as an alternative to UD Primer Potion to use as a base on my lids, which are too dark to use as a "bare canvas" (har har). Sometimes the paint is hard to blend (using my...

    This is a pretty good eye base color. It doesn't doesn't appear to change the color of an eyeshadow I want to adhere on. But this paint eyeshadow does not crease and it really last and last it...

    I don't know how I ever lived without this. Honestly. I have insanely oily eyelids and eyeshadows used to crease like crazy or melt off. I even tested this out after I got it by applying it to my...

    Oooh. i love it.. a nice, slightly frosty, cream-colored eyeshadow. this is perfect for pale girls who want to do that jazzed up, almost nude eye look. This on the lids, a sharp black liner or a...

    Best eye shadow pigment I've ever tried. My eye shadow stays put twice as long. Best MAC product I've ever bought.

    Bare Canvas paint is exactly that, it makes an excellent base for MAC eyeshadows and makes them stay on all day with no creases.

    I use this as an e/s base with my MAC 249 large shader brush. The brush applies it beautifully. I squeeze out just bit onto the back of my hand and work from there. It makes my eyeshadow much...

    I read that some people find it chalky.....I think that when this is used as a base, it needs to be spread thinly. It works when applied with a fingertip, and even if it is only a thin layer, it...

    Bare canvas is a really good base for eyeshadows. As a pale redhead, I find that this color blends PERFECTLY with my skin tone. Consequently, it is not hard to blend, and it doesn't look chalky...

    This shimmery (but not TOO much) champagne e/s creates a perfect base to apply other e/s on top, as it unifies the lid skin tone. It goes on really creamy but dries to a powdery finish, with no...

    Bare Canvas will forever and ever be my HG eye shadow base. I was concerned that it would be too light for my tanned Asian complexion, but it was the perfect color to cover and control the dark...

    I LOVE this stuff! I use it as a base and NO creasing from the time I put on my shadows until I wash them off at night. At least 12 hours! This coming from the queen of greasy lids. You only need a...

    I love this as an e/s base. I am a PPP and this covers the blood vessels that show through the pale skin on my eyelids. It is matte and fairly drying. Careful to only use a very small amount, or...

    This is the only MAC paint I have come to love. I use it as a base for me eyeshadows. If I wear it alone it seems to crease.
