A great base color and it hold my eyeshadow on well. Though I don't seem to reach for it as much as my primer potion.

best eyeshadow base ever. best colour even to wear on its own. i find paint pots are great at intensifying any colour you put over them, they also seem to give cake eyeshadows a longer wearability...

I am so glad that I found out about this product. It is such a great eyeshadow base. I love the natural color. Sometimes I wear it as my eyeshadow. It has a very creamy texture that is not greasy....

This is the unsung hero in my stash. I use it more as a base than a primer-over top of TFSI. It is the pefect "my eyes but better" matte shade. It blends on smoothly with a brush, never creases and...

I use painterly as an eye shadow base. Perfect color in that it is not to beige or too rosy and therefore does not "compete" with eye shadows. I tend to have oily eyelids and this product is...

I love my TFSI, but since it goes on transparent, my pale, veiny lids still tend to show through my shadow. While painterly did cover the veins, it was way too pink for me (NW15/MUFE HD 115) and it...

Creamy colour, just like a canvas. It neutralizes the eye, just like a primer. Gives you a great base prior to eyeshadow application. I'm an NC25 to NC30 (sometimes NC35 in the summer) and this...

This isn't as effective as MAC paint in untitled at providing a neutral, crease-free foundation for my NW20 (extremely oily, contact wearing, and allergic) skin. However, I've met worse, and more...

I love that MAC's paint pots certainly keep makeup from creasing, but Painterly is far too light. I am NC25-30 and so when I use Painterly it looks a little silly and too light. I have seen other...
