This is a really great multi-use product from MAC. I am a huge fan of Paint Pots and I have to say, Rubenesque is my all time favorite. Basically it is a creamy, peachy-gold, with a bit of an...

Great texture and extremely pigmented. My only compaint is that it is sometimes overpowering when used as a eye shadow base, the look comes off too shiny. Otherwise, brilliant!!

I tried this based on a recommendation that it makes a great lid primer and eye shadow base. Its too creamy and doesn't stay put. I would never use a MAC paint pot as a primer--it doesn't work...

Pretty peachy colour. Very smooth. It's gorgeous with Woodwinked or Satin Taupe on the outer 2/3rds, but also pretty when worn alone for a super natural look. Love the packaging, some people...

I bought it yesterday without trying on my eyes. It has a lovely peachy color but unfortunately, it sets into my fine lines and creases. I will try to put eyeshadow base underneath, but I ran out...

I've had Rubenesque for almost a year and i really love it for neutral looks, or even just by itself. I'm nc45 and when i place it on my lids, its very sheer. It looks like a nice light pinky...

You have to work with this product quickly when applying onto the eyelids because it drys fast (I now use concealer brush instead of my fingers*). My skin-tone somehow does clashes with this color...
