LOVE this shade. Perfect for my skintone to highglight golds. Sometimes I just use it with eyeliner and mascara and looks simple yet classy. A little goes long way!!!!

I love love love this stuff. It's my first paint pot. I did some searching on p'ville and narrowed it down to this color (and I am sooo glad I did--thanks again MUA.) This is a shimmery, cream...

The only reason I am writing this is a heads up for very cool skin tones. It does not work for us. Just give it a try first before investing in the full size. I have tried using it as a...

I've used this as a base for eyeshadow and it works very, very well. I often forget about it, so I haven't used it a whole lot... but when I have, it definitely stays put all day. A great...

Pretty gold/yellow/peach paint pot that makes blue eyes look very bright. Can be a great base for eyeshadows. Looks very pretty with purples on the outer v. Keeps eyeshadows true and from creasing...

The color is so pretty that why I gave it 3 lippies but it creased on me in two hours. So I gave it to a friend. This is not for girls with oily eyelids.

While this makes a great base, I'm not as impressed with this shade as I was with Indianwood. On my NC15 complexion, Rubenesque is a very sheer gold infused peach that can't stand on it's own like...

I thought that Rubenesque would be a nice light golden color, but on my NC43 skintone it is a light pinky/peach like color that made me look sick. Actually, it looks just like the paint pot version...

this appears to be the softest and creamiest paint pot that I own. I really love the color, it is great to be used as a base or alone.

Of all the paint pots I own (around a dozen) this is the sheerest. I was a little surprised at the lack of pigmentation but Rubenesque is also an intimidating color for me to wear, so in that way...

This was my first paint pot, and once I tried this, I was hooked onto paint pots! It's a really pretty pinkish/peachy gold and looks great under almost any eyeshadow, especially expensive pink!...

I saw the reviews on the rubenesque paint pot and I had to have it. I have been using the MAC paint pots as a base since I had an allergic reaction to UDPP and TFSI dried my lids out. This paint...
