First of all, I have all of the paint Pots except 2, I think, and this one is my least fave. I think I will have to use it as a liner, not a shadow. It is not as creamy as Indianwood or Bare...

OVERVIEW: It isn’t often I’m surprised by a product. For example, I usualy hate cream eyeshadows beacause they crease on my oil-slicked lids. The new Paint Pots are quickly becoming the most used...

Loooove Blackground Paint Pot. I use this as my daily eyeliner. It is smudgeproof and lasts all day. Think Blacktrack Fluidline but less harsh and in a gel/creamy formulation with silver specks...

I bought Blackground in the hopes that I would obtain a smoky eye without much effort. Theoretically, Blackground is the product to turn to for exactly that - a smoky, slightly shimmery sheer black...

This is the Paint Pot equivalent of Dark Soul pigment. That said I like it better than Dark Soul because the texture and durablilty of the Paint Pots is awesome! I also like that this product is...

Fabulous for a smokey eye! I agree w/ the reviews that say it is a *bit* hard to blend out perfectly. But every time I use it I always use another e/s over it or to blend the outer corners & it...

I am always a sucker for new MAC products so when the new paint pots came out I was excited to give them a try. The MA suggested Blackground for an instant smokey eye. I initially declined but...

Blackground is great as a shadow and as liner. It's a sheer and lightweight formula and you only need a tiny bit each time. The colour is a smoked out black with silver glitter, (sheer black,...

I purchased blackground to use as a smoky eye base. Although I am a fan of the longevity of the product and am impressed with its smoky eye abilities I find it difficult to apply. I've used...

I tried this with a brush...hated it. I tried it using my finger, yes, a big no no, but it really needs the warmth of that to spread and blend evenly...now I adore it! I use the bare study first as...

Perfect cream eyeshadow for smoky eyes. Blackground can start off as a sheer, shimmery gray, then can build up to intensify into a rich, almost metallic looking black. I love it. Difficulty may be...
