Must Have!
This is my one must have! I can wear it as a stand alone product or as a primer for my MAC eyeshadows, that increases wear time without creasing or smudging.

Paint Pot
Theirs is. Nothing like a MAC paint pot. It can be worn as an eyeshadow or primer. Once in place it stays put. No settling in fine lines.

Multipurpose product
I like to use this as my eyeshadow base. Nothing holds shadow onto your eyes as well as this in my opinion! 12 hour where for sure

I will always buy this product!
I love this product. Perfect for my "no-makeup-days" as it has nice pigment to it, but blends in so well with my natural skin that I use it to conceal blemishes on my no-makeup-days. I also use it as a base before applying a heavier concealer to cover the really dark spots around my eyes. I hope MAC never discontinues this product as I have never seen anything else like it.

Color is perfect, application has a learning curve
I am OBSESSED with the color Tailor Grey, but you have to work fast, as the product dries/gets gunky fairly quickly. It can also get manky with layering, so there's definitely a learning curve with paint pots. For reference, I'm applying it with my fingers, and would appreciate any brush recommendations that could cut down on application difficulty. I'm also considering picking up the mixing medium to extend the time before it sets. Still, the color & finish is worth the hassle of trying to finesse a product that applies less intuitively (for me, your experience may vary!) . Still, wish MAC would release this in a satin eyeshadow formulation, as that's much more user friendly, IMO!

We love your fascination with Tailor Grey, Lane! It's a stunning cool taupe, but it does set fast! Try applying with a buffing synthetic brush (like the MAC #286 Duo Fibre Tapered Brush) for more control and quick bendability. To keep it workable longer, mix in a bit of MAC Mixing Medium — it helps smooth application + layering. Additionally, if you're craving that shade in a softer formula, check out Satin Taupe — it gives major Tailor Grey vibes but in a super blendable satin finish. View it here: bit.ly/MACSatinTaupeES.

Best eyelid primer/concealer
Been using this for over 10 years and I will not ever stop. You can use it as an eyelid primer to really hold your eyeshadow all day and you can use it as concealer to cover up those puffy eyes or dark circles underneath. It also lasts a long time a little will go a long way.

Yes, it's perfect. Love Painterly!
I had been using some warmer toned eyeshadows and was really not enjoying them. I haven't figured out what my best colors are, but in the meantime, Painterly to the rescue! It's an excellent base and a shadow color that I'm feeling more comfortable with.

Love this product
I've been using these for eye shadows for a while, and own multiple colors. I love how they last ALL DAY, with no creasing or fading. I'd recommend these to anyone!!

Too glittery
It has so much of a fine glitter look - not what I expected and not my preference. It does go on smoothly.

Super amazing color for the pot cream
First time purchasing the pot cream, and perfect for the makeup routine, and it creases for the eyelids to pop up for the color.

Primer and shadow! Perfect!
I use this as both standalone shadow to even out my eyelid area and a primer under eyeshadow. It's so good!

Black smudges unfortunately
Smudged so badly after maybe 2 hours.
1 reply from MAC Cosmetics team - 2 months ago
Sorry to hear that Black Mirror Paint Pot smudged on yo, Stellar! Paint Pots have great staying power, but sometimes oilier lids or humidity can affect wear. To help lock it in, try using the Prep + Prime 24-Hour Extend Eye Base underneath—it creates a smooth, long-lasting canvas. You can also set Black Mirror with a powder shadow like Carbon to boost staying power and reduce smudging. Alternatively, for a bold black base that really stays put, the Colour Excess Gel Pencil in “Glide or Die” works beautifully smudged out as a shadow or base and sets to a long-wearing and waterproof finish.

PLEASE BRING BACK CONTEMPLATIVE SLATE
i've had the same pot for over two years. it was the PERFECT shade for medium/tan olive skinned girlies. it canceled out my darker eyelids without being orange/reddish or pulling and ashy yellow (soft ochre) or an ashy pink (painterly) it was the PERFECT everyday, cover to cover the darkness while adding a touch of color. super low maintenance. the other shades i HAVE to put on a color on top which isn't ideal for everyday

Go-To Primer
I have used this exclusively as a two-in-1 product to prep my eyelids before eye shadows and to help even out skintone. Creamy, long-lasting, and very pretty.
