Overall, I was quite pleased with MAC’s newest editions to the Paint Pot line and, as always, I hope that they continue to expand the range of colors in its permanent collection. I feel that the price is fairly on par with other cream eyeshadows too. I experienced a bit of fallout, which seems odd for a cream product, but I haven’t had any issues with the glitter falling into my eyes nor becoming an issue with my contact lenses. These Pro-Longwear Paint Pots are quite glittery and sparkly, and have an almost metallic finish to them. Let Me Pop (frosted light copper) – a bright shiny copper, like a new pennyĭangerous Cuvee, Frozen Violet, Let Me PopĪs with all MAC Paint Pots, these eight are nicely pigmented, smooth in texture, long-wearing, and can be worn on their own or as a base for powder eyeshadow. I got the chance to test out three of the shades.ĭangerous Cuvee (frosted cool grey) – a perfect taupe to my eyesįrozen Violet (frosted purple silver) – muted greyish purple, on the sheer side The point is that MAC has added eight shades of Paint Pots to their permanent line-up, and that’s a good thing. Let’s just accept that Paint Pots were awesome and long-wearing before you ever coined the term “Pro-Longwear” and that if Paint Pots wore any longer than they already do, you might not ever get them off! That’s not to say that Paint Pots aren’t awesome Pro-Longwear or not – they’re the best cream shadows out there, in my opinion. There are two new shades, but other than that, there haven’t been any changes to the ingredient list, nor to the price, or size, or packaging, or anything else. MAC’s eight new Pro-Longwear Paint Pots ( $18.50) are mostly re-promoted shades of prior limited edition Paint Pots. If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a Pro Longwear duck? Oh MAC, you silly goose (duck?)… a Paint Pot by any other name is still as long-wearing!
