MAC Rubenesque Paint Pot. Where do I begin? This product is
my baby, I love it probably more than a sane person should love a small pot of makeup,
but I really can't help it.
If I am bothering to wear any sort of colour on my lids,
nine times out of ten I'll be wearing Rubenesque. Worn on its own it is easy to
apply and blend out with a finger. Worn underneath eyeshadow, it is a fantastic primer which makes your
eyeshadow last all day. Well, a good 12 hours at the least ;) On its own the
wear time isn't quite as good. With my oily skin it lasts somewhere more
between eight and ten hours, but if you have drier skin it may last a lot
longer.
The colour is simply gorgeous, a peachy pinky gold which is
very versatile. It has some shimmer to it, but just enough to give more of a
'glow' to the eye, rather than ending up a glittery mess. It isn't incredibly
pigmented once applied to the eye, but can be built up to give a stronger
colour.
At £14.50 each, it's not the cheapest product in my makeup
bag, but to me it is worth every penny. I have had my pot since February and
there's barely a dent in it.
Have you ever tried the Mac Paint Pots? If so recommend me some different
colours below!
