I would like to thank @JudyL and @Shanus for recommending Mac Paint Pot in the shade Painterly as a shadow base. I was using Trish McEvoy eye base for at least 5 years straight until I tried this. I have used it daily for around a month as both a base on some days and a shadow on others. I have hooded aging eyes and this does not crease or look dry. My eyes seem to "pop" more when using this. I thought the color might be too dark for my fair skin, but it works great.

If you are looking for a multi purpose eye base, this stuff is great!

@scullychick  - You're welcome!  So glad it worked for you.  It is great as an eyeshadow base.  All  my other eyeshadows primers are just sitting in a drawer unused.

@scullychick Thanks for the recommendation.   I must have missed it when @JudyL and @Shanus talked about this.  I have been looking for a good shadow base since Laura Geller discontinued her base in a pot,  which was my go to..   

Painterly looks much too pink for me.  I think I'll try the Soft Ochre,  which is much more my color.  Thanks all.

@scullychick and @nyc1  - I like that you don't need much if using it as a shadow base so the pot will last a long time.  @nyc1 - the Soft Ochre has more yellow in it than the Painterly shade - just an FYI and what I've observed when I saw them in person.

Used this one for years! It doesn't dry out either, which is a plus!

@scullychick   You're so welcome. I always love to pass along a bit of knowledge or recommend a product that works for someone.

I just got back from Ulta and picked up Bare Study.  Thanks for suggesting it.

@JudyL    Thanks ...  I have a lot more yellow in my skin than pink,  HOWEVER,  I do tend to wear brick and cinnamon colors for my eye shadows.  I'll need to think about this one.   Maybe I'll ask @Shanus  what she suggests... painterly or soft ochre?
