Animal Testing: Widely known cruelty free company.
Product Name: Paint Pot in Soft Ochre
Amount of Product: 5 g, 0.17 US OZ.
Price: Between $18 & $20
Colour Tested: Soft Ochre (shown in picture)
What The Product Claims: A highly pigmented eye colour that goes on creamy but dries to an intense, vibrant finish. Long-wearing, colourfast. Creates seamless coverage without weight or caking. Blends smoothly over the lids. Cream based.
I know what you're thinking. "Why didn't you get this in the colour Painterly? Thats the colour everyone has and uses and raves about!" I didn't get this in Painterly because I just felt that Soft Ochre was a colour that suited me better, that's all.
I think this product is fantastic. I can't vouch for the whole "highly pigmented colour" or "vibrant finish" claims, because I've only ever used this soft skin colour, but I have a feeling that this product would for sure live up to this statement.
Very creamy, does not crease ever, absolutely amazing base for eyeshadows or pigments (I love to use this under MAC's pressed pigment eyeshadows, especially in Young Punk). I have yet to apply this under pure glitter for a night out, but Young Punk does have quite a bit of glitter in it already, and it stays put all day. Can be applied with just your finger- which is my preferred method- or a concealer brush. Keeps your shadows on all day long, or can just be used as something to even out your eyelids for a flawless natural look.
I don't feel this product on my eye either, so yes it lives up to it's claim of being weightless and it doesn't cake either, even on those especially hot, humid summer days.
This was one of the first MAC products I ever purchased, and I will continue to re-purchase again and again. I will always use this as one of my most counted on eyeshadow bases, and would highly recommend this to everyone looking for a serious eyeshadow base.

Final Thoughts
Although it is pricey for an eyeshadow base, this is no ordinary eyeshadow base. It goes above and beyond an average base. It comes in a range of colours to somewhat match a few different skin tones (I have somewhat light, olive skin, I'm an NC30-35 most summers, and NC20-25 most winters). Party all night in this, go dancing, even exercise with this on, and your eyeshadow will still be there by the end.
