M.A.C Pro Longwear Paint Pot (Bare Study)

The pink sparkles and looks great as an eyeshadow base.

The texture is a bit thicker than I expected, making it a little difficult to spread. The color lasted well and didn't smudge.

It's an essential part of my makeup routine. I love this gray because it gives a natural shading to my cool undertones. It also adds depth to eyeshadow. It prevents eyeliner from smudging and doubles as an eyeshadow base, so I always apply it first. It's difficult to apply by hand, so I recommend using MAC's Duo Fiber Eyeshadow Brush for a light application, which gives it a great look.

I bought Art Therapy Chi. I love how the color lasts so long. I use a flat brush and apply a thin line like eyeliner to the inner and outer corners of my upper and lower eyelids, which adds just the right amount of color. The only downside is that it comes in a bottle, which makes it inconvenient to carry around.

It's not too cool for a gray, but it still creates a strong shadow effect. I like gray eyeshadow, so I'm happy with the results, whether I use this alone or layer a powder shadow on top. It lasts pretty well, but I think it's best to avoid using it on double eyelids. You can also use a small amount to contour your nose.
