I did end up going back to MAC and purchasing the Rubenesque paint pot (and it's GORGEOUS!), but when I got home, I was getting ready to wrestle that baby open since paint pots are sealed TIGHT and I noticed that the cap was already loose and twisted open... So I opened it and lo and behold, a dried up paint pot. *TEAR* So I just wanted to show you guys what a dried up paint pot looks like. Don't let this happen to you! Then I took it back to the store. I didn't know if I wanted to exchange it or just return it, but I ended up just exchanging it since it's a really pretty color and my fav MA was there. Here are some swatches! I can't wait to wear it :)
Oh and P.S. for Erica (and anyone else who's wondering lol)--The Moss Scape paint pot did crease on me, but I don't know if it's because I wore them on really sunny days where I was sweating a lot. It only creased in the inner corners of my eye though where my eyelids crease to begin with even with no makeup on. However, I wore it today (and the weather is freezing cold) and it has not creased at all on me yet and it's been 9 hours. I think I'd only recommend this if you're going to use it as an eye shadow as well and not just as a base because if you just need a base, I'd suggest UDPP or some other kind of primer. Hope this helps!
Dried up paint pot :( The MA saw this and was like "Holy moly!" Haha
Brand spankin new paint pot!
It looks gold in the swatch, but it's also very peachy, pink, and shimmery! It's like a duo chrome color. It's beautiful! :D

hey there, saw your blog from trinh page, and i must say i really like your blog, your green look on the 4th is really pretty!!! and your meez is just too cute!!! btw im going to link you if thats okay
Woah, thats crazy.
gasp on the dried paintpot!!
you did well to exchange it. Rubenesque is soooo gorgeous:)
hahaha that's so funny how it plopped out of the pot. at least you were able to exchange it. but i loooooooove rubenesque. that's what i pretty much reach for as a base.
wow your right! Rubenseque is a really gorgeous color. I'm glad you posted up a pic of the dried up paint pot. lol. It's good that they let you exchange it =] and thanks for letting me(and anyone out there =])know on how well the paint pots worked against creasing for you. do you use your finger tips to apply or a brush? I'm just curious on how most people would apply their paint pots =] lol
how funny. I really like that color too. It's so pretty!
oh that looks so nice! i've always avoided the MAC counter coz i know if i do go i'm going to end up spending so much there but you're tempting me so badly :P
o man u made me wanted to go back to MAC and get one of these!!! i just got two of the electro flash shadows today and omg they are GORGEOUS but not gorgeous at all if i had to pay with my own money!! i had a $50 gift card muwahaha!!!
Definitely a HOLY MOLY!!! But good thing you changed it already! that would be awful!!!
That's such a pretty color :)
dried up paint pot looks like candy. thank goodness for return policy, you got to exchange it!
I like the color as well, but I didn't get that one. :) I got Painterly and Bare Study.
paint pots crease on me if i use it by itself. i have to use UDPP under it, and it'll usually last longer. also, i notice that the matte ones crease less than the shimmery ones. i have a sample of rubenesque and it creases more than my soft ochre. :)
rubenesque is SUCH a pretty color though, i completely agree. :)
geezus, a dried up paint pot is beh. that sucks. but i'm glad you were able to exchange it for a new one without any problems! :)
my favorite paint pot! i used it all up =( I want to get another one some time. i'm having some kind of allergic reaction to painterly and layin low -maybe b/c they're matte ick...my eye is swollen!
hhahhaha i kinda think it looks cute all dried up like that!
rubenesque is my HG base! I LOVE it and use it almost every single day! i still oooh and ahh it everyday :D
Warm gorgeous color! It looks great against your skin :)
Hope you're having a great weekend!
