♡ Mac Vintage Selection Pro Longwear Paint Pot

March 12, 2013


I'm such a huge fan of cream eye shadows, so when i realised that mac had launched some new paint pots i simply couldn't resist! 
Vintage Selection is actually a re-promote, though this time mac have launched it as a Pro Longwear formula. Despite a lot of skepticism around whether this new formula is actually different from your plain old paint pot, I've found that this particular shade lasts all day on me without fading or creasing.


One of my favorite things about cream eye shadows is how easy they can be to apply, which is perfect for people like me who always seem to be in a rush in the morning (I'm blaming the 'snooze' button on my alarm). The consistency of Vintage Selection is definitely one of the best I've tried. It applies effortlessly and blends easily. It also looks beautiful either on its own or paired with other shadows.


Since bringing this little pot home with me last week, I've been wearing it none stop. It's the perfect pale brown colour with a touch of subtle shimmer that looks amazing in direct light.

The Pro Longwear paint pots are currently available from Mac, retailing at £14.50 (quite good value considering how long they last).

  13. I swatched Vintage Selection in MAC the other day and thought it looked gorgeous! My only problem is that previous paint pots do crease on me, but I'm intrigued by the fact they're now long wear.. I may just have to buy it just to see if they've improved ;) Also, thank you for commenting on my Feb Favourites! I've just had a quick 'flick' through your blog and I really love it!
