Who needs MAC paint pots when you can buy these for a DOLLAR!? I have one in every duo-color. I love them! They are perfect bases for all my eye shadows. When used as a base (and applied with a light hand) they do not crease and help to enhance any eye shadow that is applied over them. They are creamy and smooth and easy to just apply with your finger! Plus I use mine all the time and haven't run out of them yet. Again, for only a dollar these are fantastic!
