Painterly is a neutral cream that I use as an eyeshadow primer. I think I have gone through at least 5 pots of MAC's Paint Pots in Painterly this year. When I wash off my makeup in the evening, it is sometimes the only thing besides my mascara that is still on. It doesn't crease at all and lasts all day long. I have tried many other eye primers, and they just don't have the coverage that the paint pot has. This stuff is talked about so much for a reason. I usually use a concealer brush to apply it and then I set it with Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder. I like to add Rosehip Seed Oil so that my lids get a little extra hydration, and it also helps the paint pot to be a little more spreadable. It is the one thing that really brightens up my appearance and makes me look alive. The paint pot is amazing for covering up the imperfections and prepping my lids for eye shadow, but most days I just wear it on it's own. I have very fair skin, and unfortunately my eyelids are super purple and my veins stick out pretty obviously.
