I’m rarely a fan of products that claim to serve several purposes in one, but Redpoint’s Noc-Out Cover Up Compact may have swayed me.

One of my favorite components to my daily beauty routine is the MAC Paint Pot. The product can be used either for color or for priming the eyelids before application of eyeshadow; I use it most often for the second instance, and it works wonders.
