Maybelline Colour Tattoo Cream Eyeshadow Duo |
You know when you go into Boots for one thing, but end up coming away with a bag full? Yeah, I do that whenever Boots has a 3 for 2 offer. Ever since the Maybelline Colour Tattoo Eyeshadow's came out back in 2012 (Can you believe it's been that long?), everyone has been ranting and raving about the wide variety of shades and their formulas. I can't believe it took me three years to try these out, but I never thought that the formula would work well with my oily lids. Many have compared these to the MAC Paint Pots, which I haven't tried and therefore cannot compare, but for me these not only act as a base for other eyeshadows, but they can be used on their own due to their great colour pay off and pigmentation.
Pink Gold is a shimmery, pink shade that I like to wear all over my lids as a wash of colour, whilst I use On and On bronze, the shade in which many swear by, in my crease to create a smokey eye. With long lasting, creamy formulas these can be blended out and although I would never want to leave my eyeshadow on for 24 hours, they do last a very long time on the lid without the need to re apply. To increase longevity of these further, I like to apply my Urban Decay Naked 3 palette over the top. For £4.99 they are a great high street addition to my make up bag and they have been on my lids ever since I bought them.
Have you tried the Maybelline Colour Tattoo Eyeshadows? What are your favourite shades?
Oooh these look like gorgeous shades for spring summer! I love the rose gold. Maybe I'll have to give these a try! xx

I have On & on bronze (I think that's what it's called!) but haven't used it in a while so this post has made me want to take it out & start using it again! xx
ReplyDeleteThese are both BEAUTIFUL - definitely picking them up soon. Metallic Pomegranate is a recent fave, I reviewed it a few days ago if you fancy a read!

Colour tattoos are life.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite by FAR is bad to the bronze - it's honestly so incredible and has not dried up on me even after having it for years.

I haven't tried the MAC paint pots either but don't feel like I need to with these Colour Tattoos. I have about 5 of them now and I love them all, my latest favourite shade is Metallic Pomegranate which was my most recent purchase x
ReplyDeleteBeauty with charm
I bought one of these when they first came out and totally forgot about it! I think a new purchase is on the cards!

I can't believe the colour tattoos have been out for so long?! I kinda have a love/hate relationship with them, sometimes I love them as a wash all over shade, but sometimes I find them way too shimmery. But I definitely need to try the new 'leather effect' ones!

I've tried On and On Bronze and absolutely love the pigmentation. I can't believe I hadn't tried them before I bought them in a 3 for 2 deal as well x
ReplyDeleteThey sound so great! I prefer to buy full pallets as opposed to individual colours but I might give these a go! x
ReplyDeleteOhh both of these are stunning. I always forget Maybelline do these!

Ooh I have both of these and I love them but I've never thought to wear them together, I definitely need to try them together xx

I also own these two colours and I get a lot of use out of them. They're really long lasting and don't crease, they also act as a great base with an shadow over the top. I also love wearing these with the Naked 3 palette!

I *adore* these. They're honestly one of the best products in my makeup drawers. I would definitely recommend checking out a few of their other shades too, they have a few darker and smokier shades which are just divine, a personal favourite of mine is permanent taupe too which is a matte taupe shade and basically goes with everything, or looks fab on it's own!
