Initially I really liked the product, the colours are very pigmented and the creamy texture made it easy to apply. However after using it for a month or so only a handful of times it dried up and became flaky making it very difficult to use and work with.

I had high expectations for this. I got the 60 Silver Strike shade excited about the color. I was super disappointed in the consistency, it made me feel like I was trying to scrape honey across my eyelid. It was so thick, and not easy to work with. The end product was quite bitty, and probably wouldn't use it again.
I find these shades are pretty but for me it was hard to use. They don't blend well at all and for makeup dummies like me they are total disaster.
Whilst the colours are nice and bright, I found it very difficult to apply this evenly. I tried different ways from finger to brush, the more I tried to get it even, the more it got uneven. So I would not buy it again.
I have two colour tattoos, and sadly they're not quite what I expected. I found that they creased on my eyelids a lot and it was very noticeable. They were ok if i was only wearing them for one or two hours, but any longer then they creased and almost dried out on my lid. I tried using them with and with out eyelid primers and bases but nothing really changed the outcome. Its a shame cause I really liked some of the colours and had high expectations of them.
I didn't have a very good experience with these, they wernt very pigmented hard to apply and just plain difficult I would not ever buy again, also the stay power of these isnt very good i found that they only last an hour or so without primer and maybe a couple more hours with it
this is a bluey- greyish colour. I had never used a colour tattoo before and in all honesty i didn't find it that great. I found that this colour did not apply smoothly and it started creating patches in different place. I'm not sure if this was just my colour or if they all do this but i was definietly not impressed. I was kind of dissapointed because i hear such great things. The colour however is really nice and would work well with fairer skin tones.
I've heard many beauty youtubers rave about this product but I found it difficult to apply as it is not as smooth as I expected and that it clumps in the creases of the eyelid.
I have only one shade in this product (barely branded) and I was disappointed with it so I haven't purchased any more. So i'm not sure whether the other shades are any better.
I have been using this for a month now in the shade barely branded. I like the colour as it is quite neutral. I have had mixed results from this. Sometimes I find it hard to get an even texture when applying with my finger, but other times it has worked really well. Again, sometimes it creases and sometimes it doesn't.
Tips: You will need to be using this regularly to prevent it drying out. I have had it open for a month now and if I am not using it regularly, the top layer seems to dry out quite a bit and is harder to apply.
I bought this in the shade Bad to the Bronze as I was attracted to the shade - a great light sparkling gold colour. Unfortunately it is too pale for me and I don't like the look of it on my eyelids unless it is layered with a darker shadow, but my real gripe is that it creases on me! I'm not a fan for this reason - I cannot stand creased eyeshadow. The formula is nice though, cream eyeshadows are so easy to use and the colour range of these is great and increasing all the time.
Tips: If you have issues with these creasing try MAC pro longwear paint pots - which DO NOT BUDGE!
