Maybelline Colour Tattoos

I use this product on a daily basis (either Barely Branded or Bad to the Bronze) and generally am happy with them. They are pigmented enough to be worn alone but sometimes apply splotchy when using a brush to apply. I find they tend to fade after about 8 hours tho which isn't a problem, just not quite the 24 hours they claim. Also act as a great base to other powder products.

Rich brown

I purchased the brown shade of this ( will insert exact shade shortly) at a makeup sale recently.

Uses: I primarily use this as a base for my everyday brown "naked 2" palette looks. It definitely adds dimension to the eyeshadow looks I am creating and leaves a deeper, warmer result that if I hadn't used the colour tattoo.

the product:

I do find the product can occasionally be applied to thickly and result in premature creasing of my eyeshadow. I am not marking the product down for this because I did buy it from a makeup sale but I find it sometimes a bit hard and difficult to get to glide onto my finger , sometimes I feel like I have to dig. Which is disappointing as it also results in a harder application onto my eyes.

The packing of the colour tattoo is a little pot that contains the product with a screw on lid. I think the packing suits the product well and was a good decision. It is sleek and easy to fit in along with any travel makeup etc.

Longevity: I found this product lasted a decent time under my eyeshadow, I also believe it acted as a primer and helped my eyeshadow to stay put throughout the day/night which I was pleased with.

Tips: Don't use too much as it can get a little heavy and crease!

Good...

This product has a great selection of colours to choose from, not a lot, but a decent amount. I like the formula and the texture, but I feel like they crease too easily on my oily eyelids unless i add an eyeshadow on top, which is what i don't want to do most of the time. I think these colour tattoo's would suit drier / normal eyelids but not oily eyelids like myself.

I need more!

I have a few of these but need more. I love them as a base for my eyeshadow. They really make any colour you put over top stand out and stay put! There are a good range of colours and I often pair them, a darker one on the outer half of the eye and lighter on the inner half. They help create great dimension to an eye look. The only thing I don't like is the product can dry up before you get to use it all.

Tips: Apply with fingers!

Good MAC dupe

I have this product in a variety of colours and I love them all! While they're not as thick as the MAC paintpots, they work really well as a coloured eyeshadow base and can be used as an alternative to a standard lid primer.

Tattoo eyeshadow

Beautiful colours and seems nice and creamy but I found the texture hard to work with, probably fine for someone who is better at make up than me but I definitely prefer a powder eyeshadow find it easier to blend than this. I wanted to like it more! It's so pretty

Great value

For the price, this is a great product. I do find that it is a bit dry so i have to dig my brush into it. Also it doesnt blend well, but if you want a solid high pigmented colour it is great!

Tips: Use only a small bit at a time and build it up as it is very flakey and it will clump if you over apply

Stays put all day

I love this product on my lids for special events where I want my makeup to stay perfect all night without fading or smudging. My issue with this is that it is hard to blend with a brush, fingers are the best option but this means less precision. Still a wonderful product, I like to do my whole eye look and then finish it off with a dash of the silver in the middle for an eye catching metallic pop!

Beautiful colours

These are really beautiful and look amazing on the lids they last for ever however they don't layer well you have to have the first layer down and hope it goes well if you start layering to build the pigment it will lift and go patchy

Best used as a base coat

I've got 8 of these, they are great. Find they work best as an eyeshadow base, under powder shadow as they give your eyeshadow lots of colour intensity and make them last longer! If you have super oily eyelids you'll still need to prime your eyelids as these DO crease! Pomegranate Punk is my favourite, it looks gorgeous paired with Mac Star Violet eyeshadow. Bad to the Bronze is super versatile and looks good on all eye colours (it's a similar colour to Mac's Satin Taupe eyeshadow). However, I'd avoid the green colour - it's very dry compared with all the other colours!

Tips: These are prone to drying out so make sure you screw the lids on tight and store them upside down!
