Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo Review

Wow, I was blown away with this little pot of colour. I love eye colours, whether it's mascara, eyeliner or shadow, so when I saw this in purple I had to try it. I was a bit dubious about a creamy textured eyeshadow staying put and not sinking into my eyelid creases. I wasn't sure about the best way to apply at first so I used my fingers (which I do for most eyeshadows). This worked, however, it was hard to get a decent amount onto my eyelids this way; was ok for a lighter colour. So I dug out an old eyeshadow sponge brush applicator which enabled me to layer the colour up a bit and create a really vivid purple. And it really does stay on for 24 hours; well even longer on one occasion. I was out quite late and had to be up early the next day so I went to bed with my makeup on (I know, smack on the hand), but the eyeshadow was still perfect the next day and the colour hadn't faded, it looked fresh. It feels great on too, not greasy or sticky and it doesn't sink into your eyelids. The pot is really handy too, easy to fit into a bag if you need to travel. The price is really reasonable; $13.99 and you don't need much so it will last a long time.

I love this product it a multi use, long lasting product that Lasts the whole day. You can use it for any event or day. From a thick going out shine to just a thin shimmer there is something to suit you. I can't wait for pay day do I can go get some more because they are simply brilliant

These a great, i pretty much never wear make up without them now. I have 7 shades and i mostly use them as bases to provide a primer for my eyeshadow. You can also use them alone to create a softer eye look. They're super blendable and have an awesome colour range.

I have a few of these, and god i love them! They stay on all day, and you can use them for the day or night :) The colour is thick and bold which i love! It's really easy to apply as well.

Hands down love these products. Was given two as a birthday present and I use them as a base for eye make up and have even used under lip colours and it stays on ! the dark blue is my absolute favourite under a bright purple smokey eye

I love using these as a base or an eye primer. Looks fantastic on it's own, or with eyeshadow on top. Great price to! You get a lot of product for how much you pay.

I absolutely love this product!

I have three colours - 'bad to the bronze', 'barely branded' and 'painted purple'.

Amazing quality for a great price. Plus there is a lot of product!

I love using these as a base or on their own - they work great as both! When I use them as a base they make my eyeshadow POP and last all day/night. They are really easy and quick to use. I love putting some on my eyes if I'm in a rush and don't have time to do a full on eyeshadow look.

This product doesn't crease at all on me - which some eyeshadows and bases do.

Go and get some! They are AMAZING!

I love love love this product! I don't have extremely oily eyelids but a do have a small problem with creased eye shadows for time to time and the color tattoos eliminate that issue. They work well as a base for eye shadow and also look spectacular on their own, especially with all the different colours available in the range. highly highly recommend these love them and they are a staple for beginners :)

These eyeshadows are a great purchase! They're really cheap and the colour range is really nice! They last on all day and can be used as a base/primer, or an eyeshadow by themselves. They take a bit of work to get off, but well worth it! I assume that they're similar to the Mac Paint Pots (I haven't bought any) but do try!

I've had some less than amazing experiences previously with cream eyeshadows that just didn't fit the bill, but after hearing so much hype about Maybelline's Colour Tattoos I had to give them a go.

I have this in 3 metallic shades - Bad To The Bronze, Eternal Gold and Permanent Taupe. They're all very pigmented, eye-catching hues that give really good colour payoff. I normally apply eyeshadow using a brush, but I found these work best applied using my finger.

I'm also not normally a fan of pot-style packaging but it does work well with this product, letting you easily see how at a glance which shadow is which. They're also good if you're looking at a versatile product to take away with you as the packaging is really sturdy. I often use these when I'm in a hurry for a quick pop of colour.

In terms of longevity, I'm not sure whether these would last '24 hours' as I haven't attempted to wear them that long but I find the colour wears well without creasing all through the day.

For the price you pay you get sooo much product and you really don't need to use a lot of colour, so I can see this lasting a long time - really great value for money and I highly recommend you try them if you haven't already!
