Product Review: Maybelline Color Tattoo


New Product
Review:

Maybelline 24hr color tattoo

Hello beauty junkies!
If you haven’t seen these at your local drugstore, Target, or Ulta, either you’re not a real beauty junkie (JK), you live in a cave, or they have been SOLD OUT!

These have created quite a craze around YouTube and the beauty blog community.
People are raving about them.
They have been said to be comparable to MAC paintpots.
I can’t say anything to either support or refute that claim as I have never used a MAC paintpot, but I can tell you that all the hype is completely warranted!

This little glass pots of color are adorable.
The packaging is great and the product is even better.
They are long lasting (maybe not 24 hours but what other than a day lasts that long?)
The colors are amazing!
They have beautiful vibrant shades and neutrals.
Additionally shade Tough as Taupe is a matte color for all you matte color lovers.
I personally am a fan of the sparkle, but Tough as Taupe was the first color I picked up because it looked so versatile.
You can overlay a sparkly eyeshadow or add a matte one.

Also all of the colors are buildable so you can add as much or as little to your lids to create many different looks.
They add a beautiful effect beneath other eyeshadows no matter the amount you put on underneath, or they are beautiful and smudge free by themselves.

I am a NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil lover. I may only have three but I L-O-V-E love those three.
However Maybelline Color Tattoo is better.

Here’s why:

-you do not have to the Color Tattoo set with an eye shadow
-the form (I personal don’t like the pencil shape, sharpening is annoying)
-the color payoff is greater
-the staying power
-the Color Tattoo doesn’t crease much

NYX Jumbo Pencils are naturally more creamy than the Maybelline Color Tattoos but with a few circles of the fingers the Color Tattoos warm up from your body heat and have a lovely texture that is easier to apply, than the uber creamy jumbo pencils.
