LOVE these!

I love these! They work great as a base for your eyeshadow! Or on their own they make an easy but nice eye look!

Tips: I use a sigma concealer brush to apply and it works amazing! Sometimes I feel using my finger, the shimmer stays on your finger and doesn't stick to your lids

Plesantly surprised

This product is a cream gel that smoothes on with you fingertip. The color does not fade over the day. I wore it on a number of occasions, even while gardening all day and it stayed onwell. Being older I don't usually wear shiny eyecolour but this looked nice.

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo

Love love love this eye colour!!! I got the taupe shade and it's gorgeous ( I am keen on neutrals tho!!) In the name of cosmetic testing I put this to the true 24 hour test.... And it passed with flying colours!! I don't know when I would require my eyeshadow to last for 24hrs, but in the event I did, I would be reaching for this. Can't wait to get a hold of some of the other shades!

Tips: I tried applying this with both an eyeshadow applicator and my finger... Finger was easier brush was more accurate. The more you apply... The deeper the shade!

Worth the hype!!

I've got two of these eyeshadows: Bad to the Bronze (my favourite!) and Barely Branded. Bad to the Bronze is a stunning shimmery bronze (leaning more to a taupe undertone than a red undertone) that I think would look amazing on anyone. I often wear it by itself, sheered out over my lid and concentrated a tiny bit more in the crease, and it looks absolutely beautiful and like I've spent hours doing my makeup when in reality it took me less than a couple of minutes. I thought Barely Branded would be perfect for an everyday natural wash of colour, but I find it a bit too frosty for that unless I really sheer it out. However, it makes a nice base/primer for other eyeshadows, and I don't regret buying it. None of the other colours we can get here in New Zealand appeal particularly to me: they're all a bit too bright/random for me to really get any use out of, but if Maybelline ever brings out any neutral shades of this (a matte brown would be so nice!) here I'll definitely pick them up.

They do last on my ever-so-slightly oily eyelids for a good 8-ish hours at least, although they sometimes crease a little after that, so they don't quite live up to the 24 hour claim, but I still think they have amazing lasting power. And, best of all, they're not that expensive!! I got both of mine for under $20 at Farmers, so that's great!! :) Overall: definitely love them, and they're a staple in my makeup bag now!

Tips: I've had Bad to the Bronze for nearly a year now, and it recently formed a bit of a crusty layer on top: if that happens to you, just sit the pot in some really hot water (make sure it doesn't go past the start of the plastic lid) for about 10 minutes and then scrape of the very top layer and it should be all nice and creamy again. Hope that helps! xx

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo

This is my new Holy Grail product, i absolutely love them! So far i have Painted Purple, Silver Strike and Bold Gold and want more! I use the silver one the most as it goes with everything! i wear a eye shadow primer underneath if im just wearing it by it self but if you wanted you could also wear them as a base to get more colour , they have multiple uses. i use my finger tip to apply and it goes on smoothly! There are so many colors to choose from , i recommend this product to everyone!!

Best long lasting eyeshadow

I have this in four different colours and they are my absolute fave eyeshadows. I apply it with an eyeshadow brush as I find that gives me a more concentrated colour.

I love using the white colour as a base primer, it honestly works better than any primer I have tried before. The colours go on vibrant and literally stays on all day. The gold is really nice to do this with as well.

Tips: Use a brush to apply as I find the the staying power isn't as great if you apply it with your fingers as its too sheer.

Amaze.

After weeks of deliberating as to whether to purchase or not to purchase, I purchased. And I'm so very glad I did. I got mine at a makeup sale for about $15. I got inked in pink which wouldn't have been my first choice because I have blue eyes but it makes a great base and looks gorgeous when paired with gold. I holds powder shadow all day. I really want one of these in barely branded as an everyday colour to wear alone but it seems that it is so popular that where ever I look for it it is sold out.

Tips: Apply with finger to get the best coverage.

Inked in Pink

I purchased this after reading really good reviews & watching youtube videos, everyone was so overhyped about these pots, how longlasting they are. I ordered the pink one, it was so bright and glittery, I really didn't expect it, it didn't look good on me and it was creasing on my eyelids after an hour. The wrong color choice was probably my fault (although pink should look good with my brown eyes and hair), but it wasn't longlasting at all. I tried it again with eyeshadow-base underneath next time, but got the same results. I gave it to someone who loves these color tattoos.:) I love maybelline products, but this one really isn't for me.

Tips: no matter how everyone loves a product, sometimes it just doesn't click with you, try to go somewhere where you can see and try out the colors, avoid ordering them online for the first time

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo

I'm a purple freak.. i love purple. everything purple! so when maybelline were giving away a free tattoo eye shadow with their new Volum express plush mascara, i was instantly interested! of course i chose the purple, and i have never been disappointed! i love the colour, the smooth consistency, and the staying power it has, i use it for smokey eyes under my lower lash line and i have also used it as an eyeliner with a fine brush. I havent tried it all over my eye lid, i normally do a half & half with a lighter colour. I cant rave enough about this product, and the size is awesome too so i wont be running out in a hurry, however when i do i will be purchasing another one!

Tips: blend it well ladies. also recommend applying with a fine slightly damp brush for best results!

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo

I was really excited when these came out because eyeshadow was my favourite kind of cosmetic. I had the blue, green and purple shades. Each color came in a small glass tub with a plastic lid. The colors when inside the jar were beautiful solid metalic colors but when I applied them they were not as bright unless u applied it quite thick. I tried applying with a brush and that didnt work too well so I used my fingers and it applied way better. Because The colours were not bright enough for me, I would use these under some of my powdered eyeshadows creating different looks. It also made the powdered eyeshadows pop more and last from dusk till dawn. Because of that, I would pay $14 for one but Id love to see more shades in this range. Although 24hours is a bit over exhagerated, they do last alot longer then the average eyeshadow by miles. Or should I say hours.

Tips: These are great as a primer for underneath powder eyeshadow, they make the powder eyeshadow stand out way more as well as makes it last so much longer :)
