Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo Review

great for an eye shadow base and affordable. they are very pigmented and glide on easy. highly recommended this product.

I really like this product, it is great as a base, makes eye shadow last so much longer which is always a great thing. I have mine in Barely Branded which is a great colour for making eye shadows over top stay true to their colour and more pigmented. I also love to use this colour in my inner corner to make my eyes look more open and awake. This product is great to put on in a hurry as it makes you look more put together even though all you've done is just slapped it on hence the title 'lazy girls dream'.

After hearing and seeing all these amazing things about this product I was as giddy as a teenage girl at a one direction concert when I finally purchased one! I got mine in painted purple because I just LOVE a vibrant purple and it didn't disappoint it really is purple. I love the fact that you control the intensity, if you want it light don't apply much, if you want a vibrant look go liberal!

The colour did last and last BUT I found that getting an even application of it was difficult it would end up looking patchy, HOWEVER I am still looking forward to getting more colours and am definitely recommending it to my mum.

I love these shadows! They're so creamy and long lasting, and there's some really lovely colours in the range.

Can be worn on its own, or as an eyeshadow base. Very pigmented and easy to blend. I don't wear makeup for 24 hours but have worn this for 16 hours at least and my eye makeup held well. I love 'em but I wish that Maybelline would come out with a beige matte shade.

I've got really oily lids with deep set eyes, so even with primer this still creased (grrr!). However - If I just use it on the wee part of my upper lid near the lashline that doesn't disappear under my "fold" it stays put ALL day! first shadow ever to do that even withOUT primer!! I like to use the "barely branded" (kind of a pale cream/nude?) just to highlight my upper lids, as I like to use coloured liners on the lower lid, and it gives a nice opened effect, paired with an awesome lengthening mascara ofcourse :) It has a nice smooth creamy consistency and is easy to layer up for a more intense colour if that's what your after, or a nice light coating for just a wee bit of highlighting.

So if you don't have shadow hating lids like me this would be great for you! Even in saying that, Its still the best one I've tried on my lids anyway- just not near the crease.

These colourt tattoos are fantastic.

In terms of quality they are very similar to Mac Paint Pots.

I started out with Tough as Taupe. The consistency is buttery and it is very pigmented, however this is much more of grey than a taupe. I use this on my lids and then put Mac Howzat in the crease and on the outer lid to smoke it out.

I recently bout Nude Pink which is a dupe for Mac Painterly Paint Pot that many people use as an eyeshadow base. I was pleasantly surprised - it's a lovely muted pink that you can wear on its own with a slightly darker crease colour, or as an effective base.

These don't dry out as fast as the Mac Paint pots.

I'd like to get bold gold but have heard that the pigmentation is patchy on that so will do a little more investigating.

Overall, a great product that I would recommend to all.

I was a little sceptical about these, I bought 2 x shades, the pink and taupe. But I am really happy with both! They are very pigmented, easy to apply with either fingers or brush and they do actually last the distance whether day or night. I use these as a base overtop of my eye primer and I love how good these are! I often wear these as a day work look and I use concealer/eye primer first and then apply the colour tattoo on top. Then I add a eyeshadow if I want. At the end of the day, the colour is just as pigmented as if I've just applied this! No fading, streaking at all. Just love it. Highly recommend as a cheaper option as some other brands. Give this a go! :)

I wasnt to sure about these when they were first advertised, didnt think that they would work but I am glad that I bit the bullet. I wouldnt say they would have 100% pigment in them, considering they do have more of a shimmer finish but they are great for a base with either a day or evening look. I have used this on myself and also when I do my friends make up and I have recieved a good finish with the eye looks every time. The only thing that I would like to see is if they brought out more of a matte skin colour shade (like MAC painterly) just an idea :) Great cheap alternative though

I bought the white shade of this and it works really well. I use it as a base for my eyeshadows when i want them to last all day or all night and they work fantastically. I havent used it on it own yet but it definitely stops my shadows from creasing or fading during the day and also works really well with pigments / loose shadows as it give it something to stick too.
