Maybelline Colour Tattoo's xx
15:00
Yesterday I picked up the Maybelline Color Tattoo's.
I got the colours 20 Painted Purple, 25 Bad to the Bronze and 40 Tenacious Teal.
When purchasing in store, I was really disappointed with my local Priceline.
All the swatches had dried up, and because of that, I purchase because of colours that "looked nice" and I will explain why in a minute, why I was disappointed.
I love the packaging kind of. I have found a lot of the packaging labels were very off center, more so the ones on the bottom, which I did not take a photo of, oops. This is really due to mass production. I hate it though, as a blogger, products I love and blog about, I want to showcase them at their best. No biggy, but I do love they fact they are glass pots.
I love these a fair bit as eye shadow bases or just alone. Once it's on, it's set and doesn't budge.
Yesterday, I walked down the street with it, and with the minor sweat, no budging. Even removal with eye makeup remover was a bit hard to make it budge.
I was really really happy with my brown and blue colour, BUT I wish I had the chance to swatch the purple in real life properly. I love the shimmery-ness in these, which is half the reason I got them. I will be using them as a lid colour.
In the pot, it looked like a gorgeous deep purple. When I got home, It was nothing like it.
I had almost no shimmer like the blue and brown, and I actually found the purple to be a bit patchy during application. It was nothing like the other two.
You may not be able to tell in these photo's but in the pot it looks to be a nice deep phantom purple. Once I swatch or use it, it goes almost to a lavender colour. I have also noticed that it loves the little lines in the skin, and I had to layer it to get a good colour.
I will see how I go with this product a bit further down the track.
If it doesn't improve within the next couple days I will be returning this product.
In my full review, I will post how I have gone with this certain colour and whether I have returned it or not.
