I’m sure you have already heard many raving reviews about the Maybelline Color Tattoos however I have never mentioned them on my blog before so knew I had to share them with you. Over the past year I have become a massive fan of cream eyeshadows and have increased my love for them. They are creamy and soft to apply but don’t budge once they have dried, they’re also smudge and crease free. As the name suggests these are meant to last for 24 hours, surely people don’t wear makeup for that long? I don’t wear my makeup anywhere near as long as that so wouldn’t actually need the staying power to be that long, the longest I’ve worn these is around 12 hours and it’s still intact and the end of the day.
They all come in little acrylic pots which you can easily see the shade inside without having to open it, this is something I really like as it saves a lot of time when looking through shades especially if there is a specific one that you are looking for. I love to use these most when I’m having a more lazy day with my makeup, they look beautiful used on their own as an all over colour but are easy to blend if you wanted to use more shades together. I personally find these comparable to the Smashbox and MAC alternatives not just in formula and pigmentation, but also that they last just long on the eyes.

Metallic Pomegranate | On and On Bronze | Pink Gold | Eternal Gold |
As you can see all of the shades are highly pigmented and have a beautiful shimmery finish.
Metallic Pomegranate: Maroon with hints of both red and brown.
On and On Bronze: Metallic bronze with cool undertones.
Pink Gold: Light rosy pink with cool undertones.
Eternal Gold: Medium yellow gold.
Overall I am in love with these and there isn’t anything I can fault about them, I’m definitely going to be adding more shades to my collection very soon. They retail at £4.99 and are a great budget friendly option if you’re looking to try out a new cream eyeshadow.

I bought Pink Gold and a colour from the 'Leather Effect' range, Vintage Plum, just yesterday. I love them already! I wanted to get On & On Bronze so badly but they unfortunately only had a tester pot in that shade so I couldn't! I can't wait to try some more already, especially Eternal Gold :)

I haven't tried any from the Leather Effect range but they look lovely! Oh that's such a shame, I had the same problem before I got it as they always seem to sell out quickly! x
They are all such eye candy (no pun intended). haha I love them all, but that Metallic Pomagranite is so fab. I may need to pick that one up. :)

Great review, Rebecca! I bought eyeshadows in taupe, gold, and silver when they first came out and I'm so happy they came out with more colours!

I will never be bored of hearing about them I need to keep being reminded to pick them up and try them especially as they are only a fiver which is so cheap, on and on bronze is such a gorgeous colour you can't wrong I don't think I will make sure thats the shade I get, stunning photos as always babe xxx
I really want to get more shades, they are so beautiful! Thank you :) x
Your blog posts are always such quality darling. I haven't actually tried the Maybelline 24hr tattoos but it's been on my list for AGES now. I think I just need to wander into my nearest drug store and pick up a few. On and on bronze looks like the one that will be my favourite. x
Thank you so much! One and on bronze is the most versatile, I wear it most days :) x
So pretty, these are amazing =]
