Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Gel Eyeshadow

I bought the colour socialite. I love this eyeshadow. It works both as an eyeshadow and as a base for eyeshadows if you want to make it a whole look. It glides on easily and stays put for a long time without creasing and trust me my eyelids do crease (they are both hooded and oily). I would also say don't be put off by colour is you think it's too dark. It is actually a bit different than what it looks like in the pot. It's less orange and more pink I'd say but definitely has the orange in it still. It also looks more natural on the eyelids. I personally like this, others will find this disappointing compared to the pot colour. Just something to be aware of.

These creamy shadows glide on and stay put all day. They also make a great base if you want to be a bit more adventurous, My only quibble would be the packaging. I feel these are best applied with a finger and after a while it becomes very difficult to get your finger in the pot and to the product (especially if you have nails). Overall a good staple eyeshadow.

Packaging is basic but typical of Maybelline. Affordable. I have a few shades of these. They work really well as an eyeshadow primer as a base prior to eyeshadow application. I do have some brighter shades which don’t work really as a primer. It’s a creamy texture. Blends well. If used as an eyeshadow primer I find it’s a good base for eyeshadow helping it to stay in place longer. I would recommend this product and repurchase more from the range.

I am obsessed with these cream eyeshadows! Currently I have the bronze and pink gold shades which are gorgeous. You don't need any primer and only require a small bit of product to swipe on your lid for an instantly pigmented, shimmering glow! Highly recommend to fellow beauty lovers.

I was originally introduced to this product when my daughter bought me the gold coloured one as a gift. I didn’t manage to finish that. Eventually gave it away to a work friend because her daughter needed a gold eyeshadow for a school play and it was becoming dry then. However, I have finished and repurchase the Creme de Nude shade. As others have said I use it as a base/primer. My eyeshadow ever creases with this underneath. My daughter uses MAC paint pot in Soft Ochre as a base and this is much creamier than the Colour Tattoo however considering the CT does the job for me I will continue to repurchase.

I love the texture of these eyeshadows, they feel and look geat on the lids. I've got a shiny grey and it looks awesome. It's a great product for the price and its a must for any makeup collection. I need to add some more of the other shades to my collection! 😍😁

I have this in shade 91 Creme de Rose, which is like a tanned beige colour. I don’t actually use it as an eyeshadow but I use it as a base for eye makeup instead. It works absolutely brilliantly and blends really easily with just a finger. Even though I use it under my powder eyeshadow, it’s still an item I couldn’t live without and it makes such a difference to the overall appearance of my makeup in general.

Need to invest in some matte shades of these as they blend really well. They have beautiful pay off and stay on the eyes well. Really like these.

I've got this in a couple of colours, which are nice and shimmery without being an inappropriate glitter bomb. Easy to warm up and spread over the lid with a finger, and diffuse at the edges. Long wearing, to the point where its harder work than I'd like to take them off at night. I don't reach for these often, but they're good to have for a simple but high impact wash of colour.

I've had two of these one a sparkly black and a gold brown one (pictured) and the pigmentation is wonderful- you only need one layer to get the boldness of the color, it stays put pretty well but with my eyes it can get a little runaway at the corners... haven't tried it with an eye primer but i don't think you'd need one. A good little eye shadow for a party/special occasion.
