Maybelline Color Tattoo Eye Shadow

I absolutely love this line of eye shadow.  The eye shadow above is Electric Blue and it is gorgeous.  This eye shadow is really pigmented so the color is very bright and this stuff lasts.  I usually don't use any type of primer for my eye shadow (even though I probably should) and it lasts all day and then some. 

This eyeshadow isn't a powder, it's more creamy.  I use my ring finger and dab it over my eye lid.  I apply it up to the crease but never above the crease.  You don't have to use much so a little will go a long way and the more you apply the darker it gets.  I like the fact that you can build up the color. 

Another great thing about this eye shadow is it makes an awesome eyeliner.  If I want just a hint of blue I grab my eyeliner brush and line my upper and lower lashes.

Another great color in this line is Gold Rush.



When you apply Gold Rush it looks like gold, it's not just a yellow color.  It has a lot of shimmer to it.  I call it my goddess eye shadow.  You can also build up the color with this one too.  The more you use the more gold and shimmery it gets. 


I also tried Emerald BUT it wasn't in the Metal line so it didn't have the impact I was going for.  It is still very pretty but it's a bit softer in color.  I wish they would have done a deep green color in the Metal line of Color Tattoo.  You can build up the color on this one but you don't get the same pop of color like you do with the Metal line.  I thought about applying the Emerald and then putting a light amount of Gold Rush on top....but I'm not sure how that will turn out.  If I try it I'll post some pictures. 

Be warned, it was named Color Tattoo for a reason.  This stuff lasts and is hard to remove if you make a mistake.  So with that being said if you make a mistake when you are applying it try to remove the shadow ASAP.  The longer you let it sit the harder it is to get off. 

All in all I love the eye shadows.  The glass pods they come in are small but should last a long time.  They are not very expensive I picked up mine at Walgreens for around $7 each.  You can find these eye shadows at most drugstores and Walmart.  I think you can also find them at my new favorite store Target.

Yes....I have finally discovered Target.
