Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Eyeshadows in "On and On Bronze" & "Pink Gold"

Well Hello There everyone :) :) 
I hope you are all well :) 
I am so sorry that I have been very slow with my reviews I have had a tough couple of weeks 
If you follow me on facebook you would know why :) 
Unfortunately we had noticed one of our pups Patch got very ill very quick and had to be rushed into doggy hospital where today he is still there but not only that a few days later our other pup Buster got sick with the same illness but didnt survive we had to decide to let him go to sleep :( it was so so sad and very draining sitting in front of a laptop I just didnt have the energy or the want to blog im sure alot of you understand. 
Today I feel a little more spirited and missed blogging so here I am :) :)
Today I am reviewing 2 brand new Maybelline 24HR Colour Tattoo eyeshadows that I have added to my collection.  Some of you already know I have quite a few of these in my collection :)  If you missed out on that review you can click here to see it I reviewed 10 of them altogether :) :) 
Today I have 2 more to share with you :) :) 


I absolutely Love the packaging on these eyeshadows.  They are solid glass with a lid that screw tight shut.  The fact that they do not get exposed until you open them means they do not dry out easily and are as good as new even a year later (thats how long I have my other ten shades).  Another thing I love about the packaging is the glass is clear which means you can easily detect the shades you want which saves time and effort lol 
I bought these two eyeshadows from Boots.ie in which they cost €7.49 each or at the moment they are 3 for 2 ;)  which in my eyes is absolutely amazing value for them :) :) 
If you have never heard of the Maybelline Colour Tattoo's before here is the low down to what they are 
Maybelline Claim :  Dare to wear Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Gel eyeshadow. With up to 24HR staying power. Popping colour that glides on. Get inked!
Our technology creates super -saturated shadow. Cream Gel smooth’s on for vibrant colour that does not fade.   
Out of the 10 shades I have reviewed before 8 of them surely lived up to the Claim I absolutely love them they are amazing.  The formula on the other 2 shades I hated as they were very hard to blend and would not settled on my lid no matter what I did with them.  So Let me show you my 2 new shades 
On and On Bronze:  When I first saw this shade on the site I thought Hmmmm Looks very very like Bad to the Bronze which is one of my absolute favourites of all time :) 
When I got this little beauty in my hands I just couldn't help but swatch it straight away to see was I right.  I was very close :)  There is a slight difference between them 
On and On Bronze is a strong metallic Bronze shade with a cool toned finish where as Bad to the Bronze is less metallic bronze and more on the slight frosty side and has a warmer finish. 

 To the eye of a non beauty obsessive a swatch of each beside each other would look the same but to us fabulous beauty lovers and MUA's we would see alot of difference between the 2 :)  Anyways I love this shade its stunning and very very pigmented indeed.  Its so pigmented you have to apply lightly and build it up as it dries very quickly if you apply alot in one go it will look chunky on your lid which does not look well at all :)   If you like Bad to the Bronze you will love this shade :) 

next up is 

Pink Gold:  Oh This shade is stunning believe me :)   I have used this shade quite a bit the past couple of weeks :)  I am just in love with this shade it really is amazing.  There is no guessing what this shades is the name speaks for itself.  Its a stunning light pinky shade with shimmers of gold going through it.  It gives a slight frosty finish and looks amazing on its own.  I use this quite alot as a base as it makes like pinky powder eyeshadows more intense looking.  Alot of people might actually used this as a blush.  What I found with this shade is that it makes my hazel eyes pop.  I have a mixture of green, blue and brown in my eyes but when wearing this on its own it draws out the green in my eyes more :)  LOVE IT :) 

Both eyeshadows are very creamy.  They blend out very easy and look amazing on their own :) 

I will show you a look I did using "Pink Gold" as a base for my eyes in this picture I used a generous amount of Pink Gold and applied the pink of Wet N Wilds "Sweet as Candy" on top 

These eyeshadows definitely last all day long I have put them to the 12 hour test but to be honest i think that is good enough for anyone because been realistic no one wears makeup for a full 24 hours :) 
Everyone should at least try one of these to see how fabulous. 
Have you tried these yet ?
Until Next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter 











I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Eyeshadows

Hey there beautifuls :) 
Hope you are all good :) Any of you back to school this week??
3 out of my 5 kiddies are back to school :) :) They are really looking forward to it (for now) as they are getting bored and the weather in Ireland hasnt exactly been summery so less than half of their summer has been wearing wellies and jumping in puddles lol. 
Anyway todays review is on these Maybelline Color Tattoo Eyeshadows I recently got and marked off my wishlist yeeeeee :) 
These eyeshadows have been on my list for a long time now actually since they came out but of course 9 times out of 10 Ireland is the last or one of the last to get new products in.  When they came out in Ireland i still to this day have not come across any because my are doesnt seem to be with the times lol I think they need good old reliable Nina to work in their stores to keep them up to date (only kidding).  
Ok so doing a little research to date i believe these cost $7-8 to buy separately and in Ireland about 7 euro each which is a little more than what i would normally spend on one eye-shadow and If i was buying these from a store that works out i would have paid about 70 euro for all 10 of these shades.  
The packaging is brilliant.  They come in Glass pots in which i love as i feel they will last longer and you are getting 4g of product so for the price its well worth paying for.  The lids as you can see is black with a clear visable label stating what shades each one is again I love this as it saves rooting through all of them to get the shade you want.  There is also 2 different finishes with these eyeshadows shimmer and matte.  So I will move on and show you the shade then tell you my overall opinion of them :) 
Dare to wear our longest-lasting shadow.
Our ink technology creates super-saturated color.
Cream gel smoothes on for vibrant color that does not fade.  Lets see shall we :) 

25 Bad to the Bronze 
First up is Bad To The Bronze:  This is one of my favourites I just love the shade Of course anyone who likes neutral shade will love this too :)  I have actually been wearing this shade alot more than the rest as its the perfect everyday shade.  Now when they named this little beauty Bad to the Bronze they really did mean Bronze it as its a beautiful taupe shade with a bronze metallic finish.  It looks fantastic on its own or with eyeshadow on top.  This is going to last me a long long time as its extremely pigment and a little goes a long way.  
10 Fierce & Tangy
Fierce & Tangy:  A very pigmented Tangerine shade.  Ha Ha I love the name of this because that is exactly what it is :) This is a perfect shade for autumn coming in.  This is 100% matte and extremely pigmented.  Its soft and creamy and a pleasure to blend out.  This is for sure a buildable shade so there is no fear of over doing the orangey shade on your eyes this looks stunning on its own with a very dark black winged liner or with different shades of brown.  I love it and im sure it would look stunning on anyone with brown eyes especially :) 

30 Pomegranate Punk 
Pomegranate Punk:  Awwww another of my favourites :)  Just looking at this shade in its pot makes me smile :)  This is a beautiful burgundy with tiny silver shimmers.  Its so creamy and soft and again a pleasure to work with.  This shade looks amazing on its own and really makes my hazel eyes pop.  Stunning Stunning Stunning !!!!!

15 Audacious Asphalt
Audacious Asphalt:  Wow what a name I cant even pronounce it lol.  This is is a lovely charcoal shade with silver silver and i noticed a little brownish undertone to it.  This too is quite soft and creamy and easy to work with its surprisingly sheer at first but it is build able and a fantastic shade to use with to create a smokey eye :) 

40 Tenacious Teal 
Tenacious Teal:  A fantastic shade a medium teal blue with silver shimmer.  i am not one who really goes for blues as i feel it clashes with my eye colour but I have used this for a pop of colour on my lower lashline and it looks stunning :) A fun shade to play around with and very pigmented :) 

05 Too Cool 
Too Cool:  This is a Metallic cool white shade with shimmer.  Now this i have found different to the above shades.  I found this less pigmented and a little harder to blend it sort of swatches and applies patchy but it is buildable again.  This is perfect for the inner corners of your eyes or as a base for your eyeshadows to give them a good boost :) 
50 Edgy Emerald 
Edgy Emerald:  Oh don't get me started on this shade isn't it the most beautiful shade :) The name emerald I wouldn't have chosen for this eyeshadow, what I would have chosen would be something like "Under the sea" or something like that as this is more sea green with silver shimmer.  This i found to be extra shimmery to the rest but still stunning to wear.  This has to be built up as when first applied is a little on the sheer side but build up beautifully :) :) 
45 Bold Gold
Bold Gold:  This is such a handy shade to have in the collection.  Its a medium toned gold and quite shimmery.  It can be worn on its own or with various eyeshadows :)  This is a great base too especially for black eyeshadow as it makes a great look.  The fact that this is shimmery very shimmery it makes it harder to blend now dont get me wrong its a dream to blend but compared to the rest it take a little more work :) 
35 Tough as Taupe 
Tough as Taupe:  Another matte shade which i love.  This is a true taupe with greyish undertones in the pot but when applied its more like grey with taupe undertones :)  This is very highly pigmented and you really only need a tad to do each eye be careful not to over do it as once it hits your eye you literally on have a couple of seconds to fix it up before it dries completely.  I love this all over the lid on its own or using it on the outter corner or a base or even in the crease such a great eyeshadow to have i love it :) 
20 Painted Purple
Painted Purple:  A violet shade with shimmer.  Now this one i heard bad reviews about and to be honest i certainly wasnt excited about trying it out because of that.  That says alot for me as you know i love purples.  So i gave this little beauty a shot and yes its less pigmented than you would think looking in the pot.  It doesnt feel as creamy as the rest of them in fact it feels more water based in a way which makes it very sheer to apply.  I found at first this spread unevenly.  when i tried applying eyeshadow on top of it the eyeshadow appeared uneven.  It is not impossible to work with this shade you just have to make extra time to enjoy with one in particular its a fantastic shade and i love it but disappointed with the way it turned out and more surprised as i cant see why this one is different in consistency to the rest.  You will see in the photo below how patchy it applies and i tried my best to even it out on the swatch but there was no go. 

My experience with these eyeshadows has been nothing but pleasant.  Maybelline surely done well with these.  I found even without a primer these cream shadows lasted literally all day long until i took them off with even a smudge or crease.  Even using these as an eyeliner is brilliant as you have no fear of it move whatsoever.  I think the longest I have worn these is about 11 hours so i havent yet put them to the 24hr test hmmmmmm now to be honest who would wear makeup for 24 hours.  I will and do plan to wear these for that long just for the ultimate test and i will surely update you on how i get on soon :) 
I Also love how Maybelline thought out these colours.  Like they have everything from highlights to neutrals to dramatic bright shades something for everyone all in 10 shades :) :) I find it much easier to apply these with my finger but if using these on clients i could imagine you could use a smudge brush or any brush that has good stiffness but what i do advise to you all is when you are applying these start with as little product as you can as they are very pigmented then just work it to as strong as you want.  After all these do dry very quick.  I give them 10/10 for sure and i highly recommend them to everyone to try you wont be disappointed :) :) 
Have you got any of these yet if so which ones and what is your views on them :) 
Until Next Time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter
