maybelline color tattoo vs mac paint pots

As you see the value is a good one considering MAC gives you. The heavy glass jar are much like MAC Paint Pots and are. (Swatched left to right: Pomegranate Punk, Painted Purple, and Tenacious Teal) (Swatched left to right: Edgy Emerald, Bold Gold, and Fierce & Tangy)

(Swatched left to right: Bad to the Bronze, Audacious Asphalt, and Too Cool) I didn’t try them as an eyeliner but I imagine if you took a little time with them you can easily multitask them as an eyeliner as well. They work great on their own in most cases for a wash of bold eyeshadow or as a base for pigments or eyeshadows. Texture is on par with MAC Paint Pots but seemed a little thinner in consistency but not so much you’d notice the difference. I can easily use a finger to blend color out easily without issues however the cream shades sans shimmer proved a little more challenging as they applied patchy and uneven plus I found it difficult to build the color up. Dry down time is just right here as the product remains dewy to the touch just long enough for me to build the color up and blend out without drying down too quickly but still quick enough that it isn’t “wet” for long after application.īlending proves easy enough on the shimmer shades (there are four matte, creamy shades and six shimmer/metallic shades). Truly their promise of long wear absolutely held true for me (I have drier lids, not oily ones but I’ve heard similar success stories with those who have oily lids). I can get a full day out of it and well into the evening without any issues. I didn’t have a hiccup with creasing issues and it wore true to color without fading for that time as well. I find the product will wear well from morning until evening (8 to 10 hours of wear) without primer. The formula has a certain density but still has a creamy, soft feel once it warms up.

These are a cream shadows that promises a 24 hour wear and in many cases you’re looking at a solid wear time along those lines from morning until night with little to no creasing, fading, or smudging on certain shades. Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eyeshadows come in ten shades (please can there be more now?) that are available from $5.99-$7.99 at drugstores.

I’ve seen these gems for as little as $5.99 at drugstores and when there’s a BOGO (Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off) you know its a solid gold beauty budget. Possibly the best release to date is their brand new, affordable, crazy cool Color Tattoo 24 Hour Eyeshadows. Maybelline has consistently released some very high quality products under their Eye Studio Collection for the last two years or so now.
