Tried True and Reviewed - Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Eyeshadow



Left to Right: Painted Purple, Tough As Taupe,  Edgy Emerald
What It Is?

• Ink technology creates 24HR wear shadow for our most intense, long-lasting color saturation
• Cream formula glides on without creasing and keeps color vibrant

• Ophthalmologist-tested.  Safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers

Pros: Can double as an eyeshadow or an eyeshadow base; stays on for hours even on oiler skin; ten shades to choose from
Cons: they are usually always sold out at my local drug store; of the colors, the purple could have been a bit more vibrant
Alternative: MAC Paints have been my go to for lasting eyeshadow bases, but the price point is double that of the Maybelline Color Tattoo
Would I buy again: Yes, I would, but I anticpate these lasting a long time so no need to re-up anytime soon

Comments: I am not a woman that shops drugstores for make-up (hair products, yes).  I'm a bit of a snob in that area, but I just had to try these and I'm glad I did.  Very good buy for those who are on a budget and love color.

MAC Fashion Sets

I have been on a serious shopping freeze for most of this year.  Before I purchased the glosses below, I don't think I stepped in a  MAC store in months.  I'm trying to save a certain amount of dollars (I made my goal the week before last by the way) and nothing was going to get in my way...lol  Anywho, this mini collection was kind of exciting for me.  These Fashion Sets include corresponding gloss, lipstick and nail colors.  Since I'm not a huge fan of MAC nail polishes and most of the lipsticks in this collection are permanent, I immediately purchased the lipglosses that would be LE (limited edition) items.

What I Got....

Left to Right: Impassioned Lipglass, Chestnut Lipglass, Morange Lipglass and Rebel Lipgass

I really would like one more colored gloss, Angel.  I was a big fan of the lipstick back in my clubbing days and I think I want to revisit. I'll try and upload how the colors look on my actual lips.  So far, Impasioned and Rebel are my absolute FAVS!
