REVIEW: MAYBELLINE COLOUR TATTOO CREAM EYESHADOWS

I absolutely love using these Maybelline Colour Tattoos because they're very creamy and pigmented. They're also very blendable but once they dry they last such a long time (and that's why I love them!)

My favourite out of the four that I have is probably Permanent Taupe because I like using it for a quick smokey eye, which I've previously done a post about here. The colours I have are quite neutral but there's also a few other ones to choose from, like bright blue or yellow.
I would highly recommend any of these cream eye shadows, they look beautiful on the eyes alone or with eyeshadow on top, and aren't too expensive at around £4.99 each.

SMOKEY EYE UNDER 5 MINUTES

I love quick and easy eye looks, so today I'm going to show you a simple smokey eye that usually takes me under 10 minutes.

The first step is to apply eye primer. It's optional because the next product I'm using is a cream shadow, but if your eyelids are quite oily or your eyeshadow creases it's always a useful step.

Next take the cream eyeshadow of your choice, in this case I'm using the Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Permanent Taupe, and apply on the eyelid with a flat eyeshadow brush.
Once you've put it on, take a blending brush like the MAC 217 (my favourite blending brush), and start to blend the colour up into the crease.

If you want to make the colour stronger and set the eyeshadow to make it last longer, you can apply a similar shade of powder eyeshadow on top, however I usually miss out this step so it doesn't take as long.

Then do your usual eyeliner and mascara, and your simple smokey eye is complete!

REVIEW AND SWATCHES: MAYBELLINE SUPERSTAY 10H TINT GLOSS

One of my favourite lip stains is this Maybelline Superstay 10h Tint Gloss because it lasts so long, and the application is great.

I haven't gone as long as wearing it for 10 hours yet, but I can definitely say that when you put it on in the morning it will last all day. I also like the fact that it's buildable. The swatch on the picture below is only one coat, but you can definitely layer it to make the colour a lot stronger which is great for a bolder look, and it also means that it will last longer on the lips too.
The shade I have is Forever Fuchsia, but there is a range of colours you can choose from and they retail at £6.99 each.
