8 New Limited Edition Maybelline 24Hr Color Tattoos Review & Swatches

So this post is SOO long overdue (talking about september lol) but any who , I stumbled upon these at target (the brighter colored ones) and then another 4 shades at Rite Aid... I already am a big fan of the original color tattoos (See review HERE) and so I knew I had to have these when I came across them.  Luckily I had a gift card to both places (and I believe Rite Aid is BOGO 1/2 off on Maybelline right now).. Maybelline's new Fall 2012 collection is beautiful (new palettes, but I didn't pick any up this time).. 

So Here are some pictures..

The Display at Target - these bright colored ones have a matching colored mascara.  These color tattoos were priced at $5.84.

The Display at Rite Aid - These beautiful fall shades were priced at $6.69 and were accompanied by a variety of new products (from palettes to lipsticks, blushes etc).. 

From the 2012 Jewel Tone (bright colors) Collection:
- Ready, Set, Green
- Blue on By
- Fuschia Fever
- Test My Teal

From the 2012 Fall Fashion Week (neutral colors) Collection:
- Barely Beige
- Gold Shimmer
- Mossy Green
- Rich Mahogany


And bring on the swatches:













Pros:
- inexpensive
- last long 
- can use as a base or wear alone as an eyeshadow
- a lot of product


Cons:
- some colors don't perform as well (some can be splotchy, the really glittery ones)
- some people have complained they crease (not that I have experienced that)
- Hard to find (displays only have a few in stock) - luckily i was literally the first person to grab these at both stores when the sales associate barely just put them up.


Overall, I definitely would recommend these. They are fairly inexpensive and get the job done and last for a long time. These did not make my eyelids feel dry at all despite the long wear.  I did not experience any creasing with these whatsoever (as some people have experienced, and i myself have somewhat oily lids, especially in hot weather).. These are great to wear alone or as a base and they are great to wear together (the bright colors together and the fall shades go beautifully and accompany each other very well)



See how much I LOVE the color tattoos? My Collection! 



Do you have any? if you do what are some of your favorites?
