Maybelline 24 Hr Metal Color Tattoo Review

Hola Mis Bellezas:

Happy International Women's Day!!!!! Wooohooo a day dedicated to us women. I think it should be everyday as many of us can agree, that it is hard to be a woman since we face many struggles everyday as we brake barriers. Anywho, cheers to us!!!!


Today i have the Maybelline color Tattoo and let me tell you they are my favorite. I used them every time I wear makeup as my eye bases. My lids are very oily and crease a lot, so I put eyeshadow to prevent creasing, as well I wear a primer prior to its application like UDPP, Too Faced Insurance or Prestige Primer to name a few.

As of December of last year Maybelline came out with their Metal version of the color tattoo. I was excited that when I saw it at the store I bought three, not knowing they were not limited edition. Later that day the first post from maybelline I saw on my Facebook were the Metal Color Tattoo ad which can be seen on the photo below.

I was surprised that these line came out in Canada first, before launching either in the U.S or Europe. Yay for Canada!!

Maybelline came with 5 colors: 55 Inked in Pink, 60 Silver Strike, 65 Gold Rush, 70 Barely Branded, 75 Electric Blue.

I however, bought 3 out of the 5, the One i didnt buy was 65 Gold Rush just because it looks very similar to Gold Bold which I own, so why have two gold when I rarely use that color. In case it goes on sale I might consider to buy.


However the color I just recently got my paws on was 70 barely branded at Shoppers Drugmart, I've been searching for this color since it came out, but not until this past Sunday that I found it!!!




I also like the feature that you can turn them upside down to see the color.



Here they are without the lid, I forgot to include Barely Branded in the picture as it was brand new and had the seal still on.



55 Inked in Pink: subtle pink and very metallic like.

60 Silver Strike: silver and very metallic like.

70 Barely Branded: sheer nude with a yellow undertone and not so metallic, this is very close to barely beige in shade but with a pink undertone but cannot distinguish which one is which.

75 Electric Blue: very sheer blue and not so metallic. I had high hopes on this one but it works for me.

So, this are sold at every drugstore like Walmart, shoppers Drugmart, Rexall, etc. this are found between $7.99 to $8.99 depending where you buy.

Have you bought any Color Metal Tattoo?

    1. Hi Steph! Thanks for your comment. Pomegranate Punk was my first Color Tattoo as well. This color believe it or not its quite wearable. You can just wear it as just a wash of color, or as a base for a sheer eyeshadow so is not too bright. This color is good for brown eyes.
