It’s getting warmer out there and warmer temps mean oilier skin, especially around the eyelids. A major beauty blunder is creased eyeshadow, so I wanted to give the Maybelline Color Tattoo cream shadows a try. They boast 24-hour budge-proof wear and, while I had no desire whatsoever to sleep in my makeup, I can testify that they did not smudge during the 9-hour day I spent running around the city. A $6.99 price tag is unbeatable against the competition (Smashbox Limitless Cream Eyeshadows, $19 or MUFE Aqua Cream, $23).
For a quick and easy bronzed look I chose the color 45: Bold Gold – a medium-dark, shimmery gold. This shade looks fabulous on it’s own, but for the sake of a more dynamic tutorial, I decided to set it with a powder shadow. The great thing about these shadows is that while they can be worn sheer, effortlessly swept across the lid, they are completely buildable as well! Check out the video for the full scoop.
What do you think? Will you be giving Maybelline Color Tattoo cream shadows a try? Have any warm weather make up tips? Let us know in the comments.

As someone with oily lids .. the Maybelline Color Tattoo are pretty good, but for me .. they aren’t quite as good as the Makeup aqua creams 🙂
