New limited edition Maybelline Color Tattoos have me very excited. They are all matte and remind me quite a bit of Mac's Paint Pots. "Nude Pink" looks like a slightly more gray pink dupe for "Painterly." "Just Beige" looks like a slightly more peachy dupe for "Soft Ochre", and "Matte Brown" is just a bit deeper than Mac's "Groundwork." Nonetheless, they are much cheaper and as good . . . if not better. I only hope that Maybelline decides to add these to their permanent line. It seems kind of odd that such basic, neutral colors that would work amazingly as eye shadow bases are not already part of the line. I found mine at Bed, Bath, & Beyond. Below is a list of the Pros & Cons.

Pros:

• Very pigmented & creamy
• Blend nicely on eyelid
• Do not crease - will work as an eye shadow primer 
• All matte
• Great price point ~ $6.99

Cons:

• Limited edition, which means the stock of these is low and they will be hard to find. My best suggestions are Walgreens, Rite Aid, or Bed, Bath & Beyond.
• The "Matte Brown" is probably the least creamy, smooth of the group. It can go on a little clumpy, but can be buffed out. A little goes a long way.

Overall Rating: 9/10 

Would definitely repurchase these over and over again.
