Last week I shared with you the new Maybelline “The Nude Palette” and this week I’m bringing you some other new goodies from Maybelline. I’m a Color Tattoo collector, and so when I received the email from Maybelline showing all the new products to be on the look out for I was very intrigued to see there was going to be Leather Edition Color Tattoos. For those that are new to the game Color Tattoos are a cream gel eyeshadow that goes on smooth and stays put all day! There are five shades in this collection and I found four at my local Bed Bath and Beyond. The display only holds two of each color so if you’re on the hunt for these make sure you grab them quick!
The Maybelline Leather 24hr Color Tattoos pair awesome with colors on the Nude Palette and can be used as a base or used with the eyeshadows to create an awesome eye look. What I did notice about these colors is that they felt a bet more creamier than others I own and this made for ease of application. Each shade retails for $5.79 and are due out as early as July!
The first color is Vintage Plum. It’s a muted lavender that looks almost smokey gray.
The second color is Deep Forest. Deep Forest reminds me of the color of brown leaves after they’ve fallen from the tree and started to dry out. This color is a bit more sheer than the others so I had to apply it more than once to get a good color yield.
Chocolate Suede is a shimmery Cocoa Brown. I feel that this color may be a dupe for a color that was in the “Dare to Go Nude” collection called Sleek and Spice.
Dramatic Black is a deep charcoal black. It’s not as black the Color Tattoo Stroke of Midnight and is without shimmer.
Are the Maybelline Leather 24hr Color Tattoos a must have? I’d say not exactly. Vintage Plum and Deep Forest are shades that I don’t think there dupes for within the Color Tattoo family. Vintage plum also will work wonderfully with several colors found on the Nude Palette.
Love these colors! The black one will be great to double up for an eyeliner!
Oh my gosh – I need to find these STAT. I love color tattoos and these are so unique in shades – I’m on the hunt tomorrow… it’s on like donkey kong.
What a great find! I need to get my hands on Vintage Plum and Chocolate suede! Thanks for the great swatches! 🙂
Great swatches. I still haven’t tried any of the Color Tattoos. I need to jump on it.
I want the plum and deep forest. I’ve been on the hunt, but haven’t found them or the nude palette yet. Gotta try BBB. The matte color tattoos are my everyday staple, love ’em
Ooooh chocolate suede looks AMAZINGNESS! Love the swatches, everything looks so gorgeous. I need to get my hands on that Nude palette and some of these for sure. Great post!
Chocolate Suede is such a deep rich color! *adds to wishlist*
Very pretty shades! Chocolate Suede is my favorite from these!
There are shades of the Color Tattoo range that are more vibrant in color too, not sure if you have seen them? I do love this range and use it on myself, it is great for layering.
Great swatches!
I love the Color Tattoos. I want the matte ones from this collection

If I see Vintage Plum or Chocolate Suede, they will be mine! I rarely see the LE Tattoos, though. 🙁
Chocolate Suede looks amazing!
I like all shades, Vintage Plum most especially!
These look like a lot of fun! must hunt down ASAP!
They look really interesting. I’m actually not sure if I like them or not. I think I would need to play with them on my eyes.
I picked these up but I was really iffy on them. Wasn’t sure what they would look like. I sure HOPE and pray that I got chocolate suede. It’s SO pretty!!!
