SWATCHES - Maybelline 24 Hour Tattoo On and On Bronze

After feeling much love for my first ever Maybelline 24 Hour Colour Tattoo Eyeshadow in Permanent Taupe, it was only going to be a matter of time before I would get more.

Here are swatches of shade #35 On and On Bronze

My first impressions were that it reminded me of L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in Sahara Treasure, but Sahara Treasure has much more of an antique gold about it.

I wouldn't describe On and On Bronze as bronze at all.  If you look at my comparison swatches below you will see it's a lot more akin to MAC Satin Taupe than anything else I compared it to.  It definitely seems to have more of a mauve taupe undertone to it.

Unlike Permanent Taupe which is a completely flat matte cream/gel, On and On Bronze has quite a metallic frosty finish.  Again different to L'Oreal's Sahara Treasure which imparts some fine shimmer which this Maybelline one does not at all.

It was quite overcast today so I have taken some images with flash as necessary.
Sorry about the finger swipe in the pot too, note to self to remember to take first set of swatch photos in colour and not B&W setting - oops lol.
