♡ Dual Product Review: Urban Decay Finishing Spray & Maybelline Color Tattoo ♡

Hi guys! I'm going to do something a little different and do a dual cosmetics review, one high-end and drugstore product. Starting off with the Color Tattoo:

I got one of Maybelline's Color Tattoos in "Bad To The Bronze" and this is actually the first drugstore makeup product that I've gotten in a long while. I chose to get this certain color because I've heard other amazing reviews about it and I thought the shade would be versatile and easy to work with different neutral/shimmery shadows (I'm not one for colorful eye makeup). I honestly couldn't be happier with it. This is a cream eyeshadow and very buildable. It's a sheer application which looks like a shimmery champagne but you can build the color up to make a deeper, more bronzy shade.

I use this mainly as a base to a pressed/loose eyeshadow (applied right after eye primer), and so far, it's amazing! Currently, I've been using this with Urban Decay: Naked 1 palette's "Hustle". I had been trying to find a way to create a very light, shimmery smokey eye, and this product does just the trick for me to achieve it. 

Now, for Urban Decay!

I got this spray originally because one of my cousins has it; I used her's maybe once or twice and I had always been curious as to how it truly works after being able to wear it for an extended period of time and to test it for over a week to see if it does what it claims to.

Urban Decay's "All Nighter" Finishing Spray is supposed to basically do what the name suggests/hints at: Keep your makeup in place for a long period of time. While I've been curious, I'd also been extremely skeptical of whether or not it'd do anything and turn out to be a waste of money. 

After testing this out for about a month, I haven't really come to a set, drastic conclusion. This honestly isn't a "hallelujah!" product or anything that seriously makes a difference to holding up your makeup throughout the day/night. 

Perhaps it's helped slightly to help keep my makeup looking fresh, but there isn't a huge difference. I could've gone without buying this, but I'll continue to use it and maybe use it more frequently throughout the day to see if that helps in any way. 

Thanks for taking time to read this! Please feel free to comment any opinions or post requests!
