Maybelline Color Tattoo - Bad to the Bronze

I might have mentioned this in the past few posts but I'm in my busy season at the moment.  Usually I like to wear powder shadows and try to add some dimension to my monolids  but right now I don't have a lot of time in the morning since I'm so tired.  So recently I started to use Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze.  I use this on my lid with some brown eyeliner and I'm good to go!  

What I like about this is that it really adds dimension to my eye and it's not flat.  Depending on how the light hits, it can look dark and light.  I think it gives my eyes some dimension, which really helps since I'm so tired. It just makes me look a bit more awake.  I bought this when the Color Tattoos first came out and this was on sale.  I rarely wore this because I thought it was more of a summer colour, like bronze skin.  My mind has  changed and I think it actually is a pretty natural colour for everyday wear.

What I absolutely love about this is the staying power.  In addition to monolids, I have very oily eyelids.  Before discovering eye shadow primer, my shadow would crease before lunch.  When I apply this, I don't use eye shadow primer, mainly because it's an extra step to my morning, and it lasts for 10-12hrs.  I know this because I'm actually in the office for that amount of time and it's still there when I get home.  This is if I don't rub my eyes or something.

I believe I bought it at Shoppers Drug Mart for about $8.99 on sale.  It's available at Shoppers Drug Mart, Rexel's Pharma's Plus, and Wal-mart.  It's a lot cheaper at Wal-mart since they've rolled back on the prices.  I think it might be around $5-6?
