New Maybelline Spring 2015 Color Tattoo Swatches Black Orchid, Hydrangea Hype, Rose Riot

February 19, 2015

Last week I posted some swatches of two new Maybelline Color Tattoo shades that were released for Spring 2015 (see them here) Petunia Punk and Hibiscus Heartbreak, but then I started hearing around the internet that there were three additional shades being released. Some people told me that they found all five shades in a display at Walgreens and Duane Reade called "Girls Night Out", while others said they saw them at CVS in a different display.

None of the Walgreens in my area had the Girls Night Out display...in fact, they didn't have any new Color Tattoos at all! I picked up the first two at Harmon's last week, and then I started checking all of the Walgreens and CVS stores in my area. Of course, the very last CVS I checked had them and I almost missed them completely because they weren't part of a display! They were sitting on top of another Maybelline display that had the Lash Sensational mascara and Color Molten eyeshadows in it...a sales associate must have just stuck them there because they didn't have a home. There were only 2 of each shade and these are limited edition, so I have a feeling they are going to be very hard to find.

Black Orchid is probably one of the prettiest Color Tattoo shades ever! It's a taupe with a hint of purple in it...just gorgeous!

Rose Riot is a pretty shell pink. It's actually a lot sheerer than it looks in the jar.

Hydrangea Hype is a cool icy blue shade. I don't normally wear blue eyeshadow, but this one's pretty subtle so I don't mind it.

Here they are swatched:

Here are the other two shades I posted last week:

Petunia Punk, Hibiscus Heartbreak

Overall, this is such a pretty collection, and since I'm borderline obsessed with collecting Color Tattoos, I'm so happy I was able to find all 5. If you've spotted these out and about, please drop a comment and let us know where you found them!

Ooh that black orchid! I want it so bad! I went looking at CVS today but no luck. :( If any readers are from the Boston area and have seen these new shades, please let me know where!

I saw them at CVS and didn't buy them. I went back after seeing this post because they're so pretty but they were already gone. Do you think they'll be stocking more?

I found all five today at Walgreens in Tucson. I picked up the ones I've been searching for. Black Orchid and Hibiscus Heartbreak. If I find these anywhere else I'll be grabbing more, they're beautiful!
