The only thing I've noticed about the Color Tattoos is that they don't have any matte shades, all the shades I have tried are heavy on the shimmer/sheen. You could get three Color Tattoo shades for the price of one Paint Pot. However, the price is much different, the Color Tattoos retail for as low as $5.94. In my experience the Color Tattoos wear all day without any creasing as well. It's a little less creamy than the MAC Paint Pot, but still feels very nice. The Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Branded is also a neutral champagne cream color. It is a nice creamy but not thick consistency. It's a great neutral champagne type cream color. Bare Study was the first Paint Pot I ever purchased, and was the first thing I had ever used as a primer/base. I don't think anyone is a stranger to the Maybelline Color Tattoos and in their new Metals line they released the shade Barely Branded, and when I saw it I immediately thought that it was a dupe for MAC's Bare Study Paint Pot. Hello hello! I'm here with a product comparison, and in my opinion an exact dupe.
