an experiment with the maybelline 24 hour shadows...


alright so everybody and their mother has heard about these shadows, my thoughts on them were obviously positive. but i thought, who wears make-up for 24 hours, besides prostitutes? so i used my sister in an experiment to put these shadows to the real 24 hour test. my sister gladly wore "tough as taupe" from 5pm thursday night, to 5pm friday night. i took photos at the beginning of the test (5pm thursday) then 10pm thursday night. then the next morning (friday) at 11am, then 2pm, then 5pm before she removed the makeup.
i'll cut to the chase and start off with the first photo.
here's 5pm, thursday the 23rd. just tough as taupe, no primer or anything.
5 hours later at 10pm, no creasing has occurred. 
..........................then she was sleeping..................
i took a picture the next morning after sleep and some homework. this is what i was waiting for, to see how it latest through the night.
wow! i was really impressed!! looks still intact after a nights sleep.
then we were going to go out for a bit to target, so she threw on some mascara, and we went on our way.
2pm, before target.
5pm rolls around and i was expecting some heavy creasing...after 24 hours of wear, come on now.
as you can see, the shadow is very sparse in certain spots, which was odd. also there seems to be a faint crease line. but all in all, i think this product holds up to the claims...maybe 22 hours shadow instead of 24? hahaha...good job maybelline! B+!!!
thanks for reading this and hopefully you appreciated this blog, it was fun to do!
