Now they both have simliar packaging, glass jar with a plastic lid. The benefit one does have a lovely swallow design on it but they are pretty similar.
Lets talk about formula now, the Maybelline one I find you have to warm it up with your finger a little where as the Benefit one is a lot more creamy which I personally prefer and find a little easier to apply.
I find both last equally well on the lid on their own without creasing. They also work great as a good base for an eye look, especially something like a smokey eye but also look beautfiful on their own.
Now to the swatches!
Now they are not exact dupes, the Maybelline Colour Tattoo is a lot more bronze (hence the name!) compared to the Benefit Creaseless Cream. However they both have this shimmer/sheen to them. They are both applied lightly here showing how pigmented they both are.
So it isn't an exact dupe but if you're on a budget the Maybelline Colour Tattoo's are great and a cheaper option compared to Benefit or MAC. I do prefer the Benefit Creaseless Cream because they are so creamy and work best on me.
Maybelline Colour Tattoos retail for £4.99 and are available here.
Benefit Creaseless Creams retail for £14.00 and are available here.
Have you tried either of these?
Yep I noticed this too! I've got the colour tattoo on my 'to get' list and Benefit on my wish list haha. Great post :)

I love the Benefit ones, they are so easy to use you should definitely get it :)
DeleteBirthday Suit is my absolute favourite! It's pretty expensive, though, so the Colour Tattoo definitely looks like a good option on a budget.
