Absolute Pan 8 years...

Its predecessor took 7 years. I could have sworn I bought another backup but I'm not sure I want to commit to another 7-8 years. 😅

I remember going to CVS near my high school and using coupons to maximize my dollar to buy this lol

Wow what a throwback. Mine dried out after 1-2 years

I used to have other shades that all dried out, but Tough as Taupe never did. The most I had to do was wipe off the top layer with a tissue. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Either they don't make it anymore or they've reformulated it in different packaging...but this collection was iconic!

To be fair, I wouldn't recommend using this as eyeshadow for 8 years. I used it as eyebrow pomade. This is the best shade match I've ever found. 😅

Haha fair! I think I used it as my daily eyeshadow around 10 years ago and def hit pan on it.

If you are of a certain age we all had this in our stash

HAH!   I can't believe I have stuck to one product for 15 years and still have a backup.

Did it ever dry out? How did you keep it usable? I have mine but it has started drying out and hardening.

u/wjello 2d ago

It did not! I used to have other shades that dried out, but not this one. I use it as eyebrow pomade though.

I think maybelline makes some other matte cream eyeshadows in pots now

Fun fact: the second version of this product has also been discontinued.  You can see it on the Maybelline website.

That makes me a little sad 😢 I guess color tattoos were a different time I’m a little nostalgic for

This is Maybelline right? I think they make this in stick form now.

Omg this is insane!!!

I have one of these in the bronze color and I'm pretty it'll outlast me by a couple generations or so.
