This is a very cool toned, satin-y purply taupe that is exactly what I've been looking for. The other taupes I've tried have been too warm for me (Wet n Wild Nutty, MAC Satin Taupe) and pull a...

My favorite everyday shadow. My eye makeup goal is Marianne Faithfull circa 1967 -- neutral shadow, a dark liner, and loads of mascara -- and this shadow fits the bill perfectly. I love this...

I have the repackaged version of Tastefully Taupe that I purchased a few weeks ago. I am not sure if this has been reformulated as part of the repackaging. I am disappointed in the color...

I am in love with this eyeshadow! I bought 2 just in case Maybelline discontinues it :P Is the perfect taupe color: not too dark or too brown but still has a great pigmentation and shows up on the...

I'm on the fence with this. It is quite shimmery with some shiny fallout that happens easily because the shadow is very soft and gets all over. The shimmer makes my crepey lids look like shiny...

One of my HG eyeshadows!! Everyone should try this, if not for the price. In the pan it is a shimmery, neutral taupe and on me, it wear more cool-toned. This is one of those shadows that you can...

This is a staple in my easy-to-get-to-makeup. I don't stash this or hide it under the sink, that's how you can tell when it's a great cosmetic item! It's a beautiful taupe, may lean slightly...

This is what I wanted MAC Satin Taupe to be. I think Maybelline has improved the quality of its makeup line since I was a teenager and this eyeshadow proves that. It's a nice, neutral true taupe...

This is a highly pigmented and long wearing cool leaning taupe, more grey than brown. Very versatile color. It reminds me of a Burberry color I swatched but did not purchase. Classy and pretty. I...

I picked this up at Walmart last week, along with Nutmeg, for they looked like great everyday neutral shadows that I could just throw on without putting a lot of effort in. God knows I have lots...

I purchased this shade based on the MUA reviews, but Tastefully Taupe did not look on me as I'd hoped. The shade is a very cool looking greyish-brown in the pan, but when I applied it, it looked a...

More and more, I am wondering if it's really necessary to pay top dollar for eyeshadows when there are products like this available for less than $5 (and that's Canadian). I'd been eyeing this...

Thanks to Makeup Alley I have found another gem I might have passed up. Maybelline shadows have been extreamly hit or miss with me (mostly miss). In the past, I have found them to be dry,...
