I'm obsessed with finding Corinthian.. So far, no luck :( any suggestions? Also, check out some of Burberry's new spring eyeshadow colors, they look beautiful! Especially Rosewood. :)
Two that people sleep on is ULTA Toast and Twilight. I think Pink Sith has swatches of both. Toast is my favorite eyeshadow for anywhere, day or night.
Hi Michele, your videos are some of my favorites to watch! I was wondering if you could do a battle video on pink, nude, red (or all of the above ;) lipsticks? Thanks!!! xx
wow love the this, always wondered what the big hype about taupe, to me they all looked similar so why collect them all. but they do look different. I was hoping to see some mattes in your collection. great video
I don't know if it's the lighting or what, bit you look really pretty here! Can you do an eyebrow grooming video? Yours are so much nicer than mine lol.
Love this video... Thanks for sharing! Taupe eyeshadows are my fave as well, I own a few of them (Chanel, MAC...) & I think the one I love the most are from KIKO & Agnès b (Italian & French brands) ;)
LOVE this! I was going to Chanel today anyway to pick up Epatant (illusion d'ombre) (which they were sold out of -____-) so I checked out fauve and ended up loving it, so I went ahead and picked it up, along with mirifique (illusion d'ombre) and I love it! Girl, you're my favorite person to watch on youtube...tbh I consider you a friend, hahaa!
If you ever get another taupe eyeshadow, you have to try the Wet n Wild single in Nutty! It's gorgeous and great quality. I've also heard Tapestry Taupe by Covergirl is a good one too.
I love the taupes! I got the Chanel Taupe Grise for Christmas along with Vert Khaki, unfortunately my Chanel counter was out of the Fauve which was number 1 on my Chanel list. Happy New Year! Kellye
we have a similar colouring and i love taupes too :) iv started using macs satin taupe all over my eye lid with macs beautiful iris through the crease - just for something different
since you love taupes im not sure your into MAC's paint pots or not but i have recently discovered Maybelline's Color tattoos!!! Wowww amazing when i saw this video thats the first one i thought of in the color 35 Tough as Taupe!!! Great base its supposed to last up to 24 hours but the color payoff is like no other ive seen befor!!! Check it out i found mine at my local Target!
The color Taupe refers to the French name for the European Mole, Talpa europaea.
Originally, the name of the color referred only to the average color of the French mole, but like the colors pink and lavender, the name expanded (in the case of taupe beginning in the 1940s) to encompass a wide range of varying shades. It seems that this occurred because the color of the fur of the mole can itself exhibit a wide range of shades, from gray through yellowish, brownish, and even purplish.
My fiancée peaked over and say me watching this video and he said', "hey, is that Mila Kunis' half sister???" I said "right??" she does resemble her!!! I want ALL these eyeshadows, and a pandora bracelet lol!
Hi Michele! Taupe is actually gray-brown. It can sometimes have a purple undertone to it. One that I think you would like that is a satin/matte finish is Elf Pebble. It's always been said to be the dupe for Nars Ashes to Ashes but that one is actually a shimmer and I prefer the Elf. The Elf is hands down one of my all time favs! Thanks for showing them! xo~Crystal
You would absolutely love Bobbi Brown's Fawn (a more purple taupe) and Stone (more silver taupe). And her matte Grey is in my opinion more a taupe color then her Taupe.
I'm a totally taupe addict also! After purchasing satin taupe and unflappable, I have a hard time buying and wearing other colors outside of taupe shades haha! And now I'll def be adding fauve to my list of shadows :)
Taupe Taupe Taupe! he hee, You did say it a lot but that is what the video is about! I love tarte's new shadow stick in taupe and I like to put cover girls tapestry taupe over it! I like the taupe colors in the new naked palette too. Thanks for the video!
talking about a matte taupe you should try the maybelline eye tattoo cream shadow in "tough as taupe" it's a taupe matte base and it doesn't crease, it stays, and it's easily blended! check out swatches online for it <3
@beatdropped I was literally already typing the exact same thing, then I saw your comment. Tough as taupe is next on my list and I'd love to know what Michele thinks of it under all of those taupes! Michele I hope you see this!
Great comparison video! I was planning on picking up Nars Ashes to Ashes but I dont think I need it now cause I have too many of the ones u mentioned that are similar. Thanks girlie
Have you tried the WnW single in Nutty? I love it and I think it's in this family as well, a little more brown, but I would still call it taupe. -Heather
I was thinking of buying Unflappable when the collection came out but skipped it, I don't really know why now....If it ever come out again I will buy it! I'm thinking of trying to track down Coritnthian and Taupe gris but will see. Love the Wnw shadow!
My very first eyeshadow was given to me for Christmas by my mom when I was in 8th grade. It was a beautiful brown taupe from......are you ready for this....Merle Norman! :) She gave it to me with an iridescent white color that I could first apply so that the taupe was not too dark.
