    Sheer, but not-too-sheer light beige-tan color, not grey enough to be taupe, in my opinion, but a good neutral in its own right. Matte finish, terrific texture (light and velvety) and good...

    This is GREAT for contouring. I've heard many wonderful reviews about this and decided to try this. I've used bronzers before to contour but they always turn out orangy on me. Taupe is a very...

    Great for contouring, especially for fair-medium skintones. I use this for the illusion of a slimmer nose, jawline, and sometimes cheek bones. Definitely blend the powder out or your face will...

    I bought this for contouring and for me it's working well. I use a light hand though as I find it's quite pigmented (NC25 brunette) and blend really well. Would purchase again.

    This eyeshadow is very soft, smooth, and silky but it did not show up on me AT ALL, and I have a lightish-medium skin tone. I definitely wouldn't recommend this, there are a zillion other colors...

    I bought this on a whim a few months ago during an Ulta sale. In the pan, TAUPE looks like a matte brown'ish gray. Doesn't really show up on my olive-tan skin; the texture is nice,but I don't plan...

    I have pale pale skin and I use this as a cheekbone contour color. Very subtle and natural looking, but still provides a beautifully contoured shape for my face. HG status!

    I think the color payoff looks pretty pigmented, just like the color of the product. It is a little chalky, probably because it has a greyish cast to it. I bought it because a couple of Youtube...

    It's chalky on my hand and I get a slight contour on cheeks.. The powder itself is soft, but pigment is lacking.

    I love using this blush to contour! I heard that this colour is a great dupe for MAC's emote blush. When I use this to contour, it looks so natural. Great packaging and good price=)

    This is one of my most versatile colors. I not only use this for an everyday natural eye look but works great for contouring. I rarely repurchase colors but this is one I'm tempted to stock up...

    This stuff's a little too light for contouring, to be honest. On my NC25 skin (which isn't dark in the least), the product pay-off is minimal, and I really have to layer it on to start getting some...

    Recommended by christianadivine. This is my first contouring blush :) I'm an NC37 and it's very subtle on me. Looks very natural and goes on very smooth. Easily buildable and blendable :)
