    EDIT: I find myself using this more as a contour color! I like that I can build up the color, since I'm new to contouring and afraid that I might over-do it. I like this shadow quite a bit....

    My HG for contouring hands down. Nothing compares or comes close and for the price...you can't beat it! Little goes a long way so it will last a very long time before having to re-purchase....

    This is my favorite color of all of my NYX Shadows. I have very fair skin and some taupe shadows look very harsh on me. NYX Taupe is soft,warm, and mellow. I often use NYX Taupe for my crease...

    I use this blush for a contour color and it works great! It is cheap and has great staying power. You must be careful to apply it lightly if using it as a contour color because it is really...

    I ordered Taupe so I could use it as a contour color under my cheekbones. The color is a light and cool tannish brown (terrible with descriptions, pics attached). To me the color is the opposite...

    I agree with the previous reviewer; this is chalky and not at all pigmented. It didn't show up at all on my lt. med. skin. It has the same great texture that I love about NYX eyeshadows but not...

    This is very soft and easily blendable, but it 's not very pigmented and shows up a bit chalky on my NC30 skin. I'll use this pot, but I don't think I'd purchase it again.

    This is not a good color for us DDD. Excellent quality for an affordable price($3). Will be wonderful for PPP, LLL, MMM, etc...Finely milled. Feels like silk.

    I use this for my brows. My tatooed brows have turned red and I was searching for an inexpensive way to cover them with something that could withstand a day at a pool. Mac Crayon Fling (non-red...

    This shadow just does not show up on me, no matter what I use as a base. Even though I am very pale, it blends right in to my skin. NYX shadows are awesome more often than not, though, so I won't...

    Taupe is a nice, basic neutral staple, so if you're looking for one, this is a good bet. I don't use it very often because I usually go for richer colors, but if I want a more natural or...

    Taupe is a nice very light brownish/caramelish colour. It is a darker gradient of sahara which is a darker gradient of nude. For an evening look I use this as a base but I also use it as...

    NYX has terrific eyeshadows and this shade is no exception :) Taupe is a matte light brown, which is great when you want to wear a pretty natural eyelook. It reminds me of Maybelline Earthy Taupe...
