    Very confused by some of these reviews..People are describing this as matte chocolate brown and I don't find it to be anywhere close..To me(and on me), it's a medium toned brown with strong peach...

    I think that average describes this shadow really well. It doesn't look bad by any means, but it doesn't look great either. Originally, the MAC girl sold me this to use as a base shade to go with...

    Brown Down is the perfect chocolate brown e/s. The finish is Velvet and the color payoff is great, it's very pigmented. It only takes alittle bit and this e/s is great for a brown smokey eye. I...

    I use this honest brown color on top of the paint pot (painterly). I only put this on my eye lid. It has a very deep intense brown color, perfect for smokey eyes. It blends really good with brush...

    This shadow is wonderful! It’s a nice basic chocolate brown with a touch of shimmer, but nothing too much. It stays on nicely looks really nice when layered with lighter browns and champagne...

    brown down is a good neutral brown that goes with more reddish browns like swiss chocolate or b rich (which was LE) or for softer, more basic browns like charcoal brown and symmetry. love it....

    Nicely pigmented brown excellent for putting on top of brown liner for super staying power. It's a must have staple.

    I bought this hoping it would make a good crease shade. On me it's a sheerish medium brown that is pretty standard. However, I just can't get it to blend down as soft as I like. It's too sheer and...

    This rating was rather tricky for me. Even though I do like this eyeshadow, it is such a basic brown that after I bought it, I felt bad for paying so much money for such a simple shadow. Normally I...

    Only reason I wouldn't repurchase this is because I have too many similar colors. Overall a great medium matte brown that is neither too warm or cool. Smooth veluxe texture.

    A nice matte brown that can help neutralize other colors. Not too dark or light and great soft texture.

    a little warmer than espresso, but same finish. this works better in the crease than as a liner, but it does its job quite nicely. swapped this away- much too warm for my purposes.
