    I love this color, it is so versatile. I love to use it as a crease color, to get that outer "v," as a liner. it's just a wonderful color and very smooth, even texture, very blendable, good...

    This is a color that I would like, grey, silvery, taupe. I do not notice any distinct brown or purple tones like others have. In any event, the color is a great everyday shade and the quality is...

    Great color, superb pigmentation. Although it is slightly similar to MAC's Satin Taupe, I wouldn't call it an exact dupe (when swatched). However, on the lid, the colors are basically...

    I absolutely love this color, It's a brownish, taupe-ish, charcoalish. I don't know how to describe it, but it's amazing. The color payoff is great, and it's such a great color to wear as a liner,...

    This is a great crease color! I mostly use it with MAC Copperplate on the lid, and MAC Blanc Type to highlight. It is very smooth, and blendable, and can also be used as a liner with the right brush.

    I bought Root Beer after reading all the rave reviews and now I practically wear this every day! I never thought I could look good in a neutral shadow, but this one works on my cool toned skin. I...

    Root Beer is a good eyeshadow from NYX. It is a metallic silvery grey taupe. I picked this up because it is supposed to be similar to MAC Smoke N Diamonds which I missed out on. I used this as...

    I picked this up in a trio not thinking I would use it. I really just wanted the two other colors. It turned out to be my favorite of the three. It's got a hint of purple but is still a neutral,...

    This isn't a color I would normally buy. I bought it just b/c of the great reviews here. I had it for about 3 weeks before I tried it, and I am so glad I did. It's a very smooth, silky...

    The BEST purpley-taupe ever. This so trumps Chanel Vega - I'm ashamed I spent so much for that CC logo. This is what you put on when you have time for only one thing. Fabulous color, texture,...

    It is a lovely shade of silvery taupe. This is one of their most popular shades, you can wear it with anything. Very pretty shimmering neutral. In the same group as MAC Satin Taupe... If you want...

    This color is so pretty. It is a cool, silvery dark taupe that is great for defining the eyes in the crease. I found that another cool look is with this on the lids with a bright purple liner.

    The PROS: This is a very pretty deep taupe eyeshadow. It has decent pigment, but applies sheer and then the color can be built up to whatever intensity you want. Its best to use over a primer to...

    Absolutely fantastic. NYX shadows beat MAC's, in my opinion, and I own plenty of each! Rootbeer is one of my all-time favorites - it goes on, for me, as a taupey neutral. Stays ALL day, no...
