Have you ever fallen in love with an eyeshadow? I’ve been there. & they so rarely break your heart (unless it is limited edition, breaks, or gets a formulation change…gasp!) I’m in love & it is limited edition so I’m informing you that you need to go get the Sephora Collection Outrageous Prisma Chrome Metallic Eyeshadow in Taupe #6. This is apparently limited edition (I didn’t know that when I bought it) but when I saw it on Pink Sith’s blog post here was just too fabulous to pass up. She loves taupe too so we’re eyeshadow sisters.

You can see this doesn’t lean as brown in the pan but it comes out in the swatches. This comes in plastic packaging but it doesn’t feel cheap. I always like the clear window on top so I know what I’m looking for. The eyeshadow itself is quilted & it was a bit heartbreaking to ruin it. Pretty. I know this is $16 which I normally don’t pay for a single eyeshadow from a brand I haven’t played with in person but you also get 0.12 oz of product. For reference, that’s 0.05 oz in your common MAC shadow. Now $16 seems like a bargain eh? Especially because this is so pigmented that I barely need to use much.

Let’s talk about taupe. There is a lot of different kinds of taupe. This is glorious. This particular taupe is metallic & lays somewhere between cool brown & cool silver-y lilac-y grey. Its taupe, it isn’t hard to explain okay? What you DO need to know is how amazingly pigmented this is. I’ve swatched so you can see it both wet & dry.Top is foiled bottom is a light finger swatch.

I did this eyeshadow look before filming my February 2013 Favorites video & my Glossybox February 2013 box video. You can check out how it looks on film there! & don’t forget to subscribe! I used it dry on my lid & dampened (or foiled if you prefer) on my crease. If it looks patchy at all it is because it is metallic & caught the light not because I go out lookin a hot mess.

Here it is…& yes the smile is real. Because I’m wearing taupe. A fabulous taupe. A taupe I wasn’t able to compare to any of my other taupes. TAUPE. It makes me happy.

So there you have it, a whole bunch of talking about this fabulous Sephora Collection Outrageous Prisma Chrome Metallic Eyeshadow in Taupe #6 so hopefully you’ll appreciate it. The name is a bit ridiculously long, but I’ll allow it. After all, its taupe.
