Taupe: The perfect fitting black pants for eyes

In our experience, there isn’t an eye shadow shade more flattering on any eye color than taupe. Everyone looks good in taupe eye shadow.

Our own Makeup Bag is brimming with various shades of this universal color and today we’ve added this one to our list of favorites:

Smashbox Earth Mother Palette

Smashbox Palettes for PETA Earth Mother palette with three shades of earthy neutrals to complement any pair of eyes. And the shadows are 100% vegan — awesome!

In case you’re wondering what our other favorite taupe shadows are (not that you care or anything — because you probably have gorgeous blue eyes where ours are nondescript brown and need all the help they can get. But whatever, because like we said earlier, taupe looks good on everyone), we’ll just go ahead and list them here:

  • Chanel Safari
  • Urban Decay Stray Dog (new!)
  • MAC Satin Taupe
  • MAC Mothbrown (probably our most favorite of favorites)
  • LORAC Reverie
  • Bobbi Brown Fawn
  • Bobbi Brown Stone

Lined up on the counter, our husband thinks all these colors look alarmingly identical, but then, he also thinks Dr. Pepper tastes like rootbeer.

What are your favorite taupe eyeshadows?
