A Little Background-
When I was NOT into makeup, since then I love "taupe" shade. They make such a beautiful color for eyes of every skin tone and they make them pop. So, when I came to know about Smashbox Pronto I thought I would write about it here on Shopping, Style and Us. |

A few things to note about "Taupe" eyeshadows-
- They don't always look the same. Some are more greyish, while others have some gold/bronzey undertones to them.
- Nonetheless taupe shade eyeshadow (can) make a potential base in eye makeup.
- If applied all over the lid alone, they come out to be very dramatic and romantic.
- If you apply them near the outer lashline, they make they eyes wider and full of depth.
- I personally love taupe shades on all type of eye colors - green, black, brown and blue.
- In short, taupe shadows are a must have product in every makeup kit.
Additional Tip-
If you don't have natural cheek bones, you can fake that by using a taupe shade under your natural cheek bones. Smile and dust it with a taupe shade. It will create a fake high cheek bones. I haven't tried this but I will and let you know how it turned out.
