Really good color, but it doesn't blend well for me. I tried it with two different eyeshadow primers (can't go w/o primer due to very oily lids) and others shadows but could never get it to...

A perfect brown without any hints of red, just neutral grayish brown. Very multipurpose. I love it as an eyeliner, eyeshadow in the outer v, eyebrow filler, and surprisingly, it works great as a...

This didn't work for me but I'm still giving it an overall good review. This is a very pigmented eyeshadow. If you have a deeper skin tone you will love this because it's so intense. I was able...

If you're looking for a decent matte eyeshadow at the drugstore, you've met your match! This is a true neutral dark brown that almost leans kind of ashy. It is pigmented and blendable. Lasted me...

I was looking for a cool dark brown eyeshadow that was cheap. This color was perfect. I got it at Walmart for around $3, and it's very similar to the brown in Chanel's Taupe Delicat duo. It lasts...

I bought this product specifically to use as a face contour powder because of the greyish-brown tone. And yes, it works very well! I use a blush brush to pick up some of the product with a heavy...

I've never actually used this as eyeshadow, but pro tip: This stuff is a perfect dark brown shade for filling in eyebrows because it's completely matte and dark. I just wish Maybelline didn't test...

This is more of a grayish charcoal brown perfect for darker brows, this along with the Ardel brow stenciles and a fluffy eyeshadow brush = perfection. People always comment on my perfect brows if...

I use this as a contour shade. It has a hint of gray and with a light hand, this shade can look flawless when used as a contour for darker skin tones. Love it!

I got this to replace the darkest colour in the Natural Smokes quad, which I use as a liner and for my brows. It's a bit lighter brown than the quad colour, but I like that better! It's great on my...

Pretty good eyeshadow. It's the darkest brown I found at the time out of all of Maybelline's eyeshadows. It's also my first eyeshadow from Maybelline. It doesnt compare to MAC's eyeshadow but it...

This product SUCKS! SUCKS!!! Maybe I got a bad one, but for a dark brown, there is almost no pigmentation, and it's chalky, uneven... just BLAH! what a waste.

This was the only matte dark brown I could find at the drugstore at the time I went looking. That alone made it worth purchasing. It looks darker in the pan than it goes on in my opinion and I...

I got this on sale, so I only payed $1 for it. It appears to be your basic brown with a matte finish. I used this particular shade in my crease It is very pigmented when you first put it on, but it...

I love this color. It seems kind of boring in the package, but I love how it's a dark brown with a plum hue to it. I am a shimmer girl, myself, but any time I have worn this alone (on the lid and...
