I got this in the Rapture palette. I LOVE this color. It is my everyday color - it has just the right amount of shimmer, and really brings out my brown eyes. It doesn't look so great in the pan,...

Ashes to Ashes is a bit drab for my liking. I sometimes use it as an eyelid wash before blending deeper or brighter shades over the top. Nicely pigmented and applies smoothly, but I wouldn't bother...

This is a gorgeous brown/taupe with a slight shimmer. It's very wearable as either a crease or wash color. I love it with Nepal as the tones complement eachother really well. It's a very soft...

This e/s is a lovely taupe shade, but its very much like MAC Satin Taupe, except maybe that the shimmer in Ashes to Ashes is much more subtle. I think this is a good e/s for those who want a softer...

Ashes to Ashes in an interesting color. To me it looks like grey/taupe with an almost lavendar look to it. It's really pretty and different looking. I actually like the texture and pigment of...

Sparkly taupe-grey, almost perfect, if it wasn't so spangly, but I suspect that is what appeals to many of their customers. Great packaging too, Nars stuff can weather all but the most corrosive...

Very pretty soft taupey grey. I use this for a nice soft smokey eye. I guess I imagine you could get this for a fraction of the price elsewhere, but it came in Barney's NY palette and I'm happy to...

What a lovely color. A soft brown/satin taupe like color. Goes great with icy pinks or with heart of glass. It’s not too brown, just perfect. A just a little goes a long way and it lasts for a...

A beautiful bronze colour. It's one of my staples and definitely a HG. I love wearing it in my crease. It does not crease and lasts all day. I also like the NARS rubber packaging as they are more...

I love this product and it will definitely become one of my staples. It is a great shimmery brown that I can wear either during the day or night. The shadow has a great texture and I find it has...

This is such a beautiful brown. It's a little pricey, but it lasts a long time. I know there are some complaints about NARS e/s not being highly pigmented, but I haven't had a problem with this...

This is a beautiful shimmery cool-toned taupe color, but it is not very pigmented which I feel for the price is ridiculous. I only have a few items from NARS, I feel that this line, as a whole, is...

Not too impressed with this. Not heavily pigmented (which I don't mind), but for the price, it should be. Drugstore e/s aren't heavily pigmented, but I only pay $0.99 for them. I'm sure I could...

This is a nice e/s and a pretty color, but on the light side for me (though I'm a PPP, I tend to wear darker eyeshadows), so I usually wear it on the outer two-thirds of my lid from lash to crease...

Of the 4 eyeshadows in my Rapture palette, Ashes to Ashes is my favorite. It's a lovely shimmery medium taupe-grey color that complements my blue eyes. I like to pair this one with my All About Eve...

Ashes to Ashes is a cool shimmery taupey grey. Looks wonderful in the crease with Bullit Liquid Liner to line and Cairo on the lid. Like all NARS shadows, I wish it would show up more, but that...

This is a silvery, shimmery mid-taupe, and whilst still semi-sheer, it is more densely pigmented than many other Nars shadows. An emphatically cool shade, it is not great on tanned or darker...

Ashes to Ashes is a beautiful eyeshadow. It is a shimmery taupey slivery shimmer which looks great as a wash of color as well as in the crease.
