More like silvered taupe. The base color is a very pretty medium-dark brown, but the shimmer is definitely silver, not bronze, and that was really emphasized on the lid. I was looking for a warmer brown and so was disappointed in this specific color, but the rest is a slam-dunk.


The packaging is good, I like how it's small and light. The plastic cap seems fragile to me. Consistency of the product is cool, like a pressed pigment that just barely finished drying.


Great pigmentation and I had zero creasing after 10 hours. I don't have particularly oily lids, but my eyes are hooded and when open there is a permanent fold, which is usually where things crease. Not this product.

Very pretty taupe, warmer than WnW Nutty, but still cool toned. Has some qualities of a cream, but combined with a powder. I use a primer but it lasted well without one too. Bought 4 of these es and plan to get a few more

I own too many eyeshadows, its ridiculous! But I had to try these. I picked up bronzed taupe and use it very religiously as of late. I like to use this and pat and blend all over the lid for an everyday makeup. It's sparkly, but not too over the top. They blend easily as well. I also bought this in the deep navy color, I wanna say it's midnight something....love it as well. These seem that they will last forever because there's plenty of product and you don't need too much for the color to show up.

Loreal is on the higher price end of drugstore items, so I suggest waiting for a buy one get on 50% off or go to target to get cheaper prices.

Very impressed with the texture and pigmentation. Didn't think it would be very pigmented since it's not a high-end brand, and was proven wrong. Love the color and the shine/shimmer. It's not over-the-top or glittery. Also, had no fallout issue like some eyeshadows with similar shimmer. As for the staying power, I usually use a primer on my lids, so not sure if that helped it stay on with no creasing until I took it off at night. Already excited about getting the other colors, and possibly getting back-ups, just in case.

I went crazy looking for these (hopefully they are permanent) and found them at Ulta. They just got them in stock and had all of the shadows on display. I got bronzed taupe, the only one I wanted, but I had a coupon and had to spend 10 so I got another one in Continuous Cocoa. I love taupes (most of us do right?) so its gotta be a really terrible shadow for me not to like it. The texture is amazing. It is very dense and smooth and soooo pigmented. The color is nothing extraordinarily unique, besides its shine/sheen, but the texture is what makes it so great. The color looked at little more bronze/red when I first looked at it on the display but it translates into a perfect taupey, brown, gold. It is not too bronze or too grey and would look lovely on everyone. I only used my fingers so far I can't say what brush would work best. It is very long lasting and stayed on my hand forever. I hope it's permanent because I want more and don't want to go crazy hunting them down.

I purchased 6 of the infallible eyeshadows but the Bronzed Taupe and Iced Latte is my favs. I love love anything taupey e/s, I have few cream taupey eyeshadows from varies brands such as Benefit, NARS, Jouer, MUFE, but Bronzed Taupe has to be my fav! Without any primers, it stays on my oily lids for 10 hrs, slightly start creasing after 12 hrs, amazing. Beautiful shimmery taupe, extremely pigmented, hard to get it off even w/soap. I've been wearing this almost everyday, I haven't even tried other colors. Packaging is sturdy but will see how long it lasts w/out drying since pot products tend to due so.
