Chanel Soft Touch Eyeshadow Taupe Grise 87 Review, Photos, Swatches, Tutorial
Chanel Ombre a Paupieres Mono Douceur/Ombre Esssentielle / Soft Touch Eyeshadow Single Taupe Grise is a part of Chanel’s Fall 2010 collection. It is a true taupe colour. You would see the hues of brown, gray and mauve in it.
Price : Rs 1650
It’s an easy to wear colour for me because I love wearing neutrals.
Chanel Soft Touch Eyeshadow
I loooovee the shade. I have worn it so many times already. The texture of Chanel eye shadows is super smooth. They blend easily, barely have a fall out and look fresh all day long. Chanel Taupe Grisé is one of the classic colour. You can just wear it as a single wash of colour on your lids or can mix and match it with different shades. The pigment of , Chanel Taupe Grisé eyeshadow is pretty strong and just a swipe of colour gives you beautiful pigment to work with.

Chanel Taupe Grisé has a satiny finish – it’s neither matte nor shimmery. Another interesting thing that I like about this shade is that it looks different in different lights. Sometimes it looks more brown, sometimes it shows its mauve undertones and sometimes the grey undertone becomes prominent. Love it for it is and it one of the “must haves” if you love neutrals.

Played with Chanel Taupe Grise eyeshadow a little. I generally like to apply it all over the lid but in the following look I have also used the pearly white eyeshadow.

This is how I created the eye look:
- Step 1:Apply primer on your lids
- Step 2 Apply brown eyeliner on the upper lash line and smudge it with Chanel Taupe Grise eyeshadow.
- Step 3 : Apply Chanel Taupe Grise on the outer two third of the lid.
- Step 4: Apply pearly white eyeshadow on the inner third of the lid and blend it lightly with the Chanel Taupe Grise so that no edges are visible.
- Step 4: Apply Chanel Taupe Grise on the outer two third of the lower lash liner and pearly white eyeshadow on the inner third.
- Step 6: Curl lashes and apply mascara.
- Step 7 (optional) before curling lashes you may also define your upper lash line with a gel liner.

Except for the foundation and the blush (well I got peachy right) I guessed everything else..heheheee…
you are so wiseee…errr that avatar is so disturbing.. :smug:
Why is it so difficult to believe what you are saying…I was waiting for your evil comments…oh god!! she confuses me like hell.
Ahaaaa…she has used sindoor also…
And that SA..she did not let me buy this
But you didn’t like it on you na..?
I liked everything..khakhi…this one…but I think she might have been right….she said that was more like my colour…this weekend I will go there..tell her to put it and see it in daylight…she is going to think I am mad. You see last time, I put khakhi on one eye and taupe on the other..so errr..i did look a bit mad
n u left the counter like that???
No the poor SA..she was dying watching me try on all these shadows…more than the shadows..she had the makeup remover in her hand and waiting

Now now HD, at least those kurtas came out…You know, I had my first crush on her when she was in Kurta only..she used to wear a lot of sleeveless kurtas and some skirts in those days…
And I really wonder why girls change their dressing preferences after marriage. We men expect that the clothes would become skimpier and they become longer and hide more.
Ohhh..its the other way for me…my dear darling hubby came for the girl-seeing thing (arranged marriage you see) after seeing an absolutely horrid sari-clad photo of mine..and now after marriage he claims he has been cheated :devil: :devil: :devil: What I am trying to say is I look really pretty now..hehehhehehehee :devil: :devil: :devil:
Umm…. Where does James Bond find all his girls? I wanna live in that area….

Its going to be vintage in a while..thats what my hubby told me! Do you read Calvin – I married Calvin’s father…grrrrrrrrrrr
Oh Calvin’s father is much better….I married Mr. Wilson from Dennis the Menace :sidefrown: :struggle: :idk:

Oh its a bad thing to say is it…I didnt know!!! I used to think its a funny thing
Thankfully I never used it sooo
ya allahhhhhhh!! kushumbi thalla??!! my god jomol!!!!

.-= fathima´s last blog ..Maybelline Haul! =-.
I don’t like this avatar. It disturbs me. :smug:
OMG Rati..I forgot completely..you and I have common tastes in makeup…Chanel eyeshadows…so good naaaaaaaa
yesh yesh how can I forget this and it’s as easily available in delhi as in Bangalore…so much common na. :evilgrin: :evilgrin:
You are looking absolutely stunning, Rati. This eyeshadow really suits you.
thank you, Sabrina.
)
you look so pretty!!!btw do you think i can find a dupe of this shade at Inglot??can’t afford Chanel as yet!!
Inglot is a good brand….I dont have Chanels n MACs n ELs but I hv a Inglot e/s and its really nice…and a palette of 3 for 1200 is a good deal….planning to get one in future…god knws whn it will open in mumbai
Sree there is no dupe of this eyeshadow. I searched and searched the internet like mad people. but there was a limited edition mac eyeshadow that was closer…
Wooooooooooow!! you look so good!!! my mom is going to hate you for making me bug her to get me chanel stuff!!!
.-= fathima´s last blog ..Maybelline Haul! =-.
he he e..thank you, Pathu. :-* :-*
You really shouldnt put that kind of a comment Rati..earlier when I used to be the decent kind who never comments on blogs…I always used to wonder why you say that. Now I am wiser, but I still wish you won’t say that
( 
(
saw rima’s and cynthia’s e/s palette post..finally Inglot is in my town!!!yipeee :clap: :clap: otherwise i would have had to ask my “reluctant” guy to get me sme stuff from Inglot in Delhi!! :giggle: :giggle:
planning to go for a major haul from there!!loved the lip paint review by Rati as well!!i guess they would do as good MAC dupes too right??
.-= sree´s last blog ..crushed flowers =-.
yeah they would sree. and congos for the palettes. they are really worth it.
you are looking sssssssooooooo pretty!!!!! :-* :-* :-* i really dont know if i ‘m liking it now.. i’m having low self esteem.

Heyyy Ikkkkkeeee….

hey Rads!!!
i’m working so hard you know… 
( came to check after dinner. 
oh so cute ya sweedums :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute:
Btw this pendant you wear is your mangalsutra??? forgive my ignorance and intrusion
:shy: :shy: :shy: :idk: :idk: :idk: :idk:
he he no it is not but i have a very cute mangalsutra also . i wear it sometimes.
mangalsutra is black beads and gold thing. I have pearl and stones also in it. 
)
oh btw this is a silver chain and the pendant is a big egg with chicken hatching from it. :giggle: :giggle:
OHHH…me going to stare some mroe at it
:cyclops: :cyclops: :cyclops:
I don’t think thats what a mangalsutra would be Deb…it would have black beads in it and is usually silver…thats the North Indian one…South Indians have gold usually.
Ooops sorry “it would NOT be silver” mangalsutras south/north india are usually gold..
oh Ik, us marwari also looobbbbbbb gold
@rads, oh i reckon that, but i thought Rati is Sikh thats why i thought it might be dif =/
If i am not mistaken in the Delhi meet pics i thought Poormina was wearing the same lookalike pendant, maybe just some cool fashion for delhites
:silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :cute: :cute: :cute: :cute: :sidefrown: :sidefrown: :sidefrown: :sidefrown: :wilt: :wilt: :wilt: :wilt: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I am not Sikh. I am a Punjabi married to a Rajput. SO now I am rajput.
Oh…no Deb. Mine was definitely not a fashion statement. That was my mangalsutra
HUH?? Wowww…I am going to examine it properly when we meet…its the cutest one I have ever seen..I hate hate hate the one I have cos its that usual gold chain thing..and me no like it…me no like gold at alllll..

needless to say .. as already so much has been said about ur luk.. Rati.. simply AWESUM… the eyeshadow is superb n ur whole luk is just gorgeous.. :-* :-*
everytime i see ur luk.. i’ll go bak n chk all the reviews done by u on ur Foundations… n then get confUUsedddd.. so plz suggest just 1 best foundation na.. MF or MAC.. whtever but just 1 as there’s no use buying all of them togteher…
i tooo hav dry skin… do reply…
Thank you Nids.
If you want a full coverage foundation, go for age renew. And by god! it never looks cakey.
And if you want a medium coverage foundation, i love mac mineralize spf 15.
)
MAC one you can wear easily during the day. It gives that dewy kind of a finish and is very natural looking.
thankuu thanku for the quick reply… wud go for MF then
… coz i dont apply foundations every day..need 1 for occasions only … n MAC only has 1 store here in hyd n tht too is too far off frm my place.. wud luv to pick tht up tooo 
… definitely bt nt nw.. i think..
even i am nt able to find COLORBAR here any where.. want their i-glide pencils n even thinking of trying their conceler too.. for the 1st time.. bt stilll searching..
Nids colorbar has disc their concealer but their i glide pencils are fantastic.
I hope you like the MF foundation.
)
but its listed on their website.. i just chked it yesterday.. they discontd.. ohh no..
( 
(
yup it’s disc.
(
Heyy Nids..Gaea was wearing the MF Age Renew foundation the day we met..and its fabulous..actually naa..the photos don’t do justice at all to her. Her makeup was superb but the stupid pics didnt show anything.
ohh okkk.. the pics were gud radhika.. i cud see her glowing in them tooo…
)
so she too using tht foundation.. i am gonna pick it up for sure .. 2 beautiful ladies doing justice to it.. so wht further proof reqd..
Yup..me one curious cat na..I kept asking her what is this..what is that..what have you used blah blah blah. She must have been like…how did I ever agree to meet this mad cap!! I feel though you should go to the counter and tell them to put it on..then walk around for the whole day..then you will get good idea about how good it is..if possible that is
:yes: :yes: :yes: :-* :-*
Wowwwww..you looking so so beautiful Rati!!… And your eyes are ahem! smoking hot!! :kissed: :kissed: …. I am so gonna try this on me… (once I am over with my eyeshadow application training!!
