my "multitasking" products:

One of my most recent purchases consisted of 2 eye products:

-L'Oreal Infallible Shadow in Bronzed Taupe

and

-Maybelline shadow duo in Browntones

-----------------------

I have a couple of the L'Oreal Infallible shadows and I love them.

I had been eyeing Bronzed Taupe for some time.  Emily from Beauty Broadcast featured it in one of her latest videos.  She did a complete eye look with this one color.

So I picked it up.  It's a great shadow to have in your collection for those days you need a quick look or if you just don't feel like using a lot of products.  This color is a beautiful bronzey taupe (hence the name).  It has a metallic finish, almost wet looking, and has great dimension on eye.

My other purchase was the Maybelline Expert Eye duo in Browntones.

I had been searching for a shadow that I could use to fill in my brows.  I have been using Naked from Urban Decay's Naked Palette for a long time.  But it's starting to wear down.  So I wanted to find something to take it's place.  I really want to try Milani's brow kit.  But my local Target never has it in stock.  So I got tired of searching for it and decided to look elsewhere.  At my last trip to Walgreens, I found Browntones.  It looked perfect, and I was right.  It is.

Now for the multitasking part:

I used Iced Latte to highlight the inner corner and under the brow.  Then, I used the lightest color from the Browntones duo as a transition color in the crease.  Then I used a flat shader brush to apply Bronzed Taupe all over the lid.  I then used a medium sized crease brush to apply it in the crease.  I also used the color on a small liner brush on my lower lashline.  The way the light hits this color, it creates its own highlights and shadows.  It's a great dimensional color.

I then used the lightest color in Browntones, again, for my brows.  Perfectly easy.
