Meadow vs. Greensmoke vs. Humid

I wrote an email to MAC about how my Teal Blue pro pan had like an air bubble in it or something of the sort and crumbled it when i put a brush on it and now it just flakes. I recently recieved an email from them saying that the Teal Blue was discontinued and that I can pick another color. I've narrowed it down to Meadow, Greensmoke, or Humid, but I just can't pick.

Which one do you like best out of the three and why?

I have Greensmoke and Humid, and of the two, I would go with Humid. I like it MUCH better. Greensmoke just looks muddy on me, and I haven't been able to get it to work (that and I don't really see much actual green in it, just the smoke, lol). Humid I really like though-very rich colour, goes on nicely, blends well. Meadow I don't know about.

I say Meadow or Humid. They are both really pretty but Humid has more shimmer.

what skintone are you?

I'm between NC/NW 20-25. I wonder if this would show up muddy on me too.

My vote is for Meadow, not muddy like greensmoke, and I think the texture is better than humid.

I vote for Humid.. its a very rich green color and is well pigmented =) great for a smokey green look!

I like Humid best.

I prefer Humid myself but meadow may be closer to the Teal blue you are replacing.
Personally I find Greensmoke a bitch to work with so I wouldn't choose that myself.

i really don't vcare for meadow, it's one e/s i wish i wouldn't have bought, i thought it would look nice on but it's too chalky. i would go with humid, i can't say anything aobut greensmoke though...

I'm NW15/20, so I'm thinking it would show up in a very similar way. Just to reiterate, if I had to pick the one eye shadow I dislike the most (and this is saying a lot because I love almost all my MAC), it would have to be Greensmoke-it's so "bleh" on me.

My vote is Humid. IMO, Sumptuous Olive is a better smokey green than Greensmoke. Meadow is DC'd. Did she say that they still have it? I would question its availability if she didn't. HTH

ETA: Allthough...MAC Pro has a Greensmoke CCB that makes an awesome base under Greensmoke shadow, if you want a darker smokey green look.
