Ladies, I know that we are being bombarded with new MAC collections monthly. I loved the posts of eyeshadow combos by fellow sisters. Can we please post some combos using some of the new shadows that have come out. This is a suggestion given to me in a live MAC Chat. I thought I would share.

Apply BY JUPITER Eye Shadow over your eyelids as a base with the MAC #242 Brush. - Sweep LOVESTONE Eye Shadow through the crease of your eyes with the MAC #224 Brush to create a soft contour. - Highlight below the brow bone with the BRONZE Eye Shadow using brush #213. - Line your lashlines with INDUSTRY Powerpoint Eye Pencil. Top your lashes with 2 coats of COAL BLACK Pro Lash Mascara.

I've only purchased one eyeshadow from this summer's collections -- Firespot from Moonbathe -- but I have found lots of ways to wear it. (I'm an NC43, by the way, and I always base my e/s with a barely-there coat of Bare Canvas paint.)

First of all, it looks great by itself -- applied heavily or sparingly -- with a generous coating of mascara.

The combination I've received the most compliments on is this: Goldmine on the inside 2/3 of the eyelid and Firespot on the outside 1/3 and in the crease. Blend well.

If you have time on your hands, you can punch up the look I just described by smudging a deep bright pink (like Sushi Flower or the pink in L'Oreal HIP duo Brazen) in the outside corner. You can also lighten the inside corner with a pale, greenish gold like Spring Up.

i really like revved up(inner lid) and rushmetal(outer) together with lovestone as a blush its kinda simple but i like it im actually posting an fotd soon with that exact combo...probably 2moro

With Moonbathe, one look I did envolved using a base shadow (I use Stila's Jezebel) all over the eye, then using Mangomix Shadestick as on the lid. I layered Cranberry on top of the Mangmix from the inner lid to the center, and blended in with Firespot from center lid to outer. I then deepend the crease with a dark brown (I used Black Plum from Bobbi Brown, but you could use Espresso) and worked Saturnal slightly under the brown, through the crease as well. I got a lot of compliments on that.

With C-Shock used Jezebel all over again, and put Corn Shadestick all over my lid. I then applied Eyepopping all over the layer of Corn, and blended Bitter over it (to de-emphasize some of the yellow). I did a small but concentrated bit of Wondergrass through the crease to the lower lid, and blended Big-T in the outer V. For my lips I lined them with Beet and wore Blast O Blue l/s.

I haven't gotten any of the Flashtronic shadows, but I did a basic bronzey smokey eye with Cocomotion on the lid and it was cute.

**Updated! **

Here's a simple Flashtronic look I tried: I'm C7

Base: Tan Ray Paint
Lid: Lovestone Eyeshadow lightly over entire lid
Outer >: Ether Eyeshadow- Take small brush and swipe over the dark vein. I have lots of dark veining in mine. Blend this in the outer > to create contrast and depth.
Brow: Brule blended very well under brow or your highlighter of choice.
Line eyes with Blooz or any eyeliner of choice.

Blush: Whatever you like. I didn't use any with this look.
Lips: Lips lined lightly with Plum lipliner with Novel Twist's Gadabout Lipglass.

From the Moonbathe line I looooove blending Firespot and Cranberry together. I do firespot on the linner lid, Cranberry on outer and usually use Vex as my highlighter. I love it!

Still playing around with C-Shock and not too interested in Flashtronic. I think it has to grow on me.

Oh man, how did I miss this thread? I was dead in love with firespot when I first heard about it and boy oh boy did I find lots of fun things to do with it! I love oranges, they're my favorite kind of non brown neutral look! I love firespot over mangomix s/s and off the radar paired with it (try some embark with it and you're set).
I also really enjoy Big T with Eyepopping together (Eyepopping in the inner corner and Big T going to the edge).
I also just got Ether yesterday (one that has more of the dark blue than normal) and that goes well with a lot of the things on the permanent collection like any sort of periwinkle from the purple versions of it to the blue/silver versions of it.
