Hi girls,

I'm after a lovely gold eyeshadow - something I can wear day or night and just use pink blush and nude lips with.

Here's a pic of me - which shades should I hunt out to try when I go to MAC at the wkend?

Either Gorgeous Gold or Goldmine. Also, Woodwinked is super pretty, but it's not really GOLD, it's more bronzy, but it would look beautiful on you too.

These are the metallic/shimmery browns/bronzes that I have already, which is why I'm now after a nice gold.

Amber Lights
Patina
Honesty
Tan pigment

You can always get the gold metal pigment. That's a true gold that I wore today. I'm not sure if it's still available at stores, but most likely can find it on ebay if not.

Gorgeous Gold has a green undertone. So, I would recommend:

Goldbit (if you can find it)
Woodwinked
Goldmine
Rose Gold Pro Pigment (if you can get your hands on it)
Heat/Element Mineralize Shadow (if you can find it)

Amberlights looks great with Goldmine

I think I'm the only person in the world who HATES Gorgeous Gold. I actually just returned it this afternoon because it was so ugly on me (when I could even get it to show up!). However, I am a huge fan of Cosmic, which is a sort of burnished gold / bronze color.

I haven't used gorgeous gold before but I just bought cosmic and it's a really pretty shade :X
