Favorite Gray Eyeshadow?

[cno64]

I(NW15; brunette; green eyes) am on a gray eyeshadow kick lately.
Which ones(not necessarily MAC) do you all like best?
I'm looking especially for true grays that won't look blue on me.
Since I'm not a fan of the smokey eye look on me, I'm especially interested in medium tones.
I currently own:
MAC French Gray, Silver Ring, Nighttrain, Stone Grey(pro)
Stila Cloud(more of a greige than a true gray, though I love it)
Urban Decay Vapor(actually silver)

Is Stray Grey really grey. Everyone was saying it was mauve, so I passed. I don't have a Nordstroms and was ordering from the site, so I couldn't see it in person.

Also I saw those Bobbi Brown trios. OMG, they are so pretty. I own soooo may green e/s but I might just have to get that. All of them were beautiful.

Can someone post a swatch or photo?

Yes, it's a nice non-frost basic grey, not too dark. The online swatches are way off. I don't know how anyone would say it's mauve because to me that conveys pink, and there's none in this at least on me, but it must change for other people. I'm like a basic beige/ivory skin tone, no redness or anything.

I love Greystone and Print, and I think Scene. I thought they got rid of Greystone so I got backups. But I thought they had some blue in them so I didn't mention those.

There's also a good basic grey in a quad by Physician's Formula if you can find the basic quads they used to make, which Walgreen's usually still carries at least a couple of them, in the middle of all the baked stuff. Not very fancy, but I've always liked them.

Thanks siwing, I am very pale also. I wish I had ordered Stray Grey and still might the site shows it available on the Nordstrom site. But their solor block shows it as mauve also.

I just got a Greystone BNIB off a trusted ebay person and I love it. Do any of you have ANTI ESTABLISHMENT and how does it compare, any dups?
Thanks

NYX Charcoal, it's a blackened, shimmery gunmetal gray.

 

[frocher]

French Gray, it is gorgeous.

 

[Dark_Phoenix]

Silver Ring and Knight Divine are my favorites.

I love grey eyeshadow. My fave's are:
Givenchy Stylish Grey - Simple, matte, classic dark grey slate colour
MAC Electra - Glam dark silvery with a bright sheen
MAC Knight Divine - Soft grey-black with shimmer

I just got a few MAC ones - Electra, Silver Ring and Cumulus.

Cumulus - definitely has a blue tone to it which I didn't want but since it's LE felt compelled to get

I actually wore it yesterday with Flastrack int eh crease and as a liner and Sweet Lust as a highlight and it looked great.

Electra - nice silvery grey

Silver Ring - little darker than Electra but still silver for sure.

Up next for me I think are Print and Knight Divine - when I can afford them. After reading about French Grey though I'll have to check it out too.

I like Suspicion (smokey gray), French Grey (wasnt sure if I would like, but luvs), Knight Divine.
