Favourite Neutral Eyeshadows

Wow! Great recommendations but sadly not many right for me.

Let me explain:

I am a cool undertoned NW45 sister and actually appreciate / enjoy my milk-chocolate, non-golden / untanned complexion. Unfortunately so many of the suggestions / recommendations given to me for MAC (even by ladies with my skin tone) all veer towards the warm / yellow / red / golden side. Essential, 'must have' colours like MAC Saddle, All that Glitters, Embark, Ricepaper, etc are all too yellow / red / or warm on me. I look like I am suffering from hot flushes when I wear them.

Not a good look...


So I, sadly, am still seeking my favourite neutrals from MAC.

I just saw this now after reading back through the thread.

Have you checked out Copperplate, Dark Edge, Omega, or Satin Taupe? I tend to reach for those if I'm doing a cooler toned look. HTH

Hey there. I am warm-toned, but I can name some of the cool-toned colors that I have reached for, swiped, and then put back lol. Omega, Coquette, Concrete, Satin Taupe... I did a search, and Charcoal Brown, Malt, and Quarry may be up your alley as well. Hope this helps.

From MAC: Bamboo, Texture, Arena, Saddle, Patina, Era

I'm thinking about getting Bobbi Brown eyeshadows in Banana, Camel, Beige, and maybe Bone.

I don't have many at the moment but I do use.


MAC


Cork
Samoa Silk ( works really well as a matte highlight)

BOBBI BROWN

Banana
Expresso
cocoa

But I also use Rubensque or indianwood paintpots just on the lid as an eyeshadow and then something like cork blended out into the crease.
