Maybe skip the hyper real in favor of Studio Fix Fluid? I've only sampled the new gold pearl ones, but the old pink pearl ones were... interesting... on skin of color. And dear god don't let them convince you to buy hyper real powders- they were not made for us.

I would add a mid-tone brown to your neutrals list- something like Down Brown or Folie (looks kinda purple sometimes though).

If you are headed to the pro store, please look at all the pigments, especially in thinking about some vibrant colors. Vanilla is an amazing neutral. Soooo many options with pigments.

And don't forget the power of a good lip liner. 80% is my absolute fave right now. But Chestnut is essential, and a dark red (Currant, Nightmoth, etc.) is worth looking at.

VGV is one of the best neutral lipsticks I've come across because it really works on anyone.

UDPP is an amazing base.

And there are some great color lists, eyeshadows in particular, on the "Favorite Colors for Dark Skin Tones" sticky thread.
