palette2.gif

Should i split this up into a highlight palette and then a neutral/brown palette? should blackberry be in this palette? it looks more purple to me now that i look at it lol..

Pink Palette:
palette3.gif

Okay so there are some highlight colors, but i felt the undertones would go well with pink? lol i don't know.. what other colors should i add to this palette? Should I Move sketch into a brown palette?

Purple Palette:

Green/Yellow Palette:
palette4.gif

I didn't have another 15 pan palette for my yellow/golds so i put in here.. well i don't wear yellow all that much anyway.. but if any of you have ones that are must haves and go well with my collection i'd love to hear them.. also what other colors are great in my green palette? I absolutely LOVE greens! so any input on this would be greatly appreciated!

and what i have on my wishlist for eyeshadows:
Arena
Beauty Marked
Coral
Electra
Firespot
Freshwater
Meadow
Scene
Shale
Sumptuous Olive

Let me know what you all think!

First of all, HOLY CRAP!! I don't really have any suggestions to fill in spots, cuz that is a shit-ton of shadows, lol!

IDK if this will help, but I have my purples divided into cool purples and warm purples. I also have my neutrals divided into dark neutrals and light neutrals. My yellows, oranges, and reds are together in a palette, as are all my greens and the couple of blues I own.

I keep quads since they are easy to travel with and I can custom make my own. HTH!

Thank you so much hun! i do appreciate that!

I don't like quads only because i rarely bring makeup out with me (i don't have time to reapply at work - or when i'm out lol!)

but i like the suggestion on the colors palettes - i guess i might need more 15 pan palettes! hehe

I think you should switch out Jest & All That Glitters with Blackberry and Coppering. Blackberry should be elsewhere.. not sure where

.

As for green eyeshadow suggestions .. SUMPTUOUS OLIVE! I can't believe you don't have it. It's one of my favourite eyeshadows! It has such great texture and looks great with almost anything (literally). You can pair it with yellows that you already have such as goldmine and gorgeous gold, smoke it out with blacks, wear it with warm browns (think woodwinked), with greens, as smudged liner, anything.
Also you can try greensmoke, juxt, and swimming if you're fine with lustres.

I noticed you have a lot of purples, I too, have a love of purples. I've divided them into light/bright purples and dark purples. Blackberry is in my dark purples palette.
And I have a highlight palette and a browns/neutral palette as well so you could go that route.

Some teals like Aquadisiac or Shimmermoss and definitaly Plumage.

Go for some yellows or orange from the pro store!

lol, u gotta a ton of stuff already. I can only comment that def get Stars n Rockets and Young Punk from ur wishlist since it seems like you love purples. I also second the recommendation for Plumage as it's a nice staple to have for blue/green/teal looks

OMG you do have a great collection lol the only thing I can think of suggesting is replacing Blackberry with Goldmine(I love it with browns)and then placing Blackberry with ur purples. Then I would keep the greens and blues in one palette and maybe create a highlight palette. I also think Club would be good with greens and blues.

Eek.. where is Star Violet?? It's so gorgeous and versatile! Perfect on the lid and in the crease. One of my favorites for sure. It would go great with so many of your colors too.
