hey guys i'm nc37-40 combination skin and i just wanted some input on things to get next time i go MAC shopping. i'm trying to build up my permanent line collection since most of my stuff is LE. but feel free to add in some LE items since i might not have them yet.

concealer: what shade and formula?
blush (powder and cream): i already have sunbasque, fleur power, and blossoming
lipstick: i like nudes, pinks, beige, and corals. i wanna try some brighter pinks but not like super fuschia! haha. from MAC i currently have twig-twig, ultra elegant s/s, utterly frivolous, lollipop loving
lipglass: same as above. from MAC i currently have pink lemonade, big kiss plushglass, love nectar, full on lust, there's more but i'm too lazy to look
lipliner:
eyeshadow: suggestions for neutrals please.


and anything else you would like to add. thanks!

If you like blushcremes get Sweet William. It's the pinky version of blossoming and they are both pearl. Love it!

Well, I'm also an NC40 and there's no better blush (to me) than springsheen.
Also, I use the following neutrals a LOT:

Shroom, espresso, satin taupe, amber lights (this isn't quite neutral, but...I like it so much I can't help but recommend it!), romp, and soba.

Beaux lustreglass is the love of my life. It's a gorgeous glossy bronze color that's got just enough color to be really pretty on. I also really like posh it up plushglass for a pink color!

Also if you don't have melon and vanilla pigments, GET THEM! They have so many uses it's ridiculous. I use them in some way -every single day-.
