For eyes, if you could squeeze in a 4th shade, I'd recommend Jest, Mulch, Satin Taupe, and Shroom. I can do several looks out of those 4 eyeshadows, and they're all gorgeous neutrals.

For blush, I'd recommend Pink Swoon or Blushbaby. I'd personally go with Pink Swoon because I love pink cheeks with neutral eyes and pink lips, but if you're not comfortable with pinks, Blushbaby is a great pinky brown blush that goes with most anything.

For lips, I'm not sure since I don't wear any mauvey lipsticks, but what about Syrup?

 

[Sanayhs]

For three eyeshadows, I'd say that All That Glitters, Sable and Blanc Type would be great. I'd also really recommend a purple for some colour.

Sable is a plum-toned brown, and that would work beautifully with your colouring. All That Glitters is lovely with it, and Blanc Type is my absolute favourite highlight shade as a pale girl because it is matte (and then you don't have to worry about glitter/shimmer OVERLOAD if your lids/blush/lips have glitter/shimmer or whatnot).

I think you would enjoy an eyebrow shader. brows are the frame of the face.

The neutrals I reach for most often are All That Glitters, Sumptuous Olive, and Soft Brown.

Have fun hauling! (and be sure to show us what you got

)

We have similar coloring - I'm NW15 with strawberry blonde hair - and I have a totally different opinion on the neutrals, but I'm not a pro MUA.

For eyeshadows in neutrals I love wedge and patina, also sumptuous olive is a great eyeshadow that I am so glad I bought. Nocturnelle is another you should consider. My absolute fav is shroom.

For blushes, I really like peachykeen and fleur power. I have a palette of six that also includes a shy beauty powder, dollymix, springsheen and mocha is a new favorite of mine.

I don't do mauve colored lipsticks - I'm more of a rust/red/coral kind of girl.

For what it's worth (maybe I don't know the best way to use them) all that glitters, expensive pink and woodwinked are not my favs. I have them and just don't go to them when I'm doing a neutral/easy/fast eye. JMHO

Hope this helps.

I forgot to mention shale e/s - this is another favorite of mine.

 

[BrowneyedBeauty]

I'm a neutrals kind of gal too! For eyeshadows I suggest Sable, Woodwinked, Shroom, and Wedge. For blush, I really love Springsheen! Have fun! Oh, I'm NW15 if that helps!

I have a Blush suggestion for you: I am an NW-20 w/ red hair and blue-green eyes...I have a lot of pink tones in my face...And, you wouldn't think it, but Sweet As Cocoa looks terrific on me!!

At first, when the MAC M/A reccomended it, I thought it'd be wayyy to dark..Turns out it's perfect for the type of coloring I (and you) have. You just have to use a lighter 'hand' with it. Using a 'skunk' brush like the MAC #187 helps a lot.

Pink cheeks are great...but they're more common..If you want something a little different that will really bring out your eyes and hair, try Sweet As Cocoa blush.


Also; Honour and/or Trace Gold are truly beautiful...one is a Frost texture, the other a Sheertone Shimmer...both are gorgeous, and will pair wonderfully with your coloring! Let us know how whatever you picked out looks on you!

All suggestions above are great, but I'd recommend Midimauve for lips. That's one of my fave lipsticks.
