It would be unfair for me to give you 15 faves since I only own 18 mac eyeshadows... but these are the ones I reach for most often:

- blanc type (use it EVERY day)
- naked lunch
- motif
- all that glitters
- soft brown

Do you live near a Pro Store? Here are some of my favorite regular and Pro products for the eye:

Humid
Vex or Seedy pearl (whichever you like more)
Vellum
Gesso
Passionate
Contrast
Carbon or Typographic
Stars n Rockets
Malt or Wedge (neutrals, you will use these a lot)
Swimming or Lucky Green
Winkle
Gorgeous Gold (I don't really like this one, but it's good to have a good golden color)
Fig. 1 or any other purple or violet you like
Expresso (also popular for use on the brows)
Elecktra or Knight Divine (depends if you want a medium silver or gunmetal)

15 Must Have MAC Eyeshadows?

Hi everyone, I'm a beginning make up artist and I plan on buying a Mac Pro 15 palette. I was wondering if you could suggest some colors that are versatile and look good on a lot of skin tones. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

You need, need, need these colors:

1. Carbon. Good as an eyeliner and essential for smokey eyes.
2. Fig 1. The best purple ever. Use in the crease with motif on lid.
3. Motif. Use with Fig 1, as a highlighter, or a blush.
4. Plumage. Great crease color.
5. Aquadisiac. Use with plumage.
6. Retrospeck. Great highlight.
7. Sushi Flower. The only pink you really need.
8. Gesso. Use as a lid color with any other color. Instantly opens the eyes.
9. Woodwinked. Very easy to blend and has nice shine.
10. Cork. Good buffer color and great as an eyebrow filler.
11. Sumptious Olive. Great natural green color.
12. Espresso. Good for smokey and has a nice texture.
13. Shroom. Everything you need in a highlight.
14. Humid. Great crease color with sumptious olive.
15. Gorgeous Gold. Goes well with virtually any color.
