What are your favorite mac shadows?

[onthisnight]

Hey guys!

I wanted to get more eyeshadows and didn't really know which one to get. So i wanted to know your favorite shadows from Mac.
I'm not really into the really bright colors though.
Thanks!

(I tried to look for a similar thread but couldn't find one so sorry if someone has already asked this :S)

 

[euphrosyne_rose]

Beauty Marked, Contrast, and Humid (all are darker but look great alone, as a crease definer and I use these ALOT as liner)
Blue Brown piggie, Tempting, Gorgeous Gold and Knight Divine.
Just to name a few... LOL

I have to say Magnetic Fields from the Neo-SCI Fi Collection

 

[Shaquille]

Gulf Stream from the Cool Heat collection..
it's a soft bright green.. the best I have!!

 

[KikiB]

My favourites are Goldmine, Crystal Avalanche, Solar White, Beautiful Iris, Moon's Reflection, and especially Angelcake. I'm definitely an EOE when it comes to my brands (drugstore brands need not apply) and I love pigments, I have almost as many pigments as I do shadows.

Smoke and Diamonds and Phloof, or maybe Grand Entrance. I just love the texture of the new Starflash eye shadows.

 

[red]

my absolute favorite is Satin Taupe

, from a more recent collection Magnetic Fields

 

[nursie]

ricepaper (for highlight)
espresso (for crease)
satin taupe (for everything, everyday)

and in the current 'starflash' collection i think bold and brazen is gorgeous

 

[winterwonder]

My favoriteee non-bright colors are Woodwinked, Amber Lights, Sable, Shroom, Orb, Humid, Cranberry, Gorgeous Gold, Goldmine and Shale. Oh gosh I could go on and on. LOL

From the new collection, Mink & Sable, Smoke & Diamonds and I really think Bold & Brazen and Glamour Check! are soon to top my list! =)

the mineral eyeshadow duos that are out now are, imho, a great buy especially when you're short on cash. you can usually draw three or four colours out of them. of course the solid side, and then a few more colours from the veined side.

aside from that, i really think that vanilla e/s is a must have...as well as cork e/s which looks amazing in the crease with vanilla on the lid and a darker (i always used ground brown e/s, but it's a pro product...you could use something like espresso e/s, too) shade of brown to deepen the crease.

Definitely get the shadow too! The shadow is a velvet, and I find it to be mostly matte. You have Vanilla pigment, so you know it's shimmery. Vanilla e/s is great for a highlight when you're wearing shimmery eyeshadows everywhere else. I love it!

Some of my other faves:

Phloof!
Shroom
Nylon
Naked Lunch
Satin Taupe
Sumptuous Olive
Star Violet
All That Glitters
Woodwinked
Expensive Pink
Mythology
Bronze
Tempting
Twinks
Jest
Mulch
Vex

Can you explain the difference between these two shades? Trying to decide if I need MF if I have ST already.
