(again)

My palette looks like this atm:

Stars n rockets
Nocturnelle
Cranberry
Expensive pink
Free to be
Lucky green
Humid
Swiss chocolate
Vanilla
Espresso
Soft brown
Antiqued
Coppering
Satin taupe
Naked lunch
Ricepaper
Woodwinked
Shale
Embark
Star violet
Mulch


Im gonna buy about 5 colors.

Thinking of those:
Typographic (had this one but my dad dropped it to the floor..)
Bio green
Amber lights (do i need this one when i have woodwinked?)
Electra
Parfair amour??? (or another lighter purple then nocturnelle)
Hepcat/some other glittery pink??
Anything else im missing?

Can buy on ebay so if you have any PRO colors to suggest i can get them :)

I dont want any blues because blue isnt really my shade :)

THANKS <3

From what you already own, it seems like you tend to gravitate towards warm browns and neutrals. If I were you, I'd think about purchasing the following:

Paradisco
Patina
Sable
Copperplate
Tete-a-Tint (this blows Soft Brown out of the water)

I personally think that Amber Lights is pretty different than Woodwinked; it pulls a lot more orange/red on NC37/40 skin - whereas Woodwinked remains true to pan. Be careful with Parfait Amour; it's a really beautiful color, but I bought a few bad pans of it that had absolutely no pigmentation and it wasn't until the third one that I got a decent one out of the batch. Typographic is a really versatile color.

If you're getting a PRO color, I'd definitely suggest Coral.

I have Electra but haven't reached for it in a long time. It's a nice silver. :) I'll definitely nod to repurchasing Typographic. I'll recommend Smut (goes well with Shale). If you want a lighter purple, how about Digit?

I'm an n20 with blue eyes, and I have BOTH woodwinked and amber lights! I love love love them both, but almost always reach for Amber more, it's so lovely! Perfect lid colour!
