Hi everyone. I'm pretty new to MAC makeup and I have a really small collection.

Here's my collection right now:

the eyeshadows are:
Freshwater / Aquadisiac
Bitter / Goldmine / Shroom / Honey Lust
Nocturnelle / Satellite Dreams / Espresso / Soft Brown
Sushi Flower / Da Bling / Coppering / Paradisco

So I want to add more to my collection but I'm worried about getting stuff that I won't be able to use with what I have now. So if you all could give me any advice about what real essentials e/s colors I'm missing right now. Any suggestions to help me build up my collection would be amazing. Thanks ahead of time!

Well, if you're buying JUST MAC, then I recommend adding Gesso and Carbon--matte black and matte white--to your collection. Also, you've got lots of pinky-purple colors, but for a starter collection, I would also recommend some additional blues and greens to add on to what you have, like Electrical Eel, Nehru, Plumage, Humid, or Tilt. You also appear to missing neutrals and highlights...popular choices are Naked Lunch, Vanilla, Shroom, Rice Paper, and Bamboo. If you're looking for some of the more popular shades, you may want to add Cranberry, Black Tied, Espresso, Chrome Yellow, Bitter, or Brule to your collection.

Also, I know you're JUST looking for eyeshadow recs, but a good powder can really finish off a look.

My fail-safe MAC eyeshadows are Shroom (it is great for a highlight, with any color) and Satin Taupe.

You have a great collection, you can't go wrong adding some shimmery neutrals which you can pair with ur mattes espresso and soft brown for everyday looks. Nylon, Romp, and All That Glitters are my faves.

I would also add Carbon for a matte black.
