Since it's a warmer pink, it goes well with my skintone & looks amazing paired with darker golds & browns. But this is an exception! Expensive Pink is a lovely pink-bronze (it's a bit darker & bronzier in real life). Out of all eyeshadow colors, pinks are my least favorite (I don't own very many pinks). This is a very pretty yellow-gold that really brightens up the eye area, whether used on the lid or inner tear duct. Veluxe Pearls are my favorite MAC e/s finish/texture (besides Starflash, which are LE). It's the shadow I choose when I can't decide what color to wear that day, which obviously means it goes with pretty much everything-a definite must have! Can be worn to work, school, on a night out, wherever. My everyday staple! I think of "taupe" as a brown/grey combo, & Satin Taupe is just that! It's a versatile shade with a not-overly-frosty finish. As you can see, I'm probably going to hit pan in the center sometime soon :) I've used this for a smokey-blue eye (w/Black Tied in the crease) & as a lid color by itself (which really draws attention to my dark brown eyes). Looks great on both warm & cool skintones. My favorite blue ever! It's a deep ocean blue that can work as both a lid & crease color, depending on the look you're going for. It's great as an all over lid color, especially with a dark brown (like Tempting or Bronze) in the crease. For something different, try it with dark purples or greens in the crease (like Nocturnelle or Humid). It's a true gold color (on the warmer side). This was one of my first MAC eyeshadows (after Beauty Marked, of course :) & I'm currently on my 3rd pan of this (crazy, huh!? i think i used it every day of my senior yr in high school!). In no particular order, here are my top faves (all are my own photos & swatches):
If you're more into mattes, I'll soon post a "Favorite MAC Matte shadows" entry :)** **All of these eyeshadows (with the exception of Brule) have frost/shimmer/pearl finishes. But now that I'm familiar with all the different shades, textures, & finishes, I've come up with my TOP picks-my absolute favorite MUST HAVES for any MAC eyeshadow lover (could also be helpful for those who are just getting into MAC eyeshadows & want a nice variety of colors to start their collection). I've been using & purchasing MAC eyeshadows for years now, & it's been quite the "trial & error" process! Some I LOVE, some not so much. Neutral, Bright, Warm, Cool, Matte, Glittery, Frosty, Subtle, Dramatic-they had it all! But even with all those options, I still had a hard time choosing which ones to get.mostly because I wanted them ALL! :) One of my favorite things about MAC is their wide variety of eyeshadow colors.
