MAC Palettes!

On my make up course shopping day I bought two MAC palettes, the 15 piece eyeshadow and the 6 piece blusher. I could only afford to buy a few colours on the day as I had already spent far too much on other products so I went for 4 eye colours and 1 powder blush. Now that I have started these palettes I cannot wait to put aside a little bit of money a month and add to the palettes gradually! 




 Blusher palette containing Fleur power blush


Eyeshadow palette containing Brulee, Omega, Sketch and Carbon shadows

Here is where I need your help! I would love to know what your suggestions are for must have shadow and blusher colours from MAC that I should make sure I have inside these palettes. I will be using these palettes in my professional kit so am ideally looking for colours that I could use often and on various skin tones.

Please leave your suggestions in the comments below and I will keep you updated as I add to the palettes!

    Pink swoon is lush on fair skins. Looks really bright, but it isn't. Blushbaby is gorgeous on nc25 skin tones, and slighty warmer. It gives a nice sculpted, natural look. Great when you have really strong eyes. Gingerly... oh gosh, i go through this like no ones business. Great for nc35 upwards to about am nc40? Fever! This is Fit! Dark red,matte, great on darkest skins. Look beaut! Erm, Sunbasque is popular, frosted. Pretty and Tenderling is the most popular bridal colour for fairer skins. Just gives a hint of colour. Rx

    Hayley! You have to get the blushers- Frankly Scarlet, Dolly Mix, Pich o Peach, to name a few. I think it's always best to get really bright blushers so then you only need to use a tiny bit, as oppose to getting the lighter shades where you will use them up quicker as you have to build the colour. Also the brighter colours are more universal. xxx

    Melba is a great daytime blush, and SpringSheen is my absolute favourite! I love Cranberry eyeshadow, it's such a gorgeous colour x

    I use Vanilla and Rice Paper every day. I also use embark on my (naturally V dark) brows. Black Tied and Contrast are great for smokey eyes. I could go on and on about eyeshadows aaaaall day!
