    This is my absolute least favorite e/s from MAC. I though it would be a neutral beige- peachy color but it just looks completely orange on my skin (NW25). I also don't like the finish. I own other...

    Bamboo is an okay HL color, but I purchased it as a lid color, but it doesn't work as a lid color for my nc43 skin tone. This color blends right into my skin tone and I cannot see it at all. My...

    I use this as a lid color for my brown smoky eye look (brule (highlight), texture (outer-v/crease), and handwritten (outer-v/crease) or alone along with brule. It's good for everyday wear. But it...

    This ES is so nostalgic to me! It was one of the very first makeup products I ever brought from MAC. In my opinion, this is one shade that will work with mostly any skintone, and eyecolor. It's...

    I really like this shadow. On my NC37-40 olive complexion, it goes on as a lovely apricot tan colour...it doesn't look orange at all. It's a nice warm colour that makes me look polished rather than...

    This color is so...eh. I don't know what possessed me to buy it, but at the time I was striving to achieve a natural, "no-makeup" look while still adding some subtle color to my face. Bamboo is a...

    I'm fair skinned (NC 15) and bought this looking for a very natural, matte shadow that I could wear across my entire lid for an easy daytime look. I like neutral, natural colors in my day-to-day...

    Bamboo! Where have you been all my life? I love this shadow. It gives me a matte MEBB look. I use it as a wash all over and I can use anything in the crease because it's neutral (Sketch, Club,...

    I like this shadow. It's a light golden beige with peachy undertones. I think this shadow is more suited for medium/tan/olive skintones as it may turn out orangey on fairer ones. On my lids it is a...

    I purchased both bamboo & arena for when I want to do a neutral, everyday look. On me, bamboo comes out pretty sheer...there's no obvious colour, but it just gives me a nice base to put my arena...

    This looks like a great neutral in the pan, and many MAs have suggested this to me. But, on me, the color looks orange.

    A basic neutral which shows up as a very warm slightly browner than my skin colour. Good basic for those with darker/tanned skin. Nice to use in the day time. Would repurchase if I ever ran out.

    Too dark for my pale skin. People kept asking me why my eyes were so red. That wasn't the neutral beige-brown look I was going for! Not a bad color for darker skin, though. The shadow itself was...

    This is a neutral shade of beige that has a 'burnt' look, zero shimmer. It glows orange (but only slightly). When I tested it at first, I thought it was a dissapointment because it had zero...
