    NC45 African American with red and green undertones. I am on the fence with Bamboo. It literally shows up as nothing on my eyes. A smooth version of nothing. Although the MA recommended this as...

    This is only useful for me in the summer I think, when I have a bit of a tan. It could also be used in the crease but I find even that's a bit dark in the winter for my NC20/25 skin. I would...

    I tried to make this work. No go. I'm too pale with pink undertones. It's a beautiful shade of tan taupe with no shimmer. It just looked ridiculous on me. Guess I'll stick to glitter and shimmery...

    After years of searching, I've finally found my HG eyeshadow! I prefer natural looking shades during the day, and had picked up the Soft Brown, but it was a bit too dark for me (I use it when I go...

    Bamboo isn't a particulary exciting color on my NC42 complexion...it's more of a fleshtone color. But I use it as a base...for other shadows, so it works out really well. It's a golden beige with...

    Don't use this one too often but I really do like it. Bamboo is a matte tan toned brown. I like using mattes in the crease and I find myself wishing Mac would come out with more--they never jump...

    Matte but creamy warm beige with peach undertones. Makes blue and green eyes stand out. Its a great base eyeshadow for a neutral nude look. Update I finished it a while ago, right now I...

    It looks kind of orange on me, and a weird kind of orange. The matte texture is not as good as veluxe, and it doesn't blend very well on my way too dry eyelids. It works with some colors, but not...

    I was going to go for a more beige or brown but rep recommended, I like! It's a pretty, neutral slightly peach/tan color, perfect for spring/summer looks.

    Excellent base color. Smooth matte formula, perfect warm ivory-beige color. I picked this out for the base color in a quad consisting of bamboo, woodwinked, goldmine & sumptuous olive. Works really...

    I purchased this because I wanted an eyeshadow that was just a tad bit darker than Brule. Well it is, but it's just a bit too orange on my MMM/NC35 skin. Oh well. I have to mix it with Brule to...

    This is one of those MAC shades I am soooo not impressed with. It's hard to wear because it's a yellowish color (to me). I don't know what color skin could pull this off well.

    Odd this hasn't been reviewed yet. There's nothing special about this color so I wouldn't buy again. It's a matte ivory beige. Looks like like concealer in like a second from lightest shade in most...
