    Soba is a gem! I'm on my 5th of Soba. I use it as a contour, not for eyes but for my face. Since I'm tan it's perfect for contouring and giving depth. There is no wierdness to Soba...it's not...

    I stumbled upon this gem when I asked the sales peron at the counter how I could fill in my medium brown brows, now that I have gone blonde. She pulled out cork (duh! Saw that coming) and this...

    Soba had replaced mac patina as my favorite shadow of all time. I'm not exaggerating when I say it makes my browm eyes look like they're glowing with caramel streaks. Everytime I wear this I can't...

    I bought this eye shadow in the refill format for my MAC palette. I am not sure what I was thinking when I bought it as it is dull to look at in the pan. However, this is a super versatile color...

    I love Soba and personally think it is quite versatile for day + night looks, but admit it is not for everyone. You should definitely try at the counter prior to buying. Soba is for those looking...

    I like Soba. However I find myself reaching for Wedge instead of Soba, I feel they are very similar in colouring and in my opinion Wedge blends a lot easier than Soba. It's the perfect transition...

    I Frickin love this color. It's a shimmery, warm light beige/gold color that looks so blah in the pan but we you apply it, it's absolutely gorgeous. I love the satin finish because it applies so...

    My favorite MAC e/s! I'm NC 20, Asian, and love this to slightly deepen the outer part of my eye. Combining this with a matte nude tone and a brown eyeliner, I get the most sultry yet natural...

    I thought this color would be a no-brainer, all over lid color...Nothing special but hopefully a staple...Surprisingly, this color makes me look ill and really makes my dark circles stand out....

    Soba was introduced to me in Macys - NYC as a brow color and I've loved it for this ever since. Maybe I should try it on the lids next time - from what I am reading at MUA it seems to make a...

    This is the reason why you should never buy make-up based on good reviews only; this color does absolutely not work with my complexion or colors! I bought this color based truly on background of...

    I've worn Soba off and on since it was introduced. I recently was shopping my stash, and realized I hadn't worn it in some time. I remembered that I liked it (I had actually hit pan on it) but...

    If you are a natural redhead, get this eyeshadow now! I've been looking for a mid to light toned brown for the lid with a little "umph". I tried Era because I loved the idea of a cooler brown and...

    Gorgeous and versatile colour as I can wear this either on the lid or in the crease and it works well with many other shadows. The golden undertone in this light-medium brown shadow really works...
