    Soba is too light for my preference. I feel that I am barely wearing anything on my lid. It might work well for others but I like darker shadows.

    It's a golden brown. I love this eyeshadow on my crease. I could even use it on my lid for a clean wash. I've been doing color combinations all summer with this color. It's quite natural (I'm an...

    Beautiful medium golden brown which works well with most skin tones and eye colors. A must have for anyone who likes neutrals.

    I use this shadow as a brow powder, the color is perfect for my hair color and skintone. I don't use this very often as an eyeshadow as I find it a little too boring for my taste. Regardless, it is...

    This is one of the most under-rated MAC eyeshadows. It's the perfect crease shade for me. Subtle warm light brown with a natural sheen to it. I love wearing this with Naked Lunch as a wash and...

    I love this colour and use it all the time. It's neutral, and works great for day or night time depending on how you blend it. It matches perfectly with many other eyeshadows as well. Blends...

    Heartbreak! This color is sooo beautiful, but not on me. It turns orange, which is a death color for me. My skin is straight beige with a greeny/yellowy undertone that sometimes just looks green,...

    This looks great on anyone who has yellow undertones to their skin. Soba is a lovely light brown with gold shimmer running through it. It kind of reminds me of Nars Laguna if it were an eyeshadow....

    This is my everyday eyeshadow. It is very neutral. Nothing outstanding but just perfect. It is one of my basic eyeshadow. I make sure I alway have one soba.
