My favourite eyeshadow is MAC Shale. It was the basis of my wedding eye make-up and just seems to work no matter shades I blend with it. It's true that the purple really does make brown eyes POP!
ReplyDeleteFab giveaway, Abyssinian Catbird looks divine xx
My favorite eyeshadow is a peachy-champaign color from a Milani quad, I really like it because it's neutral, so I can easily pair it with a colorful eyeliner! ;)
ReplyDeleteI RT your message under the name StavroulaPlag :)
Awesome giveaway, I've never tried anything from Models Own! :)

Ohh score! I've had my eye on Becca's Brown ever since I first heard about the collection. Love Models Own polishes but have never tried the glosses. Lovely giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite shadow is Paul & Joe Boulevard. I use it more or less every day and it's the perfect crease colour if I don't want too strong a look as I'm pretty pale. It's buttery soft despite being a powder shadow and the gorgeous packaging helps too. Always brightens my day!
MY fav eyeshadow for the time being!!mmm ok Korres light pink!But this changes every week or month or day!?/!?/
ReplyDeleteI'll tweet hun!
irenego@hotmail.gr
Thanks for doing this - the prizes look fab!
ReplyDeleteI'm torn between two eye shadow faves. The first is MAC Shale, snap with WBB, and the second is Chanel Taupe Gris, which is just fab - it's really easy to build up the intensity of the colour, so you can use it on the lid and as a crease colour, but it looks different. I think it's just edging Shale...
My email is thebristolbeautyblog@gmail.com
Thanks! xx
Thanks so much for doing such a great giveaway. Am desperate to try some Rouge Bunny Rouge products! My favourite eyeshadow at the moment is Chanel's Taupe Gris, can be worn everyday but is more exciting than your average neutral.
ReplyDeleteAmazing giveaway lovely. So generous of you.
ReplyDeleteTo choose a favourite eyeshadow though, now this is a toughy! Most probably Nars Mekong. I love everything about thsi eyeshadow. I could literally stare at it for hours ha. Everything about it is me. Its my perfect crease colour for a heavy smokey eye.
My fav' eyeshadow is M.A.C's Fig.1. Matte and so smooth.
ReplyDeleteGreat Prizes the eyeshadow looks lush :)
ReplyDeleteMy fav eyeshadow is Boots No7 Truffle this is truly a lovely colour which can be worn all over the lid. This is fab when your trying to get ready in hurry with a 4month old and 3yr old!
I have tweeted about your fab giveaway-

great giveaway! My favorite eye shadow at the moment is Naked Lunch. Its great for an all over lid colour and a highlighter :) x
ReplyDeleteHi Jane!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful giveaway! Thanks for thinking of your readers!
My favorite eye shadow ever is probably Stila Kitten (even though I don't wear it too often, I have used countless pans of it over the years). My most current favorite is Le Metier de Beaute's e/s in Corinthian. It's just a perfect taupe!
You have been a regular on my blog side bar since I *found* you months ago.
Jeanie
Ohh lovely give away..
ReplyDeletePlease can I enter..
My fave eyeshadow, uhh tough as it changes weekly..
Currently my fave is Mac melon pigment.. It's such a stunning burnt goldy orange which is very flattering for blue eyes, but possibly most eyes.. Love this..
Thank you xx
What a generous giveaway Jane!
ReplyDeleteAnd so to try my luck, I would have to say that my favourite eyeshadow is the Paul&Joe eye gloss in no5. On my eyes this is such a unique shade...it has gray and purple but isn't a taupe, it has a hint of gold and blue iridescence, whilst a brown eyeliner brings out tones of almost cranberry. Although it would probably be more accurate to say that it just defies description :-)
Good luck to all!
Nina x
Great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy fave eyeshadow is Mac Sumptuous Olive which is the only eyeshadow I've finished and rebought.
My favourite eyeshadow is a Mac one called Stars n Rockets. It is very very pretty and bright Pink !
ReplyDeleteAmazing giveaway. My favourite eyeshadow is probably Femme Fi by MAC. It suits my skintone, goes with everything, and I have repurchased it several times. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab giveaway. I find it hard to pick a favourite but I have to say Chanel taupe gris is actually fab. I can apply it easily in the morning, when I'm bleary eyed and cursing the fact time is flying fast... and STILL get to look good (well I hope:P). But you know these shades are great for a fuss free look and I like to keep it simple in the morning.
ReplyDeleteOoh loved that eye shadow on your recent review. Have only just got back into wearing eye shadow and at the moment am loving MUA in shade 12! Gives you some indication of just how "top end" my eye shadow purchases are, this one cost a quid! Models Own nail polish is a current obsession of mine but haven't tried the lip glosses, at the mo am loving Rimmel Vinyl gloss - over my treat purchase of a Chanel gloss, clearly have very cheap tastes!! Thank you for entering me.
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow is MAC pigment in Mauvement, its such a lovely sparkly shade and one I can wear again and again without getting bored.
My favourite eyeshadow is a Chanel one from the Garden Party quad. It's a pale green but under electric light it's absolutely out of this world, full of sparkling iridescence. So beautiful. I bought the whole quad, just for that green although the other colours are pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely giveaway!.
Lovely generous giveaway - ha favourite eyeshadow...hmmmm for me that is a real toughie considering I don't own any (that I use!). Can I cheat a bit and say MAC Cream Colour Base in Pearl, because I do use it on my eyes and it gives a bit of a sheen that shows.
ReplyDeleteNice giveaway.. I hope its international. My favorite eyeshadow is All that glitters by MAC, you know for those all over the lid days.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI live in the U.S. and only discovered your blog about a month ago, and you have saved me untold amounts of cash! We are similar in coloring, and have similar shade issues with blush (ie, need for cool tones), so your reviews and swatches have literally simplified my life. I now have a set of basic blush and lip colors that all work for me, so I am profoundly grateful for your time and obsessions!
My favorite shadow for some time has been MAC Henna, which looks like a dark gold but has a strong green undercurrent that really pops when you apply it to the mobile lid in a sheer swipe. Alternatively, used in the crease with a heavier hand, it looks fantastic with almost any other color. I also love Sephora Alpine Summit for the browbone, a subtle highlight and magnificent blender shade for merging two colors.
Thanks again for all your painstaking work -- your blog should be subtitled "I make mistakes so you don't have to"!
Jeannette
My favourite eyeshadow is juxt from mac, makes blue eyes look bluer and the staying power is amazing!
ReplyDeleteMy go to shade is MAC Amber Lights....in the gold family. Simply pops my eyes x
ReplyDeleteFab giveaway, love what you did with the title lol.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow EVER is MAC Pro Bio Green. It's really neon and bright, but I wear it as a total lid colour, haha!

Thank you so much for the entries so far. I’m loving reading about your eyeshadow favourites. It has reminded me that I still want MAC Shale and I’ll admit to kicking myself about my lack of Taupe Gris!
ReplyDelete@alecia: Yes, as I mention in the rules, the giveaway is open to all followers. I’m happy to post anywhere.
@Jan: Of course, I’ll happily take that answer J
@Jeanette: I can’t really express what your comment means to me. That my ramblings and pictures have helped you makes it all worthwhile. I’m so pleased you have found it useful. I love your subtitle suggestion too! I promise to keep up the research ;)
@Karleigh: You can take credit for the title missy! :D
Jane x
Gosh, you expect me to be able to choose just one?! Oh heck. I'm going with two and saying they draw :P Yaby 'So Vein', which is an incredible bright blue-green and UD 'Toasted', a pinky beige perfect for 'I can't be bothered' make-up days haha :)
ReplyDeleteI did tweet about it, though I have no idea how to link to a single tweet so I tagged you in it instead!
bite.bleed.bite[at]hotmail[dot]co.uk
Wonderful giveaway hunny, thank you so much for the generosity!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow has to be grand entrance by mac. Its a gorgeous, over glittery peach eyeshadow which is just amazing on its own or paired with other eyeshdaows! Its a starflash finish so super intense but unfortunately limited edition :(
I have been a follower for a very long time :D

Thanks for the tweet! I'm not sure you can link to a single tweet, it's just a link to an account that I was after but I follow you anyway so I spotted it ;)
ReplyDeleteJane x
I've been dying to try some Rouge Bunny Rouge eyeshadows! My current favourite is MAC Patina, but I have a new favourite practically every week.
ReplyDeleteI've added link and photo to my sidebar at http://missyellieuk.blogspot.com

Hmmm, such a tough question and I reckon my favourite changes every other week but at the minute it's definitely number 44 by Barry M which is a really simple metallic gold shade. It's just perfect because it so warm and rich looking. One of those shadows you can go back to again and again :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow is actually an MUA one, in shade 4. Its a lilac, with silvery undertones. Such a bargain for a pound! I use it alot during the day, for a bright eye that isn't too much!
ReplyDeleteAnna x
I've put a photo and link in my sidebar too!

I couldn't pick a favourite eyeshadow but I love champagne colours, so easy for days when you don't want a full face of make-up but you want to look put together :) xx
ReplyDeleterottenotter@hotmail.co.uk
Currently, my favorite eyeshadow has to be MAC Vex, but it changes quite often! xxx
ReplyDeleteHi again
ReplyDeleteI've entered above with my fave eyeshadow but have now added you to my side bar (I think?!)
http://chickyspouts.blogspot.com/
Thanks for all the entries, I'm loving reading all of the eyeshadow suggestions. Some of which are already firm favourites (Vex and Patina) and some like the MUA eyeshadows which are a reminder that I want to investigate those.
ReplyDelete@Chicky Spouts. I realised that my explanation about the sidebar might not be all that clear. I'm after a picture or message in the sidebar about the giveaway with a link. I hope that makes sense? :)
Thanks you for all the entries! Best of luck x
Can I only pick one?? Oooh That's really hard! My favourite one has to be 'Wedge' from MAC! It was bought for me AGES ago as a novelty gift (for obvious reasons) and even though I didn't like it at first I now love it! :)
ReplyDeleteHave popped a link in my sidebar for y'all as well! http://vaguelyinvogue.blogspot.com just in case you can't find me ;)

I love two faced's 'natural eye' pallet at the moment! Especially that colour 'fashion' sort of warm pale pinky.
ReplyDeleteI'm still getting to grips with eyeshadow as I have very small eyes so have tended to content myself with a slick of mascara. Things are changing though!
My favourite eyeshadows are from The Body Shop and MUA :)
ReplyDeletexo
Hmmm I love MAC Carbon and i love everything from the sleek palette!

If i would have to live with one eyeshadow, that would be Sketch from Mac. I feel that it's a wonderful eyeshadow, when you put it to different colours it changes a little bit in colour itself xD
ReplyDeletelovelly_ank@yahoo.com
Funnily enough the eyeshadow I wear more often than not is Mac Patina....
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower via google reader, thanks for the giveaway.

I have been wanting to try out RBR products for awhile now, so fingers crossed. My favourite eyeshadow is YSL's single in Mink Brown. As it was my first love for YSL and my HG taupe that goes everywhere with me.
ReplyDeleteGood luck all and thank you for your generosity.

That's a wonderful giveaway, thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt's very hard to choose only one favourite eyeshadow as I seem to have a new favourite every week! I'll cheat a little and go with two:
RBR's Unforgettable Oriole and MAC's Patina. Those are probably my most used.
My favourite eyeshadow is a very rich mauve from a Sephora Pallette that I can't remember the name of.
ReplyDeleteI am following you using GFC under schummy.
tnx a lot for the giveaway
Hy,
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow is Guerlain-Ombre Eclat 4 couleurs-Touche de Naturel.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI'm a ninny at technological matters, but I believe I pop up as a follower on the side and you are on my google reader. Thanks so much for the giveaway and featuring an honest opinion on more interesting niche products. This is going to sound odd with all the higher end shadows in my collection, but the shadow I am currently reaching for the most often is Nutty by Wet n Wild. It's a rather lovely tauper colour. Thanks again!

ReplyDeletehello
ReplyDeletei'm a folower under black_beauty nickname, i've post your giveaway on my beauty and make-up blog: http://black-beauty-make-up.blogspot.com/
My favourite e/s is nude, from Nyx, because i use it in every single make-up, an esential e/s for all my eotd's :)
Hi Jane, I can't believe I almost missed your great giveaway, how could I have not seen it before?? I blame the flu! Anyway, if I had to choose (must we really??) a favourite eyeshadow then I think it has to be MAC's Woodwinked, as it's what I wore on my wedding day 5 years ago. It makes my eyes look much bluer and I can use winter and summer alike, day and night. Yes, I know, choosing a MAC shadow is probably "boring", but considering I only have one other single MAC eyeshadow in my collection (Juxt), for me it's a standout!
ReplyDeleteJane, I dont think I did comment after all that!! I think I just thought I had. So I am now...
ReplyDeleteFor day I like BE in Kudos, a gorgeous shimmery neutral/gold or anything from the UD Naked palette. And for evening I love dark, dramatic colours like MAC Deep Truth and Shadowy Lady.

hey Great Giveaway,
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow is satin taupe by mac :)

Mac Mythology is my current favourite eyeshadow
ReplyDeleteMy fave ever eyeshadow is a crazy one, and I don't wear it often, but it's so bright and pigmented and shocking that I love it. It's MAC Chrome Yelllow.. I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteOooh it's so hard to decide, I love love love my urban decay palettes but also loving Korres shadows too. I think for anytime wearableness I would have to choose my UD Naked palette if I really had to choose just one haha. x
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite right now is RBR's Bejewelled Skylark. Now that I think about it, it's the only shadow I will use by itself!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite eyeshadow has to be Warming Trend by MAC. It's a gorgeous golden beige with a veluxe pearl finish to compliment an everyday look.
