Best Gold Eyeshadow? MAC & other brands
I want it to look really silky and almost soft and creamy seamless looking one but i don't want it to be a cream texture. Also i don't want it to be full on tacky gold, i want a sophisticated one that would look good on my NC43 skin.

I would say Bagatelle if you can still get hold of it.

I love Bagatelle. It's worth looking for. I even bought backups of it because it's LE and I love it so much.

Hmm..i've heard Goldbit is hard to apply, i get the feeling it's not a very smooth and silky looking eyeshadow?

Was Bagatells LE? I always thought that colour was a green when people mentioned it for some reason!

Are there any other golds? I don't want it to be a full on gold. I saw Woodwinked on someone which looked goldish and pretty? Would that be good?

What about Gorgeous Gold... Bagatelle is more of a brown...not gold.

Goldmine is kind of orange golden, but it could work for NC43

Goldmine or Gorgeous Gold eyeshadow over Brassy Fluidline, maybe?
I find that Brassy really makes the eyeshadow pop. Good luck!

Gold E/S
Whats everyones favourite gold eyeshadow.

I loved Casino until i discovered Amber Lights, it goes on so well and is so versatile. its ironic how LE e/s take priority over perm e/s even when their not as good!

any others?

I prefer Gorgeous Gold for a more "yellow" gold and Urban Decay's Half-Baked for a more true gold.

Gorgeous Gold looks greenish on me... I don't have goldmine yet, but it's on my wishlist. I love Gold Dusk pigment!

Goldmine is a good yellow-based pure gold. Gorgeous Gold is more green than gold, don't buy it until you try it.

I am loving this gold e/s I bought from Shu Uemura.

From MAC I like Woodwinked.

Old Gold pigment is nice too but it's not a true gold, it's more like a golden lime green peach shade all rolled into one.
