Goldmine e/s or Gold pigment.

I don't know how it compares, but have you looked at Urban Decay's Deluxe Shadow in Honey?

^I second UD Deluxe e/s in Honey...it's perfect. I'm NC30 too. Goldmine, Golden Lemon, Gold pigment are lovely gold shades too. You can also check out Shu Uemura e/s..they have a lot of different shades of gold e/s that are really lovely and have great colour payoff.

this is my rec too, the texture is amazing, great color payoff

Definitely the MAC Gold (metal) Pigment. It's Pro, but if you can get it, it is soooo beautiful. And you only need a tiny, tiny bit, it's so "liquidy".

Mac Fafi cashflow paint pot with UD deluxe honey on top... looks gorgeous

[jmthoreson]

I Love gold eyeshadows, among my favorites are: Shisiedo hydro shadows gold (this is the best gold I have ever seen, and the texture is amazing), urban decay half baked and urban decay deluxe honey.

mac goldmine and urban decay honey. i am a gold shadow nut and i LOVE those two.

[msmack]

MAC gold pigment (metal). It's a beautiful true gold.

[patty0411]

MAC Goldmine e/s and Cash Flow p/p. My favorite color in the world!

[aziajs]

Cash Flow paint pot is similar to Pure Ore. It can crease too. It just depends on your lids.

[Kuuipo]

Bare Minerals has Perfect Gold which is a gold, gold-like Icon painting gilt.....I mean really GOLD. Goldmine does not hold a candle to it, and the MAC gold pigment has more yellow.

[MissChievous]

I also recently discovered MAC Gold Mode pigment, it's a lighter shade of gold and it looks really gorgeous, it was LE but you can buy samples of it.

[Dani California]

I love golds:

some of my faves:

MAC Woodwinked
MAC Cosmic
MAC All that Glitters - this is my fave for that peachy/golden look

I need to check out those UD ones!!

[Rene]

Corn shadestick as a base then put goldmine on top of that. That makes a pretty gold.

I ended up getting, sight unseen, "El Dorado" from UD.
I like it, but it's very very shimmery, and if I apply it too thickly it looks very yellow, which is not a flattering look for me. (NW15; brunette; green eyes)
Lightly applied, though, it makes a fun gold highlight, and can even be reasonably subtle if applied carefully.

IAWTC OMG! it's the most beautiful gold I've ever seen. Too bad it creases a little.

[kaexbabey]

which mac eyeshadow is a true metallic gold? not too copper or too yellow just gold please. thanks!

[stacylynne]

goldmine & amber lights. I personally love Amber Lights

[xxManBeaterxx]

*sigh* i've been trying to find a true bold gold color from macs eyeshadow line, goldmine is a yellow gold, and amberlights is an orangey gold... And as far as L/E goes i've been collecting mac since 2004 and i still havent met one.

But alas pigments!!! Unfortunately its not an eyeshadow but gold(metal) or rose gold PRO pigments are gorgeous true golds.. I took this review off of MUA and i agree with her 100%

OK! i just bought this and even tho the label says "GOLD" on it. I'm thinking this is more of a GOLD METAL. I've read the reviews on the plain gold pigment, and mines matches GOLD METAL review to the LETTER! since it is NOT at all shimmery BUT metallic-y.
First off, liquid gold when wet? uh yuh huh!! this is an ABSOLUTELY TRUE gold!.. Dry it can look muddy.. but when applied wet as an eyeliner? IT's truly stunning!..a very true bold gold! no muddiness whatsoever.. i love this. .i was searching for a gold pigment and this is perfect.. I tried.. goldmine e/s too much shimmer and not a true gold. Gorgeous Gold.. too light and has that green tint!.. i have OLD GOLD so i didn't need something similar. The texture of this particular pigment is unlike their shimmery ones! it is a heavy PURE pigment!.. anything this touchs u'll get bold gold!! even with the slightest brush!!which i love. when i first bought mine the jar was about 2/3 full i was quite disappointed at first.. thinking i was being a little jipped, but i know now that since it's such a heavy pigmented colour. it all settles to the bottom.. w/o any air allowed.. hence.. pure pigment am i making any sense at all? lol !! i LOVE this!! just get it!! u won't regret, and ONE jar with last FOREVER as u only need a smidge and from what the SA at MAC tells me.. since their pigments are dry and contains no emollients? they do NOT expire!!.. YES!

[kaexbabey]

thank you both! i think i'll be getting the pigment but have always wanted amber lights as well even though it does look a bit orangey!

[nunu]
