first post...bare with me

I bought mac eyeshadow in paradisco, and i have no idea what to use it with. I have NC 20 skin, brown eyes. I've tried to blend it with different shades, but the best blending combo i've come across is with Mulch. But i hope there's a better way... any suggestions?

Try these:

PARADISCO

1.Paradisco with Mulch in the crease or Juiced in the crease & Ricepaper to highlight.

2. Orb all over, Paradisco on lid and either Orange, Rule, Texture in crease

3. Paradisco & Trax

4. Paradisco&Blackberry

5. Pink Venus on lid, Paradisco in crease & Cranberry for outer corner & liner.

6. Colors to pair with Motif: Cranberry, Trax, Sketch, Plumage, Contrast, Shale, Satin Taupe, Paradisco & Swish.

7. Jest, Paradisco & Cranberry.

8. Bitter with Guacamole on the outer 1/3, and Deep Truth to line. Paradisco lightly in the crease, and Casa Blanca to highlight.

8. Paradisco on lid, Cranberry in crease & Nylon on inner corners. for lips try Jist l/s & Sunbasque blush.

9. Aquadisiac (lid),Coppering(outer crease), Paradisco inner crease and highlight.

10. Nocturnelle w/Paradisco and Sweeten Up.

11. Mediteranee Duo-I've worn it several ways: with the gold shade from lash to crease and the orange in the crease/V; in the crease with Paradisco on inner 1/3 and Tempting on outer 2/3 od lid; and with swimming on lid and the orange half over black eyeliner.

12. Melon pigment as a wash, Bronze on the outer 1/3 and to contour, and Paradisco in the center.

13. Paradisco on lid and in crease, Gleam as a wash from crease to browbone & Blue Peep fluidline to line eyes.

14. I use Club as the "smoke" (I have green eyes), Paradisco lightly crease to brow, Nocturnelle outer >, Vellum inner corner, & Cranberry that I'll touch next to the outer >. Then I blend, blend, blend. It is a strange, yet quite interesting "smoky" look.

15. Golden Lemon pigment on the inner third of your eyelid with Paradisco on the 2/3.

16. Electric Eel to line with Bare Canvas, Paradisco, Juiced or Guacamole.

17. Paradisco+Trax+Sketch.

18. Paradisco with: Love it paired w/ Parfait Amour or Nars Santorini , I love it on the lid with Naked Lunch to highlight, line bottom lashes with a teal e/s, apply it over Improper Copper CCB to get more rich color, I love it with Mulch.

19. Bare Canvas Paint as a base, Paradisco on the inner half of lid, Hepcat on outer half, Nocturnelle blended in and into the crease, Naked Lunch or Jest to highlight, Prunella to line.

20. Cranberry-pair with Swish, Bronze, Patina, Paradisco.

21. Paradisco on the lid with Sketch in the crease. Another MUAer had photos of this combo posted and it was so pretty that I tried it myself and it does indeed look awesome.

23. Paradisco on lid with Melton Mauve on outer lid/ crease is nice.

Bare Camvas as base, Sushi Flower fromlash to just above crease, Paradisco blended into inner 1/3, Bronze wet to line upper and lower, then gone over with dry Bronze for a smoky look, Shroom on browbone.

I did it once with Retrospeck on the inner corners to about the first 1/3 of lid and than Paradisco on the rest of the lid. Shroom as brow highlight.

I have paradisco, but I don't have much else to combine it with (my shadow collection is very small and new) but I love it as a lid wash...I'm really pale and it just brightens up whatever else I'm wearing. Other ways I've used it are:

Paradisco blended into Coppering with Velvet Moss in the outer V of my eye (I know this probably sounds like a totally weird combination, but I love greens and pinks and reds together. I thought it looked cool...)

Paradisco blended into something really light gold.
