For a neutral quad I'd do Shroom as the highlight, Swiss Chocolate, Wedge, and either Corduroy or Satin Taupe as the browns. For a smokey eye, I use Carbon (matte), Satin Taupe, Black Tied (has sparkle to it) and Gesso (matte white) as the highlight. A lot of people also use Silver Ring as a silver for a smokey eye. I don't have that, but if I want a silver-based smokey eye instead of my preferred brownish smokey eye, I use Smoke and Diamonds.

There's a lot of great combinations and it just depends on what look you're going for. Those are what I've found to work for me, and I'm an NC 15. I tend to do my eyes pretty dark, and those colors work well for me.

Hi

I am similar colouring to you and shadows I like are:

Phloof!/Ricepaper as highlights

Black Tied/Knight Divine are both lovely black shades, at the moment I tend to use KD. Brun and Satin Taupe go together well also, and if you can get hold of Smoke and Diamonds (Starflash) this makes a great smokey eye.

Just noticed I've mentioned pretty much the same as Kiss and Makeup-great minds!
