MAC: Essential Eye Shadows

[DaisyPie]

I'd like to fill two 15 pan palettes, and I was wondering if I could get peoples' opinions on which colours they'd choose in each category, if they could only choose one for each.
If the colour you suggest is LE could you please suggest two colours incase I am unable to find somewhere to buy it online?

1. Light Pink =
2. Dark Pink =
3. Light Purple =
4. Dark Purple =
5. Light Green =
6. Dark Green =
7. Teal =
8. Aqua =
9. Peach / Coral =
10. Light Blue =
11. Medium Blue =
12. Dark/Smokey Blue =
13. Light Brown =
14. Medium Brown =
15. Dark Brown =
16. Maroon/Dark Red =
17. Bronze =
18. Copper =
19. Gold =
20. Silver =
21. Black =
22. Dark Grey =
23. Light Grey =


The rest of the pans will be filled up with random cool-tone colours I like and some basic highlighters and neutrals.

Any help would be great and any suggestions or advice will be wonderful!

My Favs are:
white: crystal avalanche
maroon/dark red: cranberry
dark grey: moth brown - mac_aiken has it for sale if you dont have it
black: i like black tied but it is very shimmery or carbon
light purple: stars and rockets
dark pink: post haste is beautiful but on my skin color it looks like im wounded
bronze: amber lights is very pretty almost brownish

Those are some off the top of my head, I use mostly pigments. I have a lot more shadows but those are the ones that stuck out to what you were looking for. Hope this helps

Thank you both for your help!

So far I have decided on these colours for sure:

1. Light Pink =
2. Dark Pink =
3. Light Purple = Stars N Rockets
4. Dark Purple = Nocturnelle
5. Light Green =
6. Dark Green = Humid
7. Teal =
8. Aqua = Aquadisiac
9. Peach / Coral = Paradisco (I already own this colour)
10. Light Blue = Moon's Reflection
11. Medium Blue = Freshwater
12. Dark/Smokey Blue =
13. Light Brown =
14. Medium Brown =
15. Dark Brown = Espresso
16. Maroon/Dark Red = Cranberry

I'm still deciding on the other colours, but I really like the sound of all the options you both said - I'll have to pop into a MAC store and swatch them to decide for sure.

Apart from Paradisco and Scene, I also own: Ricepaper, Bamboo, Brule and All That Glitters. I also have on order Surreal, Digit, and Bisque.

Would Surreal be suitable for the Teal category?
