Sushi Flower with Paradisco
Bitter with Sprout
Beautifull Iris with Plum and Leisuretime
No idea on Tilt
Shroom works well as an highlighter so that's worth getting too as is Vanilla pigment.
Hope that helps.

Why don't you go down to a craft store and grab a color wheel. That way you can see which actual colors and shades compliment each other, and when you go down to a MAC store, you will already know the color families you want, and you can just spend the time on formulations and the precise shade.

How about -

Existing colours
- Sushi Flower (inner) + Beauty Marked (outer) - HOT.
- Swish (inner) + Sushi Flower (outer) or Hepcat (outer)
- Beautiful Iris (lid) + Meadowland (crease)
- Brill (inner) + Meadowland (outer/crease)
- Retrospeck (lid) + Romp (outer/crease)

New, complementary colours
- definitely Contrast or Deep Truth (outer) with Tilt (inner)
- Cranberry (outer/crease) or Paradisco (outer) with Swish (inner)
- Greensmoke (outer/liner) with Bitter (lid)
- Gorgeous Gold (inner) with Meadowland (outer)
- Lucky Green (if you can still find it!) with Humid
