I only have a few, but my all time favorites are Azreal Blue and Softwash Grey.

ok, so i tried to take some pics with actual light from outside, but the clouds keep blocking the sun, so these pics aren't too good, but i'm also throwing in some pics that i've taken before, and I'm leaving some pigments out since you can't get 'em on the site anyway.

I would maybe try samples first. The pigments are like $18+ for a pretty large jar. I love them, but there's just so much, it's kinda a waste...But then again you could never have enough of MU right? If you don't know what color you like try samples of differnt shades.

I baught some samples on ebay just to see what would work best for my brown eyes and so far I love:

Melon
Tan
Chocolate Brown
Old Gold

I also baught Teal, Violet, Copper Sparkle, Dark Soul, & Golden Olive but i'm having a hard time with color combos so I haven't really used them that much, only to play around with them. Any suggestion with these colors anyone??

ive used golden olive with teal a few times.. i know it sounds funny, but i put golden olive on the inner corner and blended it into teal all around the outside and used white frost as a highlighter.. it doesnt seem like a good combo but it looked good after it was blended.. i just bought copper sparkle too, i cant wait for it to get here

Imma have to try that. I guess what it comes down to is getting out of my comfort zome and exploring other colors other then the neutrals I usually use. What I have tried and liked was tan on the lid, choco brown in the crease and teal to line the eye. Very pretty!! When you get your Copper Sparkle, let me know what colors combos look best!
