15. Sketch
16. Copperplate
17. Knight Divine
18. Electra
19. Carbon
20. Ploof!
21. Shroom
22. Naked Lunch
23. Brule
24. Gleam
25. Retrospeckt
26. Motif
27. Girlie
28. Haux
29. Kid
30. Swiss Chocolate
31. Texture
32. Amber Lights
33. Embark
34. Mythology
35. Nehru
36. Shadowy Lady

38. Club
39. Sumptious Olive
40. Humid
41. Sushi Flower

So I need some help putting them in the right places in my palette... any help would be appreciated, and if there are any shadows that you love and can't live without that i have missed please let me know!
Thanks in advance!

Well I see that you have a lot of brown/bronze eyeshadows so I would definately make a brown palette, then a nude palette which could also include the gold and pink shimmery eyeshadows on your list and the last palette could be made of all the black/smokey shades that are left.

I have a palette for every colour group, and within those groups, when I kept the insert in, I would arrange them with light colours in the top row, mediums in the middle and dark shades at the bottom. If you look at 3 colours vertically, they were arranged so the 3 colours would coordinate for a smokey eye, but this would (cunningly!) also mean that diagonal combos worked too. My kit grew too much to keep the inserts in so now I have nudes, browns, greys/silver, blues and greens, pink, purple and all the pro colours separately
