Basically, which colors (mainly from MAC, unless they don't have one) would best fit the description of this palette? I'm looking at the MAC site, but remembered that the swatches are not always true to color, so I wanted to ask Specktra

Keep in mind my skin is NC45-ish (Px Antelope)...What I put in red is based off of my own guess from the website--can y'all please help with the rest (and correct me if I guessed wrong)?? I'd really appreciate it.

flesh (shimmer) *Era?

Hey thanks! I didn't even think about MAC Pro

Edit: Pardon my ignorance, but do their pro pans cost the same as in the F/s?

Hmm...Haux is a soft, matte rose color, with just a hint of brown, that might be the rose shade.

The burgundy could be Signed, Sealed, that's a matte shade too, but it's on the plummy side.

hope it helps!

Welcome
Yes, they cost the same.
Also, Deep Damson is deep matte burgundy.

Thanks everyone! I don't think I'd want the "contour" shades to be too dark though, as it would be kinda harsh for my eye shape. My intention is to use it to recess a prominent lid (er, um, attempt to at least).

Is Embark very dark? I have Signed, Sealed and it's definitely more for a crease-defining look or lining the lash line (for what I'm trying to achieve).

ETA: What about Brown Script (Matte^2)? I've never seen it IRL either...
