A MAC store is a heaven for a make up addict like me. But with over 150 eyeshadows to choose from, not to mention the limited edition ones, choosing eyeshadows especially for newbies can be a trepidating task. I have compiled my top 15 eyeshadows so that it can serve as a guide if anyone is interested in building their own palettes. Picking only 15 is so difficult because there are so many gorgeous colors and I want to include all of them. I tried my very best to make it a variety of colors from highlighters to neutrals and to blues and greens. My list has some matte and shimmery finishes as well. All of these shadows have buttery texture, very easy to blend and have very good pigmentation. I hope you enjoy it!
