Marnie - Thank you so much for your walk through And swatching of your MAC-Z palette. I also really appreciate that you went to the trouble of listing the colors in the description box. You are always so professional in how you present on your channel - though I have said this before it is worth repeating because it is unusual and appreciated.
Thank you so much for this! I don't own any MAC shadows, (mainly because the sales people totally ignore me 'cause I'm not 20 something). but have always wanted to put together my own palette. Now I can order on line and avoid the trauma of the store!
Thank you for showing your collection. I don't own one Mac shadow but my dream is to purchase the leopard Z palette and start! You have given me some great inspiration.
Grain is one of my Mac staples, glad someone else is appreciating it too! Seems to get overlooked. Two more of my absolute favorites are Club and Shale. I am fair skinned with light hair and blue eyes and just love both of these colors!
Hi Marnie!! I have a question for you. If you had to pick your favorite color combo of these mac shades,what would they be. I am wanting to buy some mac shadows to try and I just want to start out so what shades would you recommend for an everyday look?
Hi Marnie! I don't have very many MAC shadows as of yet. I have worn Omega for years and love how it is a soft ashy brown shade for my crease. Would love a tutorial using Omega and any other shades you would use to combine with it!
I would love to see a tutorial with the following MAC eyeshadows: All That Glitters, Cork, Swiss Chocolate & Blanc Type. A MAC shadow worth owning is Carbon. As a blonde myself, it sounds a bit daunting...but trust me, it works. I apply it on my outer corner, and I blend as if my life depended on it ;) It's not an "everyday" color/look but it is a great out of your comfort zone/nighttime look.
I loved this! I think that MAC shadows are the best and I use them all the time. Your collection is beautiful! I noticed that you don't have Quarry or Copperplate. I have green eyes and love blackberry. Great video!
I have 4 MAC shadows - Naked Lunch, Mulch, Cranberry, and Satin Taupe. I don't really love any of them. I never reach for them. Naked Lunch just doesn't have enough pigmentation. Satin Taupe doesn't either. Mulch is pretty good, but I the shades that are similar to it in my Too Faced Palettes are way softer, pigmented, and blend easier. I always wonder if I should give them another chance.
The price on Mac shadows in the pan has come down to $6 instead of $10 recently on the Mac site. Maybe other places too. Would love to see tutorial with any combinations of Omega, naked lunch, wedge, blanc type. Thanks for sharing.
I love some of the same shades as you and I can't get satin taupe to work on me either!!! I end up looking like I have black eyes!!! I have a more olive skin tone and my eyes are green and I love wood winked too!! It is one of my most used shades!! I also love vex!! It is the most unique Mac shade that I have!!! The shade I think you would love and it probably is my favorite crease color is brown script!!
Thanks Marnie! Would you mind doing a de-potting video? I would like to take that large tart eye shadow box from Christmas and put in it a z palette. Thanks!
Hi from the UK! You have a lovely collection of shadows. I'd love to see some tutorials for spring/summer looks including arena, all that glitters, vex, soba, omega, cork and wedge. Have you looked at era - it's a beautiful satin finish, a beige creamy taupe? I love it on the lid with wedge and cork or swiss chocolate or saddle in the crease.
Love your videos. This is a super Mac update and reminds me to use my Mac shadows more. I very much like Quarry, Shale, Kid, Blanc Type that come to mind at the moment. I think several eye looks and combos would make an interesting video with any new shades you discover along the way. I also love Too Faced and Tarte shadows. Do you plan to get The new Sweet Peach palette when it's restocked?
I am a new subbie and am really enjoying watching your channel. You come across as very down to earth and very relatable. I like that you do not only just makeup ...which I love, but also food, home decor etc. I look forward to watching some of your past videos. My daughter is in Dallas right now, training with AA as flight attendant. I have never been to Texas but I will soon. We get to see her graduate. Have a great weekend. Leslie
I'm pretty fair with very hooded eyelids, so I'm not very adventurous when it comes to eyeshadow. I usually just wear one color all over the lid. My favourite MAC shades are: Brule, Vanilla, Naked Lunch, Malt, Quarry, Omega and Satin Taupe. I would love to see a tutorial with your favourite shades!
Question: do you ever wear just one color? I really prefer to only wear one color and then use another darker color to line both upper and lower. I am looking for that perfect one color product! My coloring is light skin and deep blonde hair. If you (or any random person reading comments) has a suggestion, that would be appreciated. Thanks!
+S Sharp I'm also fair with dark blonde hair and I usually wear Bobbi Brown Antique Rose, Laura Mercier Fresco, MAC Malt or Urban Decay Laced all over the lid. All shades are great subtle, matte cool neutrals.
I'm catching up today on videos. I don't have a eye shadow Mac collection except the Painterly Paint pot. I love it for a primer. I would be interested in the top 4 shades for brown eyes because I've been looking at them. Now they have dropped the price a bit too.
+Jennifer Ann Fox (Feathers in the Nest) after I wrote that, I was like....ok I do have some Mac shadows I forgot? I just took some migraine meds...LOL I got the little palettes last summer Navy x 9, and burgandy x 9.. They were great for sampling many of the shadows in a small dime size. I think Amber x 9 would be great too.
Hi Marnie, I have depotted and placed my pans in there, too have them slip around...perhaps I should have gotten a stronger magnet? What did you use to place your pans in the ZPalette? Thanks!
Never owned a MAC eyeshadow, but as we are both fair skinned with green eyes, this video has given me some ideas on what colors to look for in my usual drugstore brands (Wet 'n Wild, NYX, Maybelline), so thank you! Just a quick side note, the sound on this video was a little off for me, not sure if it was your mic or my iPad, but I still loved the video! :)
Hi, Marnie. Is blanc type similar to wet & wild brulee? If I love brulee as a brow bone highlight, do you think I'll be able to tell a difference with blanc type. Asking because mac gal told me that they are discontinuing blanc type
I'm so glad MAC lowered their prices! I have 2 full palettes and just ordered 25 more at a pro price of $3...you cant beat it! Great video idea, really liked see what you have and love!
Saying taupe is the one I bought when I went shopping with you and it doesn't work for me either but like you, I keep trying different ways hopping one day it will! One of my favorites is wheat, never ever mentioned on you tube! For me it works wonderful all over the lid and as a highlight...
Marnie I have a question and could use some help. I just bought another blanket from QVC it said it was light weight and I get hot yes it is down I just realized to stay away from a blanket that has down in it. What do you call this type of blanket and where can I buy one . Please help . Lori from NJ
It grinds my gears that MAC discontinue our favourite shadows, instead of discontinuing the more 'gaudy' colours. We can't get Saddle or Soft Brown (and I think Kid has vanished from the radar too!) ....over here and now they're discontinuing Blanc Type !!! Zabrena from myeyeshadowconsultant bought 4 blanc types as back ups a few days ago :/ xxx
+Carole Evans I find it unbelievably frustrating that they haven't reflected the price drop over here as yet. It almost makes me want to stop buying them until they do. Didn't realise that Blanc Type is being discontinued so thanks for the heads up! x
SkinDeepBeautyVlog It's insanity that they haven't dropped their prices... We can get Make Up geek now for £4.99 over here at Beauty Bay and they're equally as good as MAC. Mac have so much competition with Make up revolution, freedom london, make up geek and morphe - you'd think they'd do something to encourage us to stay loyal customers with them...x
What's the life expectancy of most eye shadows? I seem to get so many, I end up having them a long time. I don't want to put something on my eye that I shouldn't. BTW, these are gorgeous!
+Peggy Thomas I've rarely thrown out an eyeshadow. Sometimes they get really dry and then you can't get any color out of them, but if you scrape off the top layer they usually work again!
I love you and your videos! You're amazing and your dogs are adorable. I hate to ever criticize, but the sound was wonky a bit and the focus was in and out but I'm sure you know that.
+4227Style Isn't Saddle discontinued ? It is here in the UK...I don't know what MAC are thinking half of the time...we can't get kid or soft brown and now they're getting rid of blanc type !!! :/ x
Hey you 43 year old fox!! Thanks for the list, I'm going to print it and keep it in my palette organizer with my dupes written beside each, then maybe I can follow your GRWM videos. You know, the videos your going to do using this Z palette, right????😉😆😘
The Mac eyeshadows are so hit/miss , I don't even bother with them anymore. My favorites by far are the Makeup Geek eyeshadows , Anastasia Beverly Hills and MakeupForEver
I saw a video where they test on animals, I was interested in their lip color till I saw this. Do you know if they test their cosmetics on animals?...The video was horrific
Hi Marnie! I'm a long time viewer, first time commenter. I ordered my first M.A.C shadows yesterday. Here is my palette: imgur.com/qK7tOnP. I'm tan-deep skin tone and I hope these will work for me. What do you think of my choices? Love your videos!!
Thank you for this! So helpful and perfect timing with spring updates. Your makeup is always so stunning.
Thank you for this! Have you done a go to daytime eye tutorial? I'd love to see one!
Wow Marnie! This video of the Mac shadows are perfect. Great job at giving a swatch of all the shades....this really helped!
Marnie - Thank you so much for your walk through And swatching of your MAC-Z palette. I also really appreciate that you went to the trouble of listing the colors in the description box.

Please use your newest shade Arena in a spring eye tutorial. It is so pretty!
Such pretty colors! Thanks for listing and holding them up at the end! Looking forward to seeing what color combo gets suggested.
Thank you so much for this! I don't own any MAC shadows, (mainly because the sales people totally ignore me 'cause I'm not 20 something). but have always wanted to put together my own palette. Now I can order on line and avoid the trauma of the store!
Please do a tutorial using woodwinked. What would you pair with it?
Hi, Shroom is a nice colour as well... it's a soft beige with satin shimmer. Really nice al over the lid in a nomakeupday ....
Thank you for showing your collection. I don't own one Mac shadow but my dream is to purchase the leopard Z palette and start! You have given me some great inspiration.
I bought coperling (sp) yesterday. Light dust in outter crease is so beautiful
I think Twinks is my all time favorite Mac shadow. I need to show my Mac shadows some love, thanks for reminding me about them. xoxoxo
I absolutely LOVE "Star Violet" - such a unique color.... and of course "Quarry" for a cool-look crease shade. :) Great video!!
Star Violet is one of my favorites as well, and I have blue eyes and blonde hair.

I love Gleam. It's just like honey lust in texture but I find they work great with a glitter glue. 😍
They are great if you spray your brush with fix + too :)
Thanks Marnie! Would you mind doing a de-potting video? I would like to take that large tart eye shadow box from Christmas and put in it a z palette. Thanks!
Vanilla is a good under the brow color/highlight, was one of the first ones I bought! Good basic one.
I wonder if satin taupe would work better if you used a warm skin tone cream base or one in a taupe or plummy shade.
Marnie, have you used any eyeshadows from the brand Karity? They are suppose to offer great MAC dupes.
Lovely shades! My absolute must have is Ricepaper, I think you need It :))) Also, Sumptuous Olive is an amazing green, I think you might love it too!
Hi from the UK!

+Jacqui Harney Great suggestions-I'll try!
My favorite Mac colors are all that glitters, wedge, and saddle. I also love mulch and satin taupe.
Oh and woodwinked!! I love love love woodwinked.
Love your videos. This is a super Mac update and reminds me to use my Mac shadows more. I very much like Quarry, Shale, Kid, Blanc Type that come to mind at the moment.

+Jean Bowers I'm so annoyed I didn't get it already! I had no idea it was coming out!
I love grain , maybe try jest it's better than naked lunch .jest was my first Mac shadow and I love it .

Hey Marnie! I have a full palette, but also a bunch of shades I've had for years in individual pots....do you have a de-potting video?
+Michelle Moncure I don't-I just keep watching other people's!
+Marnie Goldberg I tried one a long time ago, but ended up cracking the product. :(
Question: do you ever wear just one color? I really prefer to only wear one color and then use another darker color to line both upper and lower. I am looking for that perfect one color product! My coloring is light skin and deep blonde hair. If you (or any random person reading comments) has a suggestion, that would be appreciated. Thanks!
+S Sharp I should have added that woodwinked isn't really for me. Prefer something just subtle and matte.
Thank you Cathy!
+S Sharp I'm also fair with dark blonde hair and I usually wear Bobbi Brown Antique Rose, Laura Mercier Fresco, MAC Malt or Urban Decay Laced all over the lid. All shades are great subtle, matte cool neutrals.
thank you!
+S Sharp You're welcome!
would love to see a mac tutorial,
I'm catching up today on videos. I don't have a eye shadow Mac collection except the Painterly Paint pot. I love it for a primer.
I would be interested in the top 4 shades for brown eyes because I've been looking at them. Now they have dropped the price a bit too.

Love Mac shadows! Need a few of the ones you showed now!! Where do you purchase the z palette? How many shadow does it hold?
+melissa pintone I put links in the description box-and it holds 28 mac shadows.
Hi Marnie, I have depotted and placed my pans in there, too have them slip around...perhaps I should have gotten a stronger magnet? What did you use to place your pans in the ZPalette? Thanks!
+Shana Lee I didn't add any magnets to my pans-they just stay put.
+Marnie Goldberg grrrr...mine slide around. Mine are also pans I depotted, not the pro-pans bought as is. Thanks!
I bought some of the pots that your suggested, thanks! But how do you depot them to put them in the palette?
+Donna Martin There are some GREAT videos on UA-cam on how to do that. Mostly involving a flat iron!
Just watched your mac shadows in Zpallet. .Mac web does not show shadow containers. Where did you get it?
Never owned a MAC eyeshadow, but as we are both fair skinned with green eyes, this video has given me some ideas on what colors to look for in my usual drugstore brands (Wet 'n Wild, NYX, Maybelline), so thank you! Just a quick side note, the sound on this video was a little off for me, not sure if it was your mic or my iPad, but I still loved the video! :)
+Shari Puddicombe (Busy Mama) It was, but I FINALLY figured it out! I promise going forward its good!
I would love to see a one shadow tutorial using woodwinck
Are you still off acrylic extensions? Your nails look awesome, love the colour!
+Emma 1305 I haven't been off extensions in years! These are acrylics-just grown long. I'm about to cut them down to a more manageable short length.
You should try Amber Lights... I bet it would make your blue eyes POP!
Hi, Marnie. Is blanc type similar to wet & wild brulee? If I love brulee as a brow bone highlight, do you think I'll be able to tell a difference with blanc type. Asking because mac gal told me that they are discontinuing blanc type
+Mary Lim Not worth it-stick with Wet n Wild!
+Marnie Goldberg Thanks, love how you just tell it like it is!
I'm so glad MAC lowered their prices! I have 2 full palettes and just ordered 25 more at a pro price of $3...you cant beat it! Great video idea, really liked see what you have and love!

I meant to write satin taupe!!!!
You need Folie ( a warm/purple dark brown ) perfect for the crease, Amber light ( a warm golden bronze ) ans Sumptuous olive !!
+rendezvousbeauty Yes a favorite combo of mine is naked lunch all over and Folie in the crease - beautiful!
Folie is a must have !

A couple of my favorites are Honesty and Bronze. You and I are both blonde, blue eyed and live neutrals. :)
Great video. Yes for a tutorial please! Perhaps your top 3 looks using MAC shadows.... Oh, and you need SKETCH 😉
I finally learned how to make a baked potato thanks to you-
Thank you for doing this video! Your swatches left MUCH to be desired, but you have a beautiful collection. :)
+Amber Matthews It's WAY harder than it looks to film swatches! Definitely something I still need to figure out.

Thanks for sharing! 💕👍🏼😊
Satin taupe doesn't work for me either!!!!!
Surprised not to see Saddle or Bamboo. I'm generally into cool tones, but had to have those, they are very versatile. Karen
+4227Style Isn't Saddle discontinued ? It is here in the UK...I don't know what MAC are thinking half of the time...we can't get kid or soft brown and now they're getting rid of blanc type !!! :/ x
+Carole Evans -- that could be, I've heard tat it was discontinued from people in the UK a few times, I am in the states so I can't say for certain.
+Carole Evans, I can't believe they'd get rid of Soft Brown or Blanc Type, that's just crazy in my opinion.
4227Style I know, they're the basic neutrals that many people use... it's crazy !! xx
