So I'm looking for the most epic silver eyeshadow! I want it as reflective as a mirror :D open to any types of products, but bear in mind I'm in the uk

So far the best I've seen is mac dazzleshadow liquid in the shade silver surfer. But wondered if anyone knows anything even better? Please no recommendations for glitter product, I'm after foils/metalic etc finish. Also I'm looking for a true 925 silver colour, some so called silvers had a slight goldish/bronze tone

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond!

I'm a neutral fair olive. Very unsaturated and have a grey/greenish undertone. Have the classic problems of everything looking too orange or pink on me etc luckily my skin isn't too bad these days so I tend to just wear eye or lip makeup. I have always been an alternative person, so always either wore bright red lipstick or bright jewel toned eyeshadow. Always looked good.

Now I'm older and a mum I feel sometimes it may be more appropriate to wear more natural colours. And I'm having a nightmare finding nude/brown shades that look good. Warm shades make my skin look so bad, and always look so orangy, cool shades flatter my skin but as a whole I look like a corpse.

I've always been colour matched as neutral so thinking I need some true neutral colours. I can easily tell warm/cool colours but I can't tell neutral. Can anyone recommend a pallete for me? Bonus points if anyone can recommend me some shades from the big beauty bay pallettes. I own all of them!

The Sephora best skin ever 06O foundation is the closest I've ever found to my perfect match. Pretty much every foundation is not muted enough. I also love the formular. Sadly it's a bit too light. I can get away it, good skin days where I only need a light covering. The next darker shade comes up too orange on me. Can anyone recommend a product to slightly darken it? It really doesn't need to be much darker. I was looking at the Sheglam direct sculpt in soft tan. But as it's very cool I don't know if it will make the foundation look very muddy. I would like a budget suggestion as it don't want to waste money if it doesn't work for me.

If needed I'm a pure neutral light olive. Some lights I look green some I'm very grey and corpse like!

PHOTOS IN COMMENTS I love this whole look, pretty much have it sorted except the lipliner. I have mac whirl and charlotte tilbury iconic nude but both show up well to dark. I liked the look of romand taupey shade 5 but some tiktok videos it looked awful.

I'm looking at getting a colorpop one, would any of these be the same? I've attached pictures of the swatches.

My niece in law is getting into makeup. For her birthday I would like to get her some 'classic' but fun makeup to try. One of them is the Urban Decay Moondust, my initial thought was Space cowboy as its such a classic universal shade. But I'm not sure if I'm looking at it from my white skin point of view. She is Indian with brown skin, would one of the other shades be better for her?

My 13 year old niece in law has started to get into makeup. I wanted to gift her the Soap and Glory sexy mother pucker clear lip gloss. I thought the unique bubbling sensation would be fun for her to try, plus it's also lovely lip gloss that does pump your lips a bit.

But as she will be opening it in front of the whole family I think some of the older members would not be impressed with the name. (her mum would be cool with it, and its her suggestion to buy makeup as a gift)

Can anyone make any suggestions of anything similar with a more normal name. I don't want anything that's too tingly/stingy/painful, also want something clear. But would like the plumping effect!
