    I really like this shadow, I love to use on the "natural" looking days. The days where my makeup is more subtle, it gives a nice natural color to my lid and makes me look awake. Which reminds me,...

    I didn't think I'd like the eyeshadow that much because when I first got it & tested it on my finger, there was lots of color on the finger but transferred to my hand it barely showed up. So since...

    I LOVE Bamboo! It is one of my absolute favourite colours for all over the lid. On me (NW20, blue eyes and honey blonde hair ) it shows up as a peachy beige which is incredibly flattering. I love...

    This is a very limited shadow for me. It's too light and orangey to use over my lid or as a highlight. How I use it, is as an in-between the highlight/brown bone and crease color. It's a good...

    On my (NC37-42) olive-toned, tanned skin, Bamboo shows up as a peachy-beige that works best as an all over wash. In terms of its texture as a MAC matte, it’s not quite as smooth as say, a matte2...

    I LOVE this matte!!! Bamboo sat in my mu drawer untouched for months...one day I decided to use it on the lid with cork in the crease and embark in the crease. This is my PERFECT neutral eye look...

    I use this as an alternative to soft brown when I'm doing lighter colours and want a blending colour after the crease colour before the highlight/brownbone colour. Sometimes i use it on top of soft...

    This is a great shadow for a warm subtle look. I like pairing it with Cork in the crease. The texture is nice and goes on pretty well.

    As a few have already stated, this shadow is not dark enough for the crease and not light enough for a highlight...Which works perfect for me..I have hooded eyes and I apply this all over up to the...

    I love Bamboo! I really don't know why it doesn't seem to get much love. It is my go-to color. Perfect!

    Hmm, i'm not sure about this colour. I have fair-medium yellow toned skin. This colour looks like a dirty grey faded-orange on me. A bit like i just rubbed off my eye makeup but you can still see...

    A MUA recommended this to me for blending. I was not impressed when I saw this in the pan, but it looks GREAT with my pale skin and blue eyes. Really makes my eyes pop! I will buy more, oh yes!...

    PROS: Well pigmented. Somewhat creamy and soft texture. (I think Bobbi Brown's texture or MAC's veluxe or satin finish is better for blending.) Lasts quite well on my N15 (leaning to NC) eye,...

    My favourite MAC eyeshadow. The only shadow I've made a dent in! It's pretty similar to my skintone (NC40) but with a peachier tone to it. It really brightens up my green eyes and looks natural,...

    Not quite dark enough to be a crease color. Not quite light enough to be a highlight color. (at least not on my skin tone) I typically use it to blend out other colors. It's very neutral & goes...
