I wish this wasn't a discontinued product. I got my hands on this beautiful, little transition color not too long ago and I love it! It is perfectly neutral, yet warms up my cooler eye looks and...

Samoa Silk is on the way out (it's on MAC's goodbye page) so I immediately ran out to buy it even though I wasn't sure it would work out. It's a nice matte peach leaning toward orange (Arena is...

This is a lovely, wearable peach. I was lucky enough to find it at a CCO while traveling. I like wearing it in the crease when I feel like changing things up. No complaints here!

I really love this color. It goes with so many shades. I espicially like it with sable. Because sable never really worked for me. But with samoa silk it does. Goes well with greans too.

Samoa Silk is a nice matte peachy color for those with tan to dark skin. It goes on smoothly and pops quite nicely on my skin. I like using it with a matte brown shadow in the crease and black gel...

On my lids, this color comes out to a really matte, light, peachy orange color. I honestly hated this color before but now I love it because I've been into neutral looks. My fave way to wear this...

Deleting my review as a small (no doubt futile) protest against the board changes released in May 2019

Love this peachy orange shadow. The texture is so smooth and silky, blends like a dream, has a matte finish, and on my fair complexion I find it quite pigmented. Pairs well with many different...

This is my all time favorite eye shadow of all time for neutral looks. At first glance it looks a bland but when applied to the eyes it brightens the eye and makes you look more awake. I pair it...

I've had this e/s for about 2 years and never paid much attention to it until recently. I'm going through a natural/no makeu-makeup phase, and I think this is perfect for that. A light not shimmery...

Looks beautiful against my nc40 skin. A light peach colour. Good pigmentation and amaaaazing texture! Like butter, almost melts into your skin- in a good way! Love it so much I put it in my...

LOVE this colour! I was hesitant after reading the reviews, because most of the ones for fair skin that I read didn't like the colour on them. But like the previous reviewer, I just couldn't stop...

I love this colour!!! It looks pretty orange in the pan and I was a little apprehensive when the MUA showed it to me and swatched it on her own hand. She had a much lighter skin tone than and i...

Samoa Silk's best feature is its texture--buttery smooth. However, the pigmentation could be bumped up a bit. On my GGG skin, it is very subtle. I need a minimum of three applications to make it...

PROS: Love the "veluxe" finish. Like buttah. Blended and applied very smoothly. No shimmer, which is a pro to me. I thought this would be too orange or bright on me, but if I applyiedlightly,...

In the pan it looks very orange but I was pleasantly surprised when I put it on. Nice pale coral colour and a lovely neutral shade on the lid when I don't want to dazzle. I don't think it would...

I only use it as a highlight for the brow bone. It really doesn't do anything for me. It barely shows on my skin. Thinking about adding it to my Swap list. But don't think I will be buying this...

I actually like Samoa Silk, its a really nice peachy nude matte eyeshadow. I use it as an eyebrow highlight and on the lid. Its a good color for blending out any harsh lines and is a color that is...

Definitly too orange for my taste. I expected this to be more of a peachy-beige color, but it just screams "ORANGE" on my lids. Blech! I saw this on a MAC face chart and the eyes looked really...
