The texture is amazing, but not the color. :( It's more orange on me than peach/tangerine. It shows up only after layering it on alot.

I got this color in the holiday palette and at first was quite skeptical. No — afraid! But after trying it out, I think it is beautiful!! I use it as a wash, with *folie* in the crease and under...

Having read reviews that Samoa Silk was sheer and tend to show up poorly on many, I was pleasently surprised when it did show up on my NC35 skin tone. On me, it's a matte, peachy coral shade, it...

Wow! I heard these Veluxe shadows were smooth but damn, these are like silk! Now normally I'd look at Samoa Silk & stay as far away as I could, looks quite bright & orange-y in the pot. But I tried...

Somoa Silk is a beautiful peachy orange. I have been looking for the perfect peach forever and have finally found it!!! Somoa Silk is one of MAC's veluxe shadows and has a wonderful silky texture....

It's a matte orange-peach. It looks boring unless I wear something in the crease, so I usually pair it with Paradisco.

Samoa Silk is a peachy-orange color without shimmer. I can wear this as a base color on the lid with something a little more neutral brushed over the top. I absolutely love the texture of the...

Samoa Silk is a peach coral shade. I LOVE the texture of the Veluxe shadows. They are so silky and blend so well. As other reviewers have stated, this shade doesn't show up all that well unless you...

Samoa Silk is a matte medium peach shade and like everyone else said almost identical to stencil. This is one of the least pigmented colors out of the veluxe shades and needed more shadow to get...

Samoa Silk is wonderful in texture and pigment like all of the Veluxe shadows. This MAC formula has made me rethink my usual aversion to matte shadows. Samoa Silk is a peach-coral that to me, is...

Could not deal with it. Took it back to the store. Got another eyeshadow instead. The texture is great and all but I couldn't get the stupid color to show up. When it did show up it had taken me...

I know people are raving about these Veluxe shadows, but I just don't know if I like this kind of texture that much--doesn't feel as luxurious going on--I mean smoother, yes, but richer, no. ...

I agree 100% with Me Too's review below ~ It is an exact match to Stencil. I don't like either because they're both matte and flat looking, but it's a fantastic, brightly pigmented shadow that...

Don't you wonder how they sit around and come up with these names? Samoa Silk looks exactly like Stencil without the hatchmarks across the top, since it's Velux. It is a light peachy coral. I am...
