MAC Eye Shadow Palettes


Hey guys! I get a lot of questions about my MAC eye shadow palettes that I use in my tutorials so I figured this would be the best way for you all to see them and how I organize them. These are all my palettes that I use on myself. No kit stuff here. (I just really love eye shadows ok? haha) I really just organize them in a way that makes sense for me. Also, not all of them are full...I kind of have a phobia of filling them up! ...because then there's no room for more! :) Gotta' have room to grow right??

Labeled from left to right, top row to bottom row.
Colors followed by a * are my favorites :)

How I keep the actual palettes organized:
I keep them in a drawer of my vanity with the labels on the back. These are just simple labels that you can buy in the office/school supply section of any store. They peel off super easily too, as I've had to replace them several times because they get dirty. They should stay nice for months though :)



If you have any questions about the palettes or shadows themselves (where to buy, how much they cost, MAC Pro, etc.), check out my YouTube channel. All those questions are answered in my new MAC FAQ video (coming soon!) I also show you how I have them organized in the drawer.

wz on January 29, 2009 2:05 PM said...[Reply]

so i'm new to depotting and thought maybe i'd give a try sometime~ so my question is, you can take the shadows out of the palettes after you've placed them right?
sorry if the answer seems obvious to you guys :P

Hi Tiffany! I've loved watching your videos, and I've learned a ton from your tutorials!

I'd love to hear where you shop for your accessories - I'm always admiring your earrings! Point me in their direction, please :)

WOW! I'm in awe. First of all, thank you for posting this. This is going to be of tremendous value to be when selecting eyeshadow! You rock Tiffany!

Gail on January 29, 2009 7:45 PM said...[Reply]

Thanks so much for this post, esp for the asterisk so I know which ones to really get tempted by. I recently got Shale and I love it so much!
I never knew you could B2M the prop palettes, how exciting! So no reason at all to be buying pots anymore. Thanks! Love your palettes and organisation xx Great blog (and YT!)

Liz W on January 29, 2009 8:43 PM said...[Reply]

Thanks so much for this! I was salivating over here looking at all the pretty colors. I never tire of looking at people's palettes.

Natasha on January 29, 2009 8:58 PM said...[Reply]

Tiffany!!

I love your post! Great organization! I am ready to depot my MAC shadows and place them into my pro palette I just received today in the mail. Yey!!

Like the other readers, I am so jealous of your MAC collection. I am getting ready to make mine grown. Especially that the Hello Kitty Collection will be coming out soon!

Thanks for all you do! I will have to list you as a fav on my blog.

Natasha :)

Marissa on January 29, 2009 11:41 PM said...[Reply]

You are so organized it's intimidating. Thanks for saying which ones are Pro colors!!!
I see how you have all your palettes, what about your other make-up in regards to organization??

Anonymous said...[Reply]

You need to do a video with all the other colors you haven't used, that will give me an excuse to go buy everything you have.....oops! did I just say that???.......GRACIAS Tiffany...your new friend Monica!!

Great pics! Thanks so much for sharing.

In your vid, you mentioned you were gonna press some of your favorite pigments. I would love to know what method you use. I want to give it a try but I'm a bit nervous about wasting my pigments just to make a huge mess.

Thanks! Danielle

ym on January 30, 2009 8:17 PM said...[Reply]

This post must have taken so much work! And it's such a personal thing, how you organize your colours, so interesting to see. Thankyou so much T! :D

Ali F. said...[Reply]

Thank you so much for posting these pics. Very helpful information here! A little off topic, but I was wondering if you could post some pics of you hair style on your blog. I have an angled bob hairstyle, but I recently got it a little shorter and want it to grow another inch or two. Your hair is very inspirational, and I am going to have to try the velcro rollers.

MsEclectic said...[Reply]

WOW nice collection... you dont have deep truth...jaw drops LOL well looking back at the pictures blue flame looks pretty similar to it :)

Thanks for this post.
Its very helpful.
I love greens and blues.

Valz on March 1, 2009 6:45 AM said...[Reply]

Those palettes are amazing!! :)

Ever thought about placing some transparent scotch tape over the labels, to prevent them from peeling off and getting dirty? ;)

Shamini on March 1, 2009 10:44 AM said...[Reply]

Wow, I just love this post! I hope I'll have as many colours as you some day. Thanks for sharing! :)

sweets54999 on March 8, 2009 7:42 AM said...[Reply]

Hi Tiffany, I agree with everyone, Im super envious, and I love the organisation!
I was wondering how does Nehru and Meet the Fleet compare? I am looking for a navy-ish colour, I already have Nehru and I am going to get contrast, but with Nehru I find that it comes out black/navy not just navy, any thoughts? x

MAria said...[Reply]

Hi! Love your work! A tip for the labels on the back of the palettes, that you say get dirty: cover them with blank tape and you'll be set. -Maria-

Betty on March 22, 2009 12:58 PM said...[Reply]

hi tiffany!
im an nc20 and im trying to find a wash color that i can blend with darker colors to my browbone because i dont use highlight and im not sure what would be a good one
i was thinking either bisque or brule
but they look very identical (i dont want anything too shimmery)
so what do u suggest? :) thanks!

neko on April 1, 2009 12:15 PM said...[Reply]

Antoinette on August 24, 2009 10:59 PM said...[Reply]

hey tiffany,
so this is your own personal stash, right? if you were putting together a starter kit for someone just starting out what would you include?

Hey Tiff !
I'm a girl from Denmark, and i had watched all you're vids, and i just loooove all you're shadows! :) - I had some sent from USA

- will you make a look there is good for blue eyes? :) preferably with light, brown, coral, blue, or black/grey/white colours. -for day and night :D it could be fantastic if you did that! because that would be a big help :)

More helpful than the MAC website!

Thank you, you've helped me decide which shadows to buy for my palette.

Hi Tiffany! (dec.19.2009)
You said you had done changes to your pallettes. Would you redo this post on occasion? It would be very much appreciated! Thank you! :)

You have 136 eye shadows!!!

cristina on January 10, 2010 11:52 AM said...[Reply]

Hi there, I actually tried to go to Mac and build 1 palette with blues and purples from your collection but unfortanately most of the colors you have are discontinued. I was wondering if you were going to add an update?

Thanks,
Cristina :)

Larisa on March 15, 2010 7:59 PM said...[Reply]

Hi Tiffany,
Love your blog and your channel (i'm a subscriber). when you get some time would you please do another updated post on your palettes. I can see all the hard work you put into this one, and know it has been appreciated by so many. And judging by your favorites videos every month i'm pretty sure you've bought more in the year since this was made. haha someones gotta stimulate the economy right?! lol
