If you were using MAC’s Nanogold eyeshadow, what look would you create with it? What shadows would you use? What would you use on cheeks? Anything added to the lips?
Create a look using whatever you want, as long as you include Nanogold! Feel free to share links to photos of your look(s) using it in the comments.









possibly some velvet moss shadow outer crease. definately peachy cheeks: margin blush or style blush and nude or clear gloss.
That’s a pick I didn’t see coming, but sounds great, Emily!
Paradisco! Quarry for a more subdued look, or the Neutral Pink seems like a natural choice. Patina. Of course.
Nice choices, Erin!
Just so happened I planned to wear Nanogold for tmr. Haha, I’ll be wearing it with Neutral Pink maybe with a hint of Azalea blush in the outer crease for a splash of color. Paired with Foolish Me blush for a flushed look and my fav lip combo of the week: 3N lipstick with Moonbathe l/g.
Hey Fie!
That’s so coincidental
Sounds like it’s going to be a good combo!
Love this shade and wear it everyday, often with well-blended Remotely Gray. Nothing on the cheeks and a strong lip, usually Cruella (Matte Velvet lip pencil) or Sayonara (Lip Gloss Stain) by NARS.
Hey Sarah! I’m glad that you’ve gotten so much wear out of it
Girl Friendly as a base and Nanogold all over the lid. Mink Pink in the outer corner and half the crease. Mascara and black eyeliner.
Pink Swoon on the cheeks
Profusion on the lips
Love that combo, Tekoa! Very nice!!
Nanogold is one of my select HG eyeshadows. I wish I would have bought 2! I wear it ALL the time because it is so versatile…and it tones down deeper or brighter shadows too so I can wear them for day. I’m actually wearing it today:
Perky all over lid and brow
Nanogold all over lid and brow
Parrot all over lid and crease
Deep Truth in outer corner and blended in toward inner corner
Mystery Kohl Power on waterline
Cover Girl LashBlast mascara
NARS Mustique on cheeks
3N lipstick + Viva Glam VI SE on lips
Oh, wow!! It’s great to hear from people who love it so much
I need to go back and dig it out to play again.
Love that look, Shefali!
I read that combo and I was like “What? Perky, Nanogold and Parrot? Those cannot possibly go together.” Being the adventurous sort that I am, I then proceeded to try it. Its funky! On me my lids are blue with a pink shimmer base. Thanks for the creative look.
Hi Tekoa – Thanks! That’s so cool that you tried…I loved it when I had it on and I definitely got that blue with a pink shimmer base too.
Aww!! Hopefully MAC will release a dupe in the future
Oh no! Nanogold is sold out! I would go with thier suggestions and also use modest tone and dark edge on my eyes. I would wear not so innocent fafi lipstick on my lips. I would also go for the fafi blush in hipness.
Awww
I appreciate your suggestion though! Sounds like a pretty smoky look!
I like nanogold very much, but I´m afraid I don´t have a lot of very adventurous combinations to share.
I mostly use it with mothbrown, clue, charred or remotely grey.
neutral pink on cheeks
frou and sugarrimmed dazzleglass on lips
I think that’s still a really pretty, classic look, Nell!
Here’s my most recent fave look:
Girl Friendly as base
Neutral Pink all over lid
Dark Edge in crease (and over liner)
Nanogold on brow
Photogravure as liner
Pro Longlash in black
Blushbaby
Accentuate and Sculpt
Faux l/s + Viva Glam VI SE
Subline Culture l/l
Ohh, love it, Jennifer! Very nice
Soft Ochre from lash to brow
Rubenesque from lash to crease
Modest tone from crease to brow
Nanogold on inner corner and under brow
Mythology or All That Glitters on Lid
Dip Down or Wave Line liner
I like it with Fafi Strawbaby, 4N or Hug Me lipsticks
Nas Orgasm blush
Thanks for sharing that gorgeous combo with us, Amy!
I just love Nanogold and will be sad when I run out. One of my favorites is wearing it over Artifact paint pot with a touch of black tied blended into the corner and outer crease. It creates a great dark, shimmery pink.
Aww, Chrissy! It seems like a LOT of people love this color, so hopefully there will be a dupe sometime soon!
I’ve been using it most recently over my Layin Low (Fafi) Paintpot for a really neutral eye (I’m nw15 so its a hint of makeup but nearly nothing). <3!
Oh, interesting color combo! I wouldn’t have thought to layer those two together!
i have rite of spring (which is really similar to nanogold) so i’ve held off buying it. but reading all your ideas, i feel a need to go out an grab a tub!
in terms of blendability, is nangold better? rite of spring is a little chalky at times.
but i digress ….
i like using (rite of spring) over the whole lid.
beautiful iris layered over entirely.
parfait amour at the crease with rice paper to highlight.
prussian powerpoint to line
rite of spring on lower lash line.
craving lipstick and
totally it lipglass for effect
Very nice look, Natasha! I think Nanogold is easier to blend than Rite of Spring, IMO!
They’re similiar, but Nanogold has more peach in it.
woohoo! finally N collection is in my country! I just bought nanogold today. i’m so glad you have this post, Christine. I could try out all things suggested here.
OMG, wow! That is SO delayed. I’m glad you got Nanogold, though!
chris I saw this amazing look on youtube w nano gold. Do you no a shadow that resembles it?
You could try Motif, Jessica!
i’ve used nanogold as base & then Trax or Satin Taupe in the crease. sometimes i just wear it alone with blacktrack eyeliner.
I really love it with Nocturnelle!
