MAC Eyeshadow Palettes: My Reds & Pinks — Limited Edition (2010)
MAC Eyeshadow Palettes: My Reds & Pinks — Limited Edition
Can you guess which shade is which? It’s not easy! You’ll find the answers behind the cut, under the second photo of the palette! 
I took close-ups, but I wasn’t satisfied with the majority of them, so I’ll have to do those at another time. Consider it on the to-do list but a not-so-urgent item… We’ll do oranges and golds next!
Some clues…
- All shades are limited edition (I have all permanent shades in separate palettes)
- 95% of my limited edition eyeshadows are from 2004-2010, with an emphasis on 2009-2010
- There may be duplicates of some limited edition shades (but they’ll be next to each other)
- Square-shaped shades are from holiday palettes
What’s inside the palette…
Top Row: Limo, ‘Til Daybreak, Hot Hot Hot, Free to Be (oops, a permanent slipped there!)
Middle Row: Living Pink, Maira’s Mood, Perky, Pink Papillon, Up-do
Bottom Row: Wintersky, Ego, Et Tu, Bouquet?, Liberty of London, Firespot

Nice collection! Is there a reason why you keep LEs separate from perm’s?
I’m looking forward to the gold and orange palette.
After blogging for awhile, I’ve found that using LE eyeshadows from 2 years ago pretty useless, when it comes to showing a look, so I avoid using them in looks — it’s easier for me to separate them out so I don’t accidentally use one, too. I try to use permanent shades and/or recently released limited edition shades — e.g. the latest collection. Basically, the idea being to only use colors/shades you can purchase.
That makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
Oh yay! I love seeing your pallettes
I couldn’t name almost any of them. I’m good at permanents, not so at limited edition ones.
Sooo… on another note… I FINALLY BOUGHT CHINA GLAZE RUBY PUMPS! I’ve been lemming it since I saw swatches on Temptalia and I’m over the moon about this polish. It’s so prettyyy *bling bling* Thanks a million, Christine!
I couldn’t even name them myself & own them, LOL.
YAY! I am so happy to hear you’re as in love with it as I am
It is amazing!!
What colleciotn was pink papillon from??
Madame B!
How do u get ur le e/s out of the original packaging? This is a huge pain!!!!
Not really — once you do it a few times, it’s pretty easy! It took me about an hour to depot 68 of them
I have just 4 of those
I had no idea the square-shaped eyeshadows fit in a regular palette! Maybe now I won’t be so hesitant to pick up a few holiday palettes from my CCO.
Yeah, if you “depan” them, you can squeeze ‘em in
I just don’t use anything that’s not in a palette, so depanning is the way to go for me!
Christine,
Do you think you can do a blog on how to depot your eyeshadows?
Here are some tutorials…

I loveee the Limo, nice collection!
Love it!!!!
Love your palette. I am actually considering buying a palette and getting the eyeshadow for $11 as opposed to $14.50. I don’t want to depan and risk breaking a shadow.
Since MAC opened a flagship store on 42nd Street in NYC I am really excited to just go and get crazy.
I don’t have many pinks..but I guessed the two that I have!! (Free to be and HotHOtHot..) I am excited for the gold and orange…I have more of those..
how do you depot the square ones?
I haven’t done it in several years–I think mine are from the 2005 palettes–I just popped the plastic pan out, then I used a lighter to melt the pans out.
I was wondering if your MAC store allows you to Back 2 MAC the eyeshadow singles with just the plastic outer part (and no metal pan.) That’s a WHOLE lot of Back 2 MAC you’d have.
They should, but unfortunately, Back 2 MAC is one of the worst implemented programs (in terms of what rules apply and are applied uniformly). I don’t do B2M very often, but I’ve been able to do that in the past.
Great collection! I didn’t know you could fit in the square ones also.
oooOooo…I want firespot!
christine! is firespot like amber lights?
Not really
Firespot is really orange, Amber Lights is more coppery.
dang. thanks a lot tho!
