MAC Enchanted Eyes/Warm Eyeshadow Palette

MAC Enchanted Eyes/Warm Eyeshadow Palette ($39.50 for 0.15 oz.) includes six eyeshadows in the warm, neutral family. It's decent, and it seems to come together better in practice than it otherwise may appear in swatches, but you can find so many neutral palettes these days...
