What eyeshadow formula do you wish came in more shades/options?
I really love Pat McGrath’s eyeshadow formulas, and I’d love to see a wider variety of colors for sure.

Roen could do a little more. Frankly, though, I’m waiting for ND’s Retro palette, the full size, to launch. It’s a formula and style I love. If Buxom came out with a few more palettes or a wider array of singles, well– that’s gonna part me from some cash. That is a solidly wonderful, long-wearing, buttery blendable formula.
For sure it would be MAC’s Extra Dimension shadows. And I wish they’d bring back a few from that formula that were either LE or which they made permanent and then discontinued (do they NOT understand what PERMANENT means?). And don’t even get me started on the old Matte2 and Pro Longwear shadows….I would love for those to make a comeback. I also really like the formula of the Tarte singles and wish those came in more shades. Oh hell….I just wish ALL eyeshadow formulas came in more shades…I just love eyeshadow!
Mariella, a big YES to MAC bringing back their Matte², Extra Dimensions, plus , all those gorgeous shades that they axed a few years back. Especially the purples!
Clionadh Cosmetics doesn’t have a matte range right now, I hope they launch some soon.
Seconded. I want to see her release duos, trios, quads, etc of ONLY THE SPECIAL SHADES. I’m sick of the mattes included in palettes that are wrong for my skin tone. Or basic. I’d like to never pay a ridiculous price tag (*cough* PMG *cough* ND) for regular mattes again.
I love Pat Mcgrath eyshadows as well. I wish that her palettes contained more matte shadows though.
I wish that Natasha Denona had affordable priced Midi sized singles that one could build their own palette with, for one!
Another would be more multi-chromes from Sydney Grace. They obviously know how to make great ones (I fully intend on getting one or two of the three existing ones). So, I’d love to see several new ones, with a few lighter shades.
I agree.. I love the Pat McGrath eye shadows.. I thought the singles were to pricey however I feel like I use the Statuesque single every day as my go to transition color almost no matter what eye shadow look I am wearing. I wish she would give us a straight NUDE palette. I love neutrals and I would so love a palette of just cream to browns with some sparkly champagne and metallic brown/bronze special shades..
As I already have more eyeshadows than a girl could need for the rest of her life, I wish that bareMinerals would come back with their Ready formula that worked so well in the past.
As for PMG – yes, her shade range should be expanded into more quads etc – although the price is exhorbidant here in Aus ($105 for a quad), so I would not be getting any of those soon.
Yes, yes, yes on the bareMinerals Ready shadows. How great were they? There were one or two palettes/quads that weren’t available here and which I regret not being able to get my hands on. I also find Pat McGrath just too pricey. I’ve only got one of her palettes and the quality is nice but not nice enough to justify the outrageous prices (steep anywhere but for you in Aus and me in Canada, it is exorbitant, as you say). And I’ve had shadows from ABH that are every bit as good for a much less faint-inducing price.
I’d like to see more quads and six-pans from Pat McGrath, and singles in special shades.
PMG for me, just the same, and in more affordable prices of course… Love all of her eyeshadows!
