[clockwise from top left: shroom, satin taupe, carbon, brun]as of recently, mac finally started offering their eyeshadow pans to the public rather then just to pro artists. along with their pans comes their palettes, which come in 4 and 15 pan.
well before they started offering these to everyone, and when i was a mac fanatic, i depotted my own eyeshadows and put them into these quads i would order through macpro.
i also have a couple of 15 pan palettes (i had many but slimmed down my collection tremendously) which hold the eyeshadows i wear less often. but this is my tried and true favorite set of eyeshadows from mac.
this is really a smokey eye palette, but really this palette has become much more versatile than that. not only does it create my favorite smokey eye, but i also throw some brun on my eyebrows when i want to add a little extra to them, and i use carbon as an eyeliner when i want something softer than gel, pencil or liquid liner. shroom is great not just as a highlighter but as a simple wash of color for daytime.
these colors are amazing, even when i'm going through all sorts of stages of makeup love and switching things around in my makeup bag, these never leave. if i had to have only 4 eyeshadows in my makeup bag, these are it (although i'd be sad to never be able to use anything else) ;)
do any of you guys have a certain set of favorite eyeshadows you know you can always fall back on?

I was thinking about getting an empty MAC quad for my mac shadows, but I got an elf one instead haha. I was thinking about getting satin taupe. Would you recommend it to someone else?
melly - satin taupe is gorgeous, i think it would look great on almost anyone. definitely recommend.
