OH Karen! I am so excited about this! I can't wait to see the pale buttery yellow you come up with!

I was wondering if you read my post or not!
I love the other suggestions like the pale matte pink, that would be pretty on the lid with a brown in the crease or with a soft purple! What about a medium purple and a light blue. I also would love to see a gray. Oh this is exciting I can't wait to see what you come up with!!! Thanks Karen for listening!

Oh, me too! One of my fav pinks, but yeah, only to go out at night. I would love a matte version of that one! I was also hoping for something that's a mix of dark brown and plum - I have some oooold color from BE (like from 10 years ago) that's great as a liner color but I barely have any left. If needed, I can scrape the bottom of the pan (I pressed it), and send it Karen's way.

Karen,
Please more mattes! Frosts and Glitters appear to outweigh the scales on mineral shadows in general. Mid to deep tones would be my preference, but light colors would be nice as well. Shades of pink, purples, and greens would be those matte shadows of which I have very few. I have many in the neutral shades, but I need a little zing to liven up the pallette.
I noticed on an arm swatch on the Moss page, a mid to deep tone of green, I believe the color name was Lichen. I was unable to find on the eyeshadow page. Perhaps it was once part of the line and discontinued, maybe a color before it's time. Take a look and see if you can bring it back for a while so that we newbies can add it to our collections.
I just found you this week and I am thrilled. I placed my first order today and I will be looking forward to more. I picked up the fiber optic brush for lighter blush application(I tend to have a heavy hand) and the must-have eyeshadow brush along with various eyebrow color samples and Chanel dupe, Mad Matter Collection. I will be checking your site often for new additions and offers.

I would love some bright mattes, I generally find mattes really boring (lol) but if they are bright (orange, yellow, a bright pink to pair with quiver, bright turquoise and acidy green etc.) I would totally go for them.
I am so not a neutral person, lol.

By the way, is there any chance of Cuddle returning? I found this recently and have really been using it a lot - it's the perfect grey/brown.

I would love to get Cuddle!

Definitely piqued my interest with the 'soft buttery yellow' description. Would love to see that! I'm more of a neutral gal so browns & taupes in matte are right up my alley. I will enjoy looking at brighter colors & live vicariously through others enjoyment of those.

Our soft buttery yellow is Buttercup...... and we have a brownish golden yellow, too, in Chamois.
