Heya, I'm just looking for an amazing quality, single eyeshadow to highlight my inner corners & browbone! MAC, Urban Decay, NYX, anything.. All suggestions are appreciated! :) I currently use multiple highlights out of different palettes, but am looking to buy a single to pop in my travel bag. Thanks!!! xx

Personally I like very "bam" "in your face" highlights. I switch between mattes and shimmers all the time but my favorite shimmer is NYX's Geisha. My favorite matte comes from the BH Cosmetics 88 Matte Palette, but that isn't what you are looking for... so. I hope this helped. :)

For every day I use Kat Von D's "Tequila" from her Beethoven palette. If I want something a little more out there I use Urban Decay "Uzi" or Sugarpill's loose eyeshadow pigment in "Lumi".

Oooh thanks ladies! :D I actually own Ricepaper but find I looove more intense highlights ;) It's like one of those makeup don'ts that I definitely do! I've heard lots about MAC's Nylon & the Sugarpill shadows are supposed to be incredible, definitely need to check those out.. :) xxx

yeah @Jacqueline.... Nylon has become my go to. There is one I own from Inglot that is even more severe than Nylon and I WISH I knew the number of it I'd so tell you. It is pretty amazing has a satin finish and it's this beautiful Ivory color that is really intense (as most inglot palates are). And that one is quickly becoming my favorite. But if you want intense color pay off I suggest checking out inglot and buying one of their separates. AMAZING colors!

I don't have a particular color but if I'm wearing cool colors on my lids I like a silver/white, but if it's warm colors I like a gold/pale pink. Also sometimes I just wear eyeliner/mascara and highlight shadow in a pearlescent white shade.

Raisa, I know there are only Inglot stores in Quebec here in Canada, but are there many in the U.S.? I'm down there frequently so will for sure try to find one!

I have plenty of favorites, I have a thing for highlights! As far as a matte highlight goes, I love Vanilla by MAC. If I'm looking for a natural, flesh toned shimmery highlight, I like to use Naked Lunch by MAC. And if I'm looking for a super shimmery brighter highlight, I love Aspen Summit by Sephora. Oh, and I love using Benefit's High Brow stick alone or as a base for a highlight.

I'm surprised no one suggested MAC retro speck, I love it and just rediscovered it myself. I also love UD Maui Wowie? I forget how it's spelled, but it's a really intense sandy gold with gold shimmer particles. Just watch out for fall out with UD shadows :/

UD Grind was my favorite, but I used up the entire pan in my wallpaper palette x.x
