I have a few brown or taupe shadows but the browns are a bit dark and the taupes have shimmer. Looking for a lighter brown color(matte) Thinking about MAC Wedge, Omega or Soba.
MAC shadows last forevery so worth the money (if the color is right).
NYX has some nice shadows. Anyone tried Tryst?
any other DS suggestions?
 
I would recommend IT Cosmetics eye shadow palette in pretty in nudes which are warm color eyeshadows. I love their eye shadow because it doesn't crease, or come off and it's natural looking.
QVC has them on 6 easy pay with free shipping. I ordered one more yesterday.

Hi! I understand the quest for the perfect brown eyeshadows!!
wedge- I don't have this one but have cork, which is similar. Cork is a neutral medium brown and I think a tad darker than wedge.
soba- does have some shimmer in it, but doesn't really show up once applied. Definitely not a true matte. It's a camel color (with yellow undertones, imo) and probably my favorite mac brown shade.
omega- great cool-toned light brown
kid- warm-toned light brown, leans peachy. This one has a super smooth texture.

HTH! Good luck!

I'll have to go the mac counter.....I've purchased soba but it was many years ago so I don't really remember it. Kid probably not for me; anytime I've worn peachy colors on my eyes I felt like it made my eyes look red.

omega might be the one
 
Another vote for Mac Satin Taupe as a daily shadow. I'm around NC25 in foundation and in my opinion Satin Taupe grossly outperforms Soba as a daily, all-over-lid eyeshadow. As other commenters have said, Soba isn't a true matte (neither is Satin Taupe though). I think Soba might show up better on really fair-skinned people, like those who are #21 on Korean BB cushions.
