You seriously don't need all of these colours, as they are all similar as natural crease colours or as colours to blend out bold creases, just try to pick a colour and degree of darkness which compliments your skin tone and looks natural on you. I hope this has been helpful for some of you. Kid, which a MAC salesperson talked me into buying (and I don't need it), is described by them as a beige cashmere (veluxe). This colour does not show up on everyone so be warned. It does show up on me and if used properly, does a wonderful classic 40's eye. MAC used this as a crease colour for the Dita Von Teese look they did years ago. MAC describes it as a soft pinkish beige (matte). The swatch on the farthest left is Malt as you can see. Just for the sake of argument, I took the liberty of also swatching MAC's Malt and Kid for all of you as they are considered similar colours and some of you might be interested in the difference. Cork is best for you ladies who have warm undertones.

When I wear Cork I do see a yellow undertone and it is not as flattering on me as it could be. Cork is described by MAC as a muted golden brown (satin). Wedge is a bit pinky/purple in its undertones. MAC describes Wedge as a soft muted beige taupe (matte). Personally, for my colouring, I prefer Wedge. Figuring out which one is better for you is the slightly tricky part. I would say that depending on your colouring, you should pick the one that is more suited to you and not bother with the other one. This duo, although they look similar, are different. I see their point, but it's not as simple as rolling the dice and picking one. A lot of online bloggers will tell you that you don't need both just get one or the other.

Ever since I started to get into MAC eyeshadows big time, I was plagued with the ongoing debate - Wedge or Cork? So I bought both.
