If you've never heard of Silk Naturals, they offer a whole bunch of MAP dupes, ranging from eyeshadows to lipsticks, that are super close dupes! Their shadows come in a loose form but they can be pressed fairly easily. Another nice little cruelty-free palette to have is Wet'n'Wild's Walking on Eggshells; it has close matches to the popular Shroom, Cork, and Naked Lunch shadows. Finally, if you were a fan of MAC's shadows before the company started testing on animals and are looking for something of similar or better quality, I highly recommend Urban Decay's Naked palettes, especially Naked 2. Urban Decay's shadows are buttery-smooth, and way more affordable than MAC's if you're looking at the price of the individual shadows.

Thanks, good to know!
So nice to see so many products with the cruelty-free status! That’s great! I thought having a hard time buying good, cruelty-free make-up is the norm. Not anymore! Thanks!
I’ve never heard about Silk Naturals before, definitely will give them a try when buying eye shadows next time. Have you tried Makeup Geek? It’s also cruelty free company which offers a lot of MAC dupes.
Highly recommend Silk Naturals! They have Naked palette dupes as well (full palettes). Their shadows are loose but I might do a tutorial on how to press them! I’ll check out Makeup Geek! I was never sure about the quality but I keep hearing good things. 🙂
I LOVE Makeup Geek!
Between Makeup Geek, Karity, ColourPop, Anastasia Beverly Hills,and Morphe, I don’t miss MAC eyeshadows At. All.
I do wish it were easier to find single-pan empty compacts, though.
