Brown VS Pink: Battle of the Neutrals

I'm definitely a neutral eyeshadow girl, unless I'm going for something dramatic my eyes don't tend to stray far outside of my typical comfort zone. I own countless neutral palettes yet having recently tried a vaguely pink eyeshadow from Urban Decay's Naked on the Run set and having also tried the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Pink Gold I can't help but think I've been missing out on a whole world of neutral that I'd never even considered.

Maybelline Color Tattoo (Pink Gold)
Brown, bronze and beige eyeshadows are extremely popular and almost always look good - it's very hard to go wrong with these colours. But pink, in my opinion, actually looks even more subtle than brown whilst still looking special. It can look tacky, no doubt about it. It can also be completely gorgeous.

Obviously shade choice is key - anything too pink can be a bit much - but most of the pink shadows I've seen are amazing beyond belief. The Naked 3 palette (not something I own, sadly) contains some great shades, even if it isn't the most popular of the Nakeds.

So I think I'm going to be trying out various pink eyeshadows for a while. Might even purchase the Naked 3. Who knows?

What do you think about pink eyeshadow? Any shade recommendations? Let me know!
