I have the taupe shades in Ion, Catalyst & Revolver but they all have golden sheen/shimmer. Is there a cooler toned taupe with a silver or even lavender sheen? I couldn't seem to find one on the site.

maybe mink (mac satin taupe) or lurid (mac moth brown)? mink looks bad on me, so it is most likely cool toned ;)

Check out Driftwood, it's one of my very favorite SN shadows :)
Edit to add
It's no where near as warm as the swatch shows imo. On me, it's a taupe leaning more gray than brown.

Second the recs for Lurid and Driftwood. They didn't work for me at all because I can't pull off silvery/gray tones, but that's exactly what you're looking for. Both these colors are cooler than Mink. Mink is great for me because it's not too cool and not too warm.

ditto on lurid- it looks terrible on my warm skin. Kind is lavendery. Soho is silvery. nudgenudge is like tarnished silver family. also look at heartthrob

Earth! It has blue highlights, and I love it on my cool toned skin. Also check out the Days of the Week colors- there are a lot of good work safe neutrals in there. Friday is one of my favorites.
