MAC eyeshadow comes in matte and neutral shades and can be ordered from Amazon. It's not cheap, but it's good quality. My favorite is Shroom, which is neutral, but not matte.

Thank you. I'll check it out. I was hoping for cheap, but my guess is that good quality is not going to come cheap.

Colourpop is good quality and inexpensive. You can find it at Target. Although, it's a combination of shimmers and mattes. Although, there are a lot more products on their website.

Colourpop's Stone Cold Fox gets good reviews on You Tube.

Alterego palettes are supposed to be good quality, but they have their own website.

You can get some of Elf and Wet and Wild eyeshadow on Amazon, and some of their palettes are good quality. Although, I can't remember which ones unfortunately.

It seems you can order Sydney Grace on Amazon, and their eyeshadow is good quality. Although, to order matte singles, you'd have to go to their website.

Awesome! I did think of that one, although I haven't tried it. I do love their Bite Size quads.

I read really good reviews about those!

The are a number of well-rated, affordable palettes on Amazon.

ELF:

(Actually though, I have Mad for Matte - Nude Mood, and I just tried them and realized they don't swatch/blend easily at all - I think I'm going to get rid of this one!)

L'Oreal:

Bestland (at least one all-matte option):

W7 Mighty Mattes:

I seem to always go back to Lancôme Hypnose eye palette in French nude. It only has one glittery color out of five. Not cheap and I think it used to be more like $40.00 but they sell it on Amazon. I have always purchased it at Ulta or Nordstrom. Tried others but this works best. It lasts a long time and the others were a waste of money.

Thank you! That is really pretty, but so expensive. I rarely wear makeup, but my son is getting married soon and I need all new stuff but don't want to spend a fortune for just one day (and it's a tiny wedding - basically an elopement with family).
