I was going thru my collection of eyeshadows when it occurred to me that I have a ton of shimmers, glitters, frosted,etc. formulas but hardly a nice collection of matte shades. I realized that I don't even have a matte chocolate brown!!! I need to build up my matte collection...what shades do you suggest I should add? Looking for brown, dark blue, green, and purple. Thank you. :)

Go for Inglot shadows! Affordable, and their matte range is incredible!

If you want to get a good deal and really nice shades, pick up the Too Faced Matte palette. For $36 you get 9 really good quality shades that blend well and have great pigmentation. I reach for this all the time, despite having a pretty good MAC collection. I don't have Inglot so I can't vouch for those, but I definitely think this palette has colors to help with any color combo you'd like to create. I use these with other shades all the time. Makeup Alley has some really great reviews on it too - http://www.makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=146243/Matte-Eye/Too-Faced/Palettes

i know, it sucks that good neutral mattes are so rare. i need them for my le no make-up look. i swore to never buy higher-end eye shadow because there are good ones from the drugstore. but the only brown mattes that i like out there are Clinique's quad. it's so upsetting.

i'm saving up for this: http://www.beautylish.com/p/clinique-colour-surge-eye-shadow-quad :3

I have a lot of the MAC eye-shadow's in matte, but Bobbi Brown has some really good Matte shadows as well. And as some others have said Inglot as well. And I also have some Nars and Makeup Forever Mattes too.
