Best Matte shadows I have found
Urban Decay makes 3 different types of Eyeshadows. 1 is a metallic ( heavy on the glitter).1 is a shimmer (not as heavy but still too much for me)The last color is mattes. These eyeshadows from Urban Decay are highly pigmented which means a litte will go along way..I use foxy which is a matte Ivory and secret service which is a warm brown . These colors are true on your eyes and they will not dissapear like some mattes will.The ivory is a sheer matte color but if you add more, it will be more visible.This color is really good if all you want is a little bit of color and another plus, I use it to conceal slight blemishes and I use it to cover the dark area between the rim of the nose and the eyes. The brown ( secret service is my favorite to use in the crease and as a smoky color. It really has staying power even after hours of wear.
I love these eyeshadows . I am 45 and do not really get into glitters and shimmers anymore( except my new love 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil by Urban Decay) I use these pencils as a liner and they are beautiful.
Ladies , regardless of your age , if you love mattes or you just want a natural look, try Urban Decays Matte Shadows. They really work.If you want to get a better pic of them than what is on Amazon , go to Sephora. They have them listed and give you a description of what the color is..Hope you like them as much as I do..

Awesome stuff
I have been very impressed with Urban Decay products. This eyeshadow is no exception! A little truly goes a long way. I love the wide variety of colors, and the packaging is pretty neat-o. It blends pretty well too. I love love love it! :) (and no animal testing! yay!)

I love Urban Decay's quality
I typically won't spend more than the 5 or 6 dollars for a Maybelline. I love my make-up, but I don't see the point in spending more than a few dollars for it. That said, I bought four Urban Decay eyeshadows last year and have not regretted a single cent. I think I wouldn't go for anything more expensive, but these were worth each penny.

The colors are bold and vibrant and they don't fade for awhile, and still look very well when they do. They will eventually crease, but only upon close inspection can you tell. It never looks bad. A reviewer complained that it fell onto her face; that can be a problem, and if you use foundation, wiping it off isn't really an option unless you want to redo your whole face, SO: I suggest using your fingertip to apply (that's the best way to use it) without taking TOO much, otherwise it will still crumble. Just swipe it a couple of times instead of once if you don't like the shade; the color will intensify. It's velvety and coats over itself neatly. Some of my other eyeshadows dust or crumble when I do this. As long as you don't swipe up enough to see pieces, Urban Decay won't.

These are excellent eyeshadows and come in such a wide, attractive variety that Urban Decay wins as my favorite every time. I believe they are definitely worth what you pay for.

And as end note, because I so appreciate them from other reviewers, a run-down of some of the colors I own:

Polyester Bride: A shimmery absolute white, not creamy, with some glitter.
Cherry: a very pretty pink, but it looks more like a pinkish white once on. It's also got some glitter, but less than Polyester Bride.
Vert: A bright green shimmer that has a more of a sheen than a glitter to it. One of the best green eyeshadows I've found. Very bold.
Green Goddess: Same quality shimmer as Vert. It's almost like a green-silver, a bit earthy, I suppose very goddess-like. :) If you compare with Vert, it looks lighter, but it's just as bold. Much darker than the site shows, in person and applied.
