Where to find a matte grey eyeshadow palette

I just want to know if anyone can point me in the direction of a grey eyeshadow palette which only has matte shades in it.


This is the type of palette I'm after, also would like some ideas where I can buy the "idiot proof" blending brush he uses.


If when you click on the link and it takes you to a blank page, then the guy's name is beau nelson and it's his easy smokey eye tutorial.


Thanks.

    Bobbi Brown? I get my brushes from E.L.F. They are brilliant.

    The palette Beau is using in that video is a quad he's made himself using eyeshadow pans from Mac. There are lots of companies that allow you to design your own palette and this is probably going to be your best bet. Mac, Kiko, Inglot, Bobbi Brown to name a few. I know that Bourjois has a quint at the moment that's grey toned but I'm not sure that all the shadows in it are matte.

    As for the blending brush, crown brushes make a few that are similar in shape to the one he uses in the video. Sigma, cozette and Zoeva also make similar shaped brushes. Hope that helps!

    Thanks for the replies.


    Will check out all recommendations. Hopefully I'll find similar shades. It's hard to tell what shade/whether it's matte or shimmer when looking on a website. I don't live near any makeup counters where I could see the colours in the flesh.
