Can anyone recommend a range which does MATT eyeshadows ?

I am finding it really difficult to find a make-up range which includes genuinely matt eyeshadows. Even if they appear to be so, time and again I find most shadows contain specks of "glitter" (though not overtly glittery). Personally, I feel self-conscious wearing sparkly shadow in the day .... it's just not me. Plus, am "getting on" a bit and believe I am "supposed" to go for matt shadow as it's apparently less ageing.

Thanks.

Body Shop do some matt ones. I use one called Calico - which is a kind of flesh tone that you can use as an all over base and then put a bit of pearl or colour on your lower lid. I will be forced to protest very loudly if they ever discontinue it. I was upset enough when they stopped stocking it at Waterloo but noticed the other day they've started again.

Looks like MAC it is then - thanks everyone.

Have baulked a bit at the price but then again 10 quid for a shadow I'm actually going to wear is better than 20 times £5-ish for all the rubbish I've never used. Mind you, with that range, doubt I'll stop at one !

Does anyone know of any stockists in Herts or Cambs ? None, according to the MAC website but find it hard to believe there's nothing near me (given the proliferation of posh shops in Cambridge for example).
