Grey Matte Eye Shadow

Grey Matte is a mid-toned gray matte, what a surprise.

This shadow is loose, comes in a nice clear jar with sifter. The shadow seems decently pigmented, albeit a bit short wearing if you don't use some sort of primer.

Eyeshadow Primer

This primer is certainly thick. It's thicker than BH Cosmetics' Eye & Lip Primer, but very similar in lots of ways. This one blends far easier than the BH one, and also doesn't have too much of a tint to it -- it's more clear than nude colored.
