I love MAC shadows. They are not expensive and have a great selection of colors to choose from. I use Clinique touchbase with all my shadows. It intensifies the color and makes it stay longer and I don't have a problem with creases.

If you're looking for super dense color, NARS is great, but it takes a light touch to apply it, because the colors are so strong. I also like the TWO FACED shadows a lot!!

Just about any eyeshadow will have staying power if you used the UD primer.
Laura Mercier and Trish McEvoy are 2 of my faves.

There is also a company called hauteface.com
that one of my girlfriends saw on Oprah a couple years ago. Their eye shadows have excellent staying powder.

I love Jane Iredale...it NEVER creases and it lasts all day. It's a rich pigment that comes in a great variety of shades, and even duo and trio combos that make it easy to put together a smokey eye.

A big 2nd to Jane Iredale! Although they're powders, the consistency is almost creamy. They apply very smoothly and last all day without creasing. My favourite matte shades are all JI.

Everyday minerals is great and CHEAP. You can get 10 of their small-sized shadows for less than $20! Surprised

Chanel has always been my hands-down favorite for eyeshadow - always a sure bet. Lately, I have found some really nice neutrals from Lumiere MMU - very soft, neutral and no creasing - although I do use Urban Decay Primer first.

I love Chanel. The quads are more sheer in pigmentation (which I prefer and love) and the singles are more pigmented and smoother (superb quality, I just use the lighter shades).

A great low-end option is NYX. They have great pigment (which is why I don't use any of them, too much color for me!).

I think the primer is important. I use the Lumene primer under Everyday Minerals, Silk Naturals, and Dr. Hauschka, and they all stay on all day without creasing!

bibimbap, I tried the EDM eyeshadow and it seems like it's a little too sparkly and it doesn't last as long as I would like. Any suggestions to make it work better? So far I'm using Chamomile and Oasis shades.

MAC is good, but I still find that it doesn't last that long... Maybe it's just me.

MAC is just ok with me. The matte shades are just awful; they don't blend well at all.

Paula's Choice eye shadows are my new favorite.

I really like the mac paintpot in bare study as a primer. it really stays on the whole day.
Also, I really like the eyeshadows from the tarte pallette, even without any primer.
