Shimmer Eyeshadow

Shimmer eyeshadow adds a touch of sparkle and shine to your eyes. Unlike a matte formula with a flat finish, this one is compiled with fine glowing particles that reflect light and create a radiant, multidimensional effect. It is available in various colors, shades, and textures, making it a versatile and buildable product for creating different makeup looks.

Brighten your eye makeup with the right cosmetics

Shimmer eyeshadow contains shiny particles, also known as glitter or sparkle, to give your eyes a luminous finish. This powder is often made from mica, a mineral with reflective properties, and they are added to the item formula to create a shiny effect when applied. 

These components give an illusion of depth and dimension on your eyelids, making your eyes appear larger and more prominent. That’s why this cosmetic is great for adding a touch of glamor to your look and can be used for special occasions or nighttime events. 

It can be easily blended with other formulas to create various effects. You can layer it over a dark color to create a smoky eye style. This texture is also ideal for creating a halo eye effect, where the glitter is placed in the center of the eyelid and blended outwards.

How to work with shimmer eyeshadow 

This product is a great addition to both casual and glamorous makeup. It’s pretty easy to work with, but those who just begin to explore different cosmetics may need recommendations for working with it. 

Pay attention to the type of shimmer eyeshadow you work with. It can be loose, powder, cream, or liquid. All of them have different effects and levels of coverage. Cream or loose pigments are ideal for party or nighttime looks, while powder and liquid ones are more subtle and work with everyday makeup. 

With only a few steps, you can make this texture look much better and help it last for more time:

• Use a concealer or high-coverage foundation to even out the skin color and hide imperfections like visible veins or pigmentation on your eyelids. 
• Apply a layer of primer to prepare them for shimmer eyeshadow. As a rule, it has a “gluey” texture, and the glowing particles stick to it and stay in place with barely any falloff. It also helps the color pop out.
• Use a damp brush for application. You can spray it with a fixing spray or dampen it with water. It helps put more particles and apply them in a dense layer. Besides, you prevent falloff while working with powder or unpressed pigments. 
• A thin layer goes first. This step will help you find out the level of pigmentation and see how much product you need to achieve the desired coverage level.
