I am sure every one of you wants to know all these types of Eyeshadow pigment and their finishes.β£

Be sure to save this post, ladies!π€©β£

πMatte β Usually has a high level of pigment with no shimmer, sheen or shine. This is perfect for reshaping and defining the eyes. Matte shadows work well on every age range especially mature skin as they wonβt attract attention to fine lines or create a crepe-like texture on the lids. Do be careful as matte shadows do sometimes tend to be chalky or patchy but will blend better and work great once an eye shadow base is applied.β£
πSatin β Has a soft sheen instead of an intense frosty effect. It is a medium between matte and frost and is great on all skin types. Persons with mature skin can use a little of this shadow on the eyes.β£
πMetallic β Shiny look that resembles actual metal like gold, silver, foil, copper and bronze. This works well on ebony or darker skin tones. Persons with mature skin or with fine lines and wrinkles should avoid this as it will settle into the lines.β£
πFrost β Iridescent with the most shine. It usually has reflective white or silver particles and can be layered on top of other shadows. This finish can accentuate fine lines and wrinkles.β£
πShimmer β Sheer coverage with a subtle shine and hint of sparkle.β£
πLustre β Similar to frost but contains finely milled glitter particles to give an intensely sparkly effect. Persons with mature skin should avoid this type.β£
πGlitter β This is usually pure glitter particles that may require a tacky base for adhering it to the eyes.β£
πMarbled β These consist of various colours marbled together in one pan. You can apply the colours individually or swirl your eye shadow brush through and apply to the lids. This creates a unique colour each time you apply.β£
