Shimmery and glittery eyeshadows can be challenging to work with but understanding more about the ingredients and how shadows are made, can help you to get the best performance from the shimmery shadows in your kit. In this post I am doing a deep dive into shadow formulation which will help you get the results you want when working with your shimmery shadows (no more messy shimmery shadow applications!!).

Here is what is covered in this video:

  • Shimmer Vs. Glitter, what's the difference?
  • The science behind eyeshadow formulations, what you need to know. 
  • Choosing the right formulations for your kit.
  • Understanding the factors that impact eyeshadow performance.
  • Troubleshooting shimmery and glittery shadows.
  • Tips for working with shimmery and glittery shadows: what to watch out for.

My favourite shimmery shadows to work with are the Stila Shimmer and Glow Liquid Eyeshadows as well as the MAC Extra Dimension eyeshadows and Dazzle Shadows (more glittery). Viseart also makes some of the best shimmery and metallic shadows out there!
