Sheer eyeshadow with glitter

Glitter eyeshadow for all occasions

It is impossible to imagine them in makeup in the summer, but in winter no girl can do without shimmering eye shadow. ELLE has prepared detailed instructions on which shadows from the new collections you should choose to give your eyes the right shine.

Chanel

Chanel's Illusion D'Ombre eyeshadow with shimmering particles envelops the eye in a soft, pearlescent veil, giving it delicate expressiveness. If you slightly increase the intensity of the color by applying shadows in several layers, the effect will be more provocative and daring.

Shise >

Already at the first glance at the Sparkling Party Palette from Shiseido from the Christmas collection, it becomes clear that under its lid are hidden beauty products that are brilliant in every sense of the word. Gold, beige, blue, brown eyeshadow with pearlescent glitter will highlight the color of any girl’s eyes. Shine always and everywhere!

Givenchy

Another brilliant representative of the Christmas collection was the black cream eyeshadow Ombre Couture from Givenchy. They can be used both as shadows and as eyeliner. An ideal option for girls who love universal products.

Make Up For Ever

The Make Up For Ever brand is known for its rich palette of eye shadows, so we couldn’t do without them in this review. Among the huge number of shadows, I would like to highlight the Artist Shadow line with a shimmering pigment in its composition. They need to be applied over a makeup base so that they last all evening. Such shadows will look appropriate in both daytime and evening makeup.

Max Factor

Highly pigmented eye shadow Wild shadow pots from Max Factor lie very smoothly and softly on the eyelids, can be mixed with each other, and for color intensity it is recommended to apply them with a damp brush. Among the 16 shades, it is very difficult to choose just one, so we recommend that you do not limit yourself, but buy several at once in order to experiment and experiment without stopping.

Maybelline NY

The American brand Maybelline NY does not lag behind its colleagues in the beauty industry and produces a huge number of collections of shadows with shiny textures. One of these was the Diamond Glow line. As the name suggests, these shadows will enhance your look with the shimmer of every facet of a diamond.

Vivienne Sabo

The shimmering effect on the eyes from Vivienne Sabo's Rue de Rivoli eye shadow from the Christmas collection is achieved due to the silver particles contained in the shadows. These shadows are ideal for both simple daytime makeup and evening looks.

Catrice

Catrice's Feathered Fall eyeshadow promises to create a wide-eyed look with a shimmery effect. Their advantage is the 3D texture, which will give the look depth and expressiveness.

essence

The metallic shine of essence shadows will help create a three-dimensional effect on the eyes - your makeup will look brighter and richer. The main thing is to decide on the shade, and this brand has a huge number of them.

Wet n Wind's sheer glitter eyeshadows have a gel texture and are easy to layer to create coverage and intensity. The gel contains aloe extract and coconut oil. Shadows can be applied to the entire body.

Glitter eyeshadow is a widely used cosmetic product. They create a pleasant shimmer that can sparkle brightly for a long time. Girls should be able to correctly determine which eyeshadow with a wet eyelid effect is best suited.

There are many different options for glittery eye makeup.

Types of shadows

The largest category of shadows is compact. They are based on dry compressed powder, which is placed in a convenient, practical package. There can be either single-color shadows or palettes of different colors. They combine successfully with each other. It is convenient to apply such cosmetics with an applicator, which is often included, as well as with a brush or fingers. The cosmetics in question have a long shelf life. When using it, a number of features are taken into account:

1. do not put a lot of shadows on the brush at one time so that they do not fall off;
2. when learning how to apply makeup, use an applicator;
3. cosmetics must be applied to a primer so that they do not roll off and remain stable;
4. use the wet application method to make the color more saturated and bright;
5. As an eyeliner, use an angled moistened brush.

Loose shadows were initially used only in professional makeup, but gradually moved into the category of everyday cosmetics. Due to the light powdery structure, the products are easily mixed, thereby creating new color options with reduced cosmetic consumption.

If such cosmetics are applied correctly, the effect of smooth color transitions will be created. A specific feature of these shadows is their high tendency to crumble, which is why they should be applied exclusively with primers.

Important! The skin under the eyes should first be covered with patches or pieces of paper.

Liquid shadows have appeared on the cosmetic market recently, but have already become popular among girls. This is the most durable type of this type of cosmetics, which contains the following ingredients:

1. water;
2. nutritional elements;
3. glycerol;
4. vitamins, etc.

Such shadows have a positive effect on the condition of the eyelid skin, providing it with nutrition and hydration. They do not crumble or fade, as a result of which good makeup remains intact throughout the day. They can be used by girls with both normal and dry skin. However, it is better not to use such shadows on oily skin, as they will accumulate in the folds of the eyelid and look unpleasant.

Liquid shadows dry out quickly on the eyelids, so you need to apply and blend them as quickly as possible. Any shade can be suitable for daytime or evening makeup, depending on how thick the application is. It is preferable to use a base before applying wet eyeshadow.

Additional Information. When applying, a flat brush equipped with synthetic bristles will be used.

There are many types of glitter eyeshadow in the cosmetic market

Most glitter eye shadows can be purchased at beauty supply stores. There is a large selection of products with different names to suit every budget and taste.

Shimmery eyeshadow with glitter

Shadows with a shimmer effect differ from each other in the volume of shimmer, texture and application methods. Most often, shiny pearl shades with light shimmer are used. They effectively highlight the eyes, add expressiveness and sparkle to the look, remove imperfections and direct attention to makeup. At the end of the procedure, gloss is added by treating the eyelid with balm or eyelid varnish.

The evening look of the face can be decorated with wet glitter for the eyes. It is based on shadows of dark tones with a metallic effect. If possible, the shimmer should be as finely chopped as possible.

The eyelids are prepared using an eyeshadow base. After this, blue, burgundy, black or green shadows with shimmer are applied to them. A cosmetic product is applied on top of the shadows, creating a glossy shine. In this case, it is allowed to combine gloss, balm or lip varnish.

Shimmering shadows with added glitter can be used not only as a stand-alone product, but also as an eyeliner or as an addition to basic makeup. The glitter lasts a long time without falling off due to the action of shadows and glitters.

The main colors of shimmering glitter are:

Wet effect eyeshadow

The use of this cosmetics depends on what image is being created: day or night. In the first case, they usually make do with cosmetics for a glossy effect. The use of colorless light shadows is also common.

A primer is applied to the eyelids, and a layer of nude shadows is placed on top of it. It is used both with matte cosmetics and with shimmers. The second option is more suitable for those girls who want to more expressively emphasize the effect of wet shadows.

Features of applying shiny shadows

First you need to cleanse your face with tonic or any other suitable cosmetic product. The face is covered with moisturizing cosmetics and left until completely absorbed into the skin. If there are bags or bruises under the eyes, they are hidden with the help of a corrector.

Both eyelids need to be completely covered with foundation, then thoroughly shaded. First, apply a small amount of powder, since the shadows apply best to this product. In order to avoid the formation of brightly highlighted stripes, shading is used. After it, the glitter will look more natural.

Using a pencil or eyeliner, draw arrows. The line can be drawn along both the lower and upper eyelids. Rhinestones are applied using a moistened applicator. If they have a crumbly structure, it is preferable to fix them with special eyelash glue. A small amount of glitter is applied to the eyelids in strips from the inner corner of the eye.

If the layer is too large, wipe the eyelids with a cotton swab. You should not opt ​​for a color palette that is too light as it can make the wrinkles under the eyes stand out more. The process ends with the application of mascara, which is applied in several layers to improve the effect.

Glitter looks most pleasant on tanned skin. For girls with fair skin, it is recommended to choose powder and foundation a couple of shades darker. Dry cosmetics should be secured with glue for additional hold. When using it, it is better to close your eyes and not blink.

Note! If a gel or cream is applied to the base, the cosmetics will last for a long time.
