Glitter Eyeshadow Palettes

You have a choice when it comes to the best eyeshadow glitter options. In most cases, you can pick an eyeshadow that already has glitter in it from the manufacturer. This is the easiest option, but you have to accept the intensity and color of the product you buy. For more control, you can use regular eyeshadow with a powder base, and then press your own face glitter into it and apply that to achieve just the look you're going for. 

Because glitter unlocks such a wide range of colors, textures and intensities, there's no single most-popular choice. Many people go with a liquid eyeshadow for easy application and long wear times, while a portable powder kit is usually the easiest for touch-ups on the go. Powder also has the advantage of letting you switch between sections to try out different color and glitter effect combinations. 

The best glitter eyeshadow palette for you depends on your skin tone and the effect you want to achieve. Subtle glitter effects can be created with a mauve or purple base, while gold and smoky glitter work nicely with a blond or honey complexion. Darker skin tones reward metallics and the bolder colors, such as neon, teal or pastel. 

As much fun as it can be to rock the glitter eyeshadow look, eventually the eyeshadow has to come off. This can be an issue if you don't want glitter molecules all over the bathroom. Because glitter particles don't dissolve like other makeup ingredients, just rinsing with water usually doesn't do it. Instead, use a makeup remover wipe, or you can try applying a micellar water makeup remover with a clean cotton pad. Finish with a good, all-over face wash and rinse before applying serum and moisturizer.
