Finishes include natural/matte, semi-matte, shimmer, and sheer glitter. Textures appear as pressed powders, pencil sticks (including jumbo pencils), and liquid formulas (including liquid-to-powder styles).
These products are used for shading, blending, defining the crease or lash line, and brightening the lid or inner corner. Some palettes include a primer base for longer wear, while pencils are often used as liners, for crease blending, inner-corner highlights, all-over lid color, or as a base under powder shadow.
Some options are labeled hypoallergenic and ophthalmologist-tested. Others are formulated without added parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, or fragrance and are noted as suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
Many listings describe highly or super-pigmented, blendable, and buildable formulas. A smaller number are sheer or designed as glitter toppers rather than full-coverage shades.
