Common finishes include glitter and shimmer; many palettes also include matte and satin shades for blending and added dimension.
They’re usually used as sheer glitter toppers—worn alone for subtle sparkle or layered over other eyeshadows to increase shine and glitter intensity.
Descriptions commonly note a soft, smooth or velvety texture and micro-fine glitter flecks that provide a finer, buildable sparkle.
A rose-hued neutral palette typically includes matte, satin, shimmer and metallic finishes to create looks from soft everyday styles to smokier options.
Pressed glitter is sold as pressed powders in singles and multi-shade palettes. Listed net weights in product details include values such as 1 oz and 0.07 oz, and some palettes list per‑pan weights (for example, 0.05 oz each).
Listings often note ingredient and ethical claims such as phthalate-free, paraben-free, triclosan-free, hydroquinone-free and nonylphenol ethoxylate‑free; many also indicate vegan and cruelty‑free or similar sustainability certifications.
Product details commonly list suggested ages such as 12 years and up or 13 years and up, varying by item.
Palettes may include extras like a mirror and a double‑ended brush, while single pressed glitter items are typically sold in individual containers or pans.
