Is shimmer or non-shimmer eyeshadow better?

Whats the difference and what is most common?Is shimmer or non-shimmer eyeshadow better?
Shimmer eyeshadow is sparkly, and non-shimmer which is matte, doesn't sparkle. I think they are equally common/popular; personally I don't wear shimmer during the day because it's more of a nighttime look.Is shimmer or non-shimmer eyeshadow better?
shimmer shadows are basically the middle ground between sparkle/glitter eyeshadows and matte eyeshadows - their can either have small glitter particles that are very fine, or it can just give off a soft sheen/shimmer to the shadow when applied. Non-shimmer is basically matte shadow. Shimmer is more common in loose eyeshadows (so powder ones) and non-shimmer is most found in pressed shadows, although a lot of pressed shadows can be found with shimmer or some sheen to it.





I think both can be used in a great way, and both can look very beautiful - the key to using any shadows with shimmer is to not use something that is obnoxious in terms of glitter. The more glitter, the tackier you tend to look. Mattes will always look nice, and so if you prefer staying with something more natural, go with mattes or VERY subtle shimmer shadows. If you want to sparkle things up once in a while, use both, and just see what you prefer.

Non-shimmer has no shimmer and shimmer is like a subtle hint of glitter - but less noticeable. And there really isn't a ';most common'; option. Most people use both. :) Shimmer makes your eyes really shiny and pretty and can be bought in neutral or bold colors.
it all depends on the person. typically shimmer looks nicer on a night look since the shimmer is more noticeable and shiny. A lot of older people tend to not use shimmer either it makes them look more older and washed out.
it really depends on where you will be wearing it. i suggest shimmer during the day for schoo/work and opaque for going out/at night
