Yes, eyeshadow expires after a determined time. To find out about your products specifically, check the packaging for the icon that indicates how long a product is good for after opening. The expiration period is usually 24 months for eyeshadow.

Eyeshadow can come in many different shapes and forms—the most basic being powder eyeshadow. You can get this from our Eyeshadow Singles and Eyeshadow Palettes. For more flexibility and more options to create a variety of eye looks there are also cream, gel, and liquid eyeshadows. You can actually use our All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray to turn any of our powder eyeshadows into a liquid shadow or liner—it’s like magic. You can also mix some 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil or any of our Eyeshadows with Eyeshadow Primer Potion to create a cream eyeshadow or liner.

The recipe for eyeshadows primarily consists of color pigments, but it totally varies based on the formula. Check the ingredients on the back of your product to learn more.

There are no rules—see what colors you’re drawn to and go for it! Our 12-shade Naked Palettes give you a lot of options for versatile looks. Learn more about our Eyeshadow Palettes and how you can mix and match different tones to create your desired look.
