powder: pressed or loose; matte, shimmer, frosty, iridescent; blend well

creme: matte and shimmer; great for a wash of color; mix with powder for intensity

liquid: shiny, metallic finish; hardest to use; doesn't blend easily

matte is best for creating natural look; best finish for midtone; contains higher level of color pigment; works well for reshaping/defining eyes

shimmer offers great, sheer coverage; subtle sheen and give hint of sparkle; won't collect in fine lines; ideal for mature skin; works for highlighting recessed areas of eyelids; dark shimmer shadows are great for adding drama without being as harsh as deep-tone mattes

frost gives much more opaque coverage and feature a white or silver sparkle; easily sinks in wrinkles

satin is in between matte and shimmer; shinier than matte, but not as shiny as shimmer; works well on all skin types
