We Asked the Beauty Buddy Squad About Eyeshadow. Here's What They Said!

If there's one thing we know about the Beauty Buddy Squad, it's that they have opinions about their eyeshadow. So when we ran our latest community survey, we knew the results were going to be good. We asked, you answered and honestly? The findings are fascinating.

Whether you're a daily shadow wearer or a special-occasion glam queen, there's something in here for everyone. Let's get into it.

Eyeshadow Is Very Much a Daily Thing 👁️

Turns out, most of us are reaching for eyeshadow way more than you'd think. A massive 57% of the Beauty Buddy Squad uses eyeshadow most days, with another 24% wearing it a few times a week. That's a whole lot of blending going on.

Only 16% save it for special occasions and a tiny 1% say they don't use it at all. Safe to say, eyeshadow is not going anywhere.

The Palette Obsession Is Real 💛

Ask the Beauty Buddy Squad what format they love most and the answer is loud and clear. A whopping 76% prefer powder palettes over every other format out there. Shadow sticks came in second at just 11%, which tells you everything you need to know.

There's something so satisfying about cracking open a palette, right? The variety, the layout, the endless combinations. We get it completely.

Matte vs. Shimmer? Why Not Both! ✨

Here's where it gets fun. When it comes to finishes, the Beauty Buddy Squad isn't picking sides. Matte and shimmer are almost equally loved, at 64% and 63% respectively. That's basically a tie!

The takeaway? Versatility is everything. A palette that takes you from everyday matte to Saturday night shimmer? That's the dream.

Neutrals Are Running the Show 🤎

When it comes to shades, our community keeps it classic. 64% gravitate toward neutral brown and beige tones, which far outpaces everything else. Pink and rose shades came in second at just 14%.

Neutrals are endlessly wearable, flattering on every skin tone and honestly, they never go out of style. The Squad knows what works.

Performance Over Everything 💪

So what actually makes the Beauty Buddy Squad reach for one eyeshadow over another? It comes down to performance, full stop. Long-lasting wear is the number one purchase driver at 35%, followed closely by blendability and pigmentation, both tied at 29%.

Brand name? Just 2%. Price? Only 3%. If your eyeshadow performs, the community will find it regardless of the label.
