A shimmer eyeshadow is basically a neutral right? Like a faux leopard coat, or perfectly overlined lips, it delivers just a hint of an edge while turning heads. Want to kick your shimmer up a notch? Hear us out – wet-looking eyeshadow. This high-shine look is almost fool-proof, so anyone from a teen on TikTok to a seasoned MUA can master it with ease. And Morphe just dropped three eyeshadow palettes with an innovative Molten Metal formula that will usher you into your next favorite eye makeup vibe. Get to know the Rich & Foiled Collection. 

Eyeshadows that look wet are set to be the next thing, so grab all things silver, gold, and rose – and have fun. Here are three wet eyeshadow looks from our Head of Education, Ryane Michaels.

Gold Seeker

The gold eyeshadow palette that holds a wealth of possibilities. 

Step 1: Cover the lid with shade Crème de la Crème with a domed eyeshadow brush, starting at the inner corners. 

Step 2: Swipe shade Fancy That with the same brush, creating a “V” shape in the outer corner. 

Step 3: Press Fancy That with a pointed eyeshadow brush under your bottom lash line from the inner to outer corners. 

Step 4: Press shade Dark Money with a rounded eyeshadow brush closely to the top lash line, pulling it out to create a soft wing shape. 

Step 5: Sweep on Crème de la Crème with a pointed eyeshadow brush into the inner corners of the eye and under the brow bone for brightness. 

Step 6: Add Cents & Sensibility with a tapered eyeshadow brush, sweeping over the outer third of the crease to enhance the depth of the “V” for a doe-eye look, then press the same shade with the S500 brush on top of the outer third of the lash line. 

Step 7: Sweep shade Pretty Penny on top of the outer third of lid with a tapered eyeshadow brush for added sparkle and dimension. 

Step 8: Press shade Big Splendor into the inner corners and inner third of lid with the S500 brush. 

The Molten Metal Step: Each Morphe eyeshadow palette in Rich & Foiled has one Molten Metal shadow in the center – in this case, it is called Gold Seeker. While you can also wear this gorgeous wet eyeshadow formula dry, let’s amp it up. Spray a rounded eyeshadow packing brush with Continuous Setting Mist, and use the damp brush to press the shade into the center of the lid.

Going Platinum


This silver eyeshadow palette is the definition of money.

Step 1: Cover the lid with shade Jet Worth with a domed eyeshadow brush from lash to crease.

Step 2: Swipe shade Jet Worth with the same brush, creating a “V” shape in the outer corner.

Step 3: Press Tauperazzi with a pointed eyeshadow brush under your bottom lash line from the inner to outer corners.

Step 4: Sweep shade Invitation Only under the brow bone with a domed eyeshadow brush.

The Molten Metal Step: Dampen a domed eyeshadow brush with Continuous Setting Mist to sweep the shade Going Platinum onto the lid, then a pointed eyeshadow brush to press it onto the lower lash line.

Step 6: Use a domed eyeshadow brush and sweep shade Crowd Control onto the outer third of the eye.

Step 7: Use a flat eyeliner brush to stamp Crowd Control into the top lash line.

Rose to Fame


This rose gold eyeshadow palette will take your wealth to new heights.

Step 1: Cover the lid with shade On a Petal-still a domed eyeshadow brush.

Step 2: Use a tapered eyeshadow brush to apply shade Spoiler Alert into the crease and up to the orbital bone.

Step 3: Apply shade Brassy & Sassy all over the lid with a domed eyeshadow brush.

The Molten Metal Step: Dampen a pointed eyeshadow brush with Continuous Setting Mist to sweep the shade Rose to Fame into the inner corners of the eye.

Step 5: Use a flat definer brush to press shade Aristocratic Aura under the bottom lash line, and pull it out and into a cat eye shape.

Step 6: Use a tapered eyeshadow brush to add shade Nepo Beige-y under the brow bone.

Step 7: Trace shade Nepo Beige-y under the bottom lash shadow with a pointed pencil eyeshadow brush.

Pro Tip: To make your wet eyeshadow even more intense, Spray a little bit of Continuous Setting Mist in the lid of the bottle, use your brush to pick up a Molten Metal Shade of your choice, then swirl it into the lid. The result will be a paint-like texture perfect for metallic eyeliner looks.

Finish it Off


Now that your wet look eyeshadow is finished, a look is not complete without a bold brow and lashes. Choose from your shades of Supreme Brow Sculpting Wax and a few swipe of Make It Big Volumizing Mascara.
