K-beauty brand [Kaja](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaja-beauty-bento) recently added to its innovative collection of makeup products with the all-new Moon Crystal Sparkling Eye Pigment, which is packaged in a tube due to its unique formula. The product initially has a jelly formula that can be squeezed from the tube and worked onto the eyelids with a finger. In a moment, the virtually weightless eye pigment dries to a powder for long-lasting staying power and plenty of shimmer.

The Moon Crystal Sparkling Eye Pigment by Kaja is available in several sparkling varieties that are packed with metallic-coated, light-reflecting glitter pearls. The innovative gel-to-powder eye product is offered in shades that range from Luminary and [Dark Matter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/play-in-color) to high-impact crystal-inspired colors like [Tiger's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cacti-wellness-gua-sha) Eye and Rose Quartz.
