Skeletal (or striated) muscle
Skeletal muscle which has microscopic alternating bands of light and dark called striations. Therefore it is striated, voluntary muscle.
The main muscle that allows you to blink is the orbicularis oculi. The other muscle that also assists with this movement is the levator palpebrae superioris muscle.
By tensing.

the movement of the muscle is larger in some lifts then others, but mostly its about the moment.

ATP is essential for muscle contraction as it provides the energy needed for the process. When a muscle contracts, ATP is broken down into ADP and inorganic phosphate, releasing energy that powers the movement of muscle fibers. This energy allows the muscle to contract and relax, enabling movement.
Chemical energy creates ATP that allows muscle movement. Chemical energy is released in an chemical reaction that often causes heat.
The nervous system transmits electrical signals from the brain to the muscle structures throughout the body, this allows the relaxation and contraction of certain muscles depending on the desired type of movement.
The major function of a muscle is to contract and generate force, which allows for movement, stability, and posture in the body. This contraction occurs when muscle fibers shorten and produce tension.
Muscle tissue has cells that shorten to exert force. This shortening of muscle cells is what allows for movement and physical activity.
