TINTYKIT’s LIVING GLITTER is cosmetic grade – which means it is safe for use around your eyes, as well as on your skin, your hair, and your nails. Here are the best ways to apply it for each area.
- Eyes: If you are using biodegradable glitter as eyeshadow, use a glitter primer to get the best wear. This will create a tackiness that our biodegradable glitter adheres to. If you don’t have glitter primer to hand, a small amount of eyelash glue will do the job.
- Skin: If you are applying biodegradable glitter to your skin, the best adhesives are glitter primer or aloe vera gel. Apply a thin layer and let it dry down (not completely!) a bit and apply the glitter while it is still sticky. This will mean minimal fallout. You can layer the sparkles as you wish.
- Hair: There’s nothing cuter than a sparkly hair look. There are a few ways to achieve this. The first is to create your hairstyle and then spray it with a good coat of hairspray. While the hairspray is still wet, brush the glitter on with a large makeup brush and then layer the sparkle as needed. The other way is to mix the glitter in with some strong hold hair gel. Then apply as normal and enjoy the sparkles!
- Nails: Our biodegradable glitter is so fun to use for nail art. Simply mix in with your existing nail polish – or use as an embellishment by sprinkling over wet nail polish and let dry.
