Your Skin
- Begin by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt or excess oils.
- Apply a moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. Well-moisturized skin provides a smoother canvas for makeup application.
Apply Foundation and Concealer
- Use your regular foundation to even out your skin tone.
- Apply concealer to cover any blemishes, dark spots, or under-eye circles.
- Consider using a makeup primer if you have one. It helps makeup adhere better and last longer.
Choose Your Glitter Makeup
- Loose glitters are fine particles of glitter that you can apply using an adhesive.
- Glitter gels come pre-mixed with glitter and are easy to apply with a brush or fingertip.
- Glitter eyeshadows are pressed glitter products that offer convenience and precision.
Adhesive
- Glitter glue is Specifically designed to hold glitter particles in place.
- Eyelash glue Works well for small areas like the eyes or face.
- Some glitter products come with a mixing medium that helps adhere the glitter.
Eye Makeup
- Apply the adhesive to the areas where you want the glitter to stick. You can apply it all over the eyelid or in specific areas like the inner corners or the center of the lid.
- Use a small, flat brush or a fingertip to gently press the glitter onto the adhesive. You can also dampen the brush slightly to help pick up the glitter better.
Face Glitter
- Apply the adhesive to the desired areas on your face.
- Use a brush or fingertip to gently pat the glitter onto the adhesive.
Lips
- Apply your regular lipstick or lip gloss first.
- Dab a bit of the adhesive over your lips, then carefully pat the glitter onto the adhesive.
Fixing Spray (Optional)
- Consider using a makeup fixing spray to ensure your glitter makeup stays in place. This will also help prevent glitter fallout throughout the day or night.
Caution
- While applying glitter makeup, be extra cautious not to get it into your eyes, as it can cause irritation.
- Always use cosmetic-grade glitter that is safe for the face and skin.
Removal
- Use an oil-based makeup remover to break down the adhesive.
- Gently wipe away the glitter, avoiding vigorous rubbing, which can irritate your skin.
Remember, glitter makeup can be messy, so doing your eye makeup before applying foundation is a good idea. This way, you can clean up any fallout without ruining your base makeup. Experiment with different glitter colors and placement to create your desired dazzling look! Often.
