We use only cosmetic grade glitters. The US FDA has not approved any type of glitter as a cosmetic color additive, even though most "cosmetic" glitter is made from ingredients that are currently approved for cosmetic use. This does not mean that glitter is unsafe, but be advised that use of glitter as cosmetics is at your own risk. Chunky glitter especially should be used with great discretion.

The short answer is no. Biodegradable glitter tends to perform poorly when used as cosmetics, with problems such as curling of the pieces and bleeding color. It is also four times the price of typical cosmetic glitter. Personally I would not purchase or sell a product that performs poorly for such a cost. Instead, we encourage removing your glitter as responsibly as possible. We recommend removing it using tape or a dry washcloth. It can be deposited into your trash, where it will have the least environmental impact. Avoid washing it down the drain. I'm always keeping my eyes open for more feasible biodegradable glitter alternatives, and I will continue to search for a more eco friendly product to offer.

Loose eyeshadow is so versatile! There are many ways to use it. You can apply it dry over a glitter primer, you can spray your brush with a setting spray (or dip in our Magic Mixer) and apply it wet, or you can mix with our Magic Mixer to create a fun colorful eyeliner!

Use one drop of the Mixer and a small amount of glitter, mix together with a brush and paint on as a liquid. We recommend using a setting spray after it dries to hold your design in place. It is not for use in the waterline. Avoid contact directly with the eyes. If it comes in contact with the eyes and irritation occurs, rinse with clean water or use artificial tears to soothe.

For your maximum enjoyment of our glitters, we recommend using either a mixing medium such as our Magic Mixer or a glitter glue such as Nyx glitter primer. With the Magic Mixer, the glitter can be painted on as a liquid. If you choose to use a glitter primer, we recommend using a finger or our Glitter Applicators to tap the glitter onto your primed skin. A good setting spray afterward is always a good idea to seal your design in place.

If you're purchasing as a gift for someone who is, absolutely! If you want to purchase for yourself, a more suitable choice would be one of our mystery bags which are also deeply discounted, but not specifically designed for the LGBTQ+ community.

Our pressed eyeshadows can be applied wet or dry with a flat brush or your finger. My favorite way to use the pressed eyeshadows is spraying a flat brush with setting spray, then using it to apply the shadow. Always use a primer and setting spray so your eyeshadow lasts all day.
