As a follow up from last weeks post on glitter, here are our expert application tips:

1. Pour a small amount of glitter out rather than dipping your brush into the container. You’ll have better control over how much product you want

2. For a strong glitter eye apply a cream shadow or vaseline first for better adhesion

3. Apply glitter with a small flat eyeshadow brush or finger, and press onto the cream or vaseline

4. For an eyeliner look that doesn’t budge apply a thin line of surgical adhesive along the upper lash line (Try Duo Surgical Adhesive) pick up glitter with an angle brush and apply directly on top of the Duo.

5. For a more subtle approach apply fine particle glitter to the inner corners of the eye to brighten up a smoky eye

6. To make an all over body shimmer add two parts moisturizer to one part glitter

7. Sprinkle glitter on top of wet nail polish to create high shine nails

8. Use tape to clean up glitter that falls on the face where you don’t want it to
