You wouldn't know it to look at me - because to look at me I am L'il Miss Neutral - but despite my clothing colour palette of blue, white, grey, olive and shades of brown, I am a glitter junky. If it sparkles, if it shines, I'm transfixed. In fact, a day doesn't go past where something shimmery and glittery isn't on my eyelids - except no one can tell due to my lids being of the hooded variety. But I know the glitter's there, and boy does it make me happy. What made me even happier was reading that 2018 is the year of glitter! So if you've been hiding your light now's the time to shine!
An easy spot to reveal your inner magpie is your nails. Whether it be toenails or fingernails a dash of sparkly polish will pretty them up and catch the eye of other fellow magpies! We love the shade 'Comet' from Kester Black.
Want a disco ball on your lids? Get it with the Glitter Bomb Eyeshadow Palette from Two Faced. Not only does it have eight stunning shades, but you can change up or down your look by using the matte white and black shadows. It's a glitter lovers playground in a palette!
Sparkle up your kissers with a glitter-infused lippy, like Mecca Max's Glitter Pop. Glitter Pop comes in three stunning shades and is sure to make for one heck of an unforgettable statement lip.
More of a gloss girl? MAC Dazzleglass will pretty up your pout with a more subtle glittery irridescence. (And it's got that yummy vanilla scent. Am I the only person who swatches MAC lippies only to sniff their hand repeatedly until it's worn off?)
Glitter in a highlighter is not everyone's cup of tea, in fact by the sheer amount of articles I've read that list the best highlighters WITHOUT glitter it would seem it's not a favourite of the masses. BUT, if you love a good glittery highlight that'll ensure you're seen from space you can't go past Jane Iredale's 24-Karat Gold Dust Shimmer Powder in Champagne. I own it. I've only dared to wear it once. It's an intense as you can get, and if that's your thing, you'll love it.
Another offering from Mecca Max that will help you sparkle up your look is their loose glitter. Available in a variety of shades you can apply it over primer to your face or bod, or mix it with creams or glosses. Set it with setting spray and you're set to outshine the sun!
I was a tween in the 70s so I love glitter - not lips though, just nails and eyes!
