3 glitter looks anyone can do

Glitter is a magical way to bring joy and sparkle to both everyday life and special occasions, and its use doesn't require professional skills! Glitter makeup is often considered challenging to apply, but in reality, it's a simple skill that anyone can learn. Whether it's a festival, a birthday, or a weekend party, glitter adds a special atmosphere to the moment and allows you to express yourself. In this article, we'll present three bold yet easy glitter styles that even beginners can master. With these tips, you'll embark on your journey into the wonderful world of glitter!

Why glitter makeup is easier than you think?

Glitter makeup often looks complicated, but in reality, it doesn't require special skills. It's more about having the right tools and basic techniques. The most common misconception is that glitter spreads everywhere and is impossible to control. With proper products and a few easy tricks, you can make glitter stay exactly where you want it.

For beginners, the most important tools are quality cosmetic glitter, an adhesive, and a couple of good brushes. Cosmetic-grade glitter is safe to use on the skin, unlike, for example, craft glitter. Vaseline, which most people have at home, or a special glitter glue for longer-lasting makeup, works excellently as an adhesive. If you want to try glitter yourself, you can find a wide selection of skin-friendly glitters and the necessary adhesive products in our online store.

1: Sparkling cheekbones – a simple way to add sparkle

The easiest way to start using glitter is to apply it to your cheekbones. This is an easy makeup for beginners, and the result is both eye-catching and subtle. Cheekbone glitter is perfect for festivals as well as a friend's birthday party!

Here's how to create sparkling cheekbones:

1. First, apply your regular makeup as a base, if desired. Glitter adheres better to clean skin.
2. Take a small amount of Vaseline or glitter primer on your fingertip or a brush.
3. Apply a thin layer of adhesive to your cheekbone, right where you would normally apply blush.
4. Dab cosmetic glitter over the adhesive with a small brush. Chunky glitters work exceptionally well here.
5. If glitter falls elsewhere on your face, easily remove it with a piece of tape.

Glitter applied to the cheekbones gives your skin a beautiful glow that accentuates as you move and when light hits your face. 

2: How to create striking glitter eye makeup?

Glitter eye makeup may sound challenging, but once you master the technique, it's surprisingly easy to achieve. Fine-grained glitters work particularly well for eye makeup, but larger chunky glitters also look stunning when used correctly.

Here's how to succeed with glitter eye makeup:

1. Prime your eyelids with an eyeshadow primer to help the glitter stay on better.
2. Apply a neutral eyeshadow to the entire movable lid and blend the edges.
3. Add a small amount of Vaseline or Glitternisti's glitter glue to the eyelid with a brush.
4. Dab fine-grained glitter over the adhesive. Glitternisti's fine-grained glitters are perfect for this purpose.
5. If desired, you can add more emphasis to the inner corner of the eye or the center of the lid with a small amount of chunky glitter.

3: Bold glitter lip makeup for festive occasions

Glitter lip makeup is an attention-grabbing effect, especially suitable for parties and evening events! This style requires a bit more precision, but it's still a completely beginner-level makeup with the right products.

Here's how to create stunning glitter lip makeup:

1. Start by exfoliating and moisturizing your lips to ensure a smooth surface.
2. Outline your lips with a lip liner for a precise base.
3. Apply lipstick or lip gloss as a base. A darker shade will add depth to the glitter.
4. Add a small amount of lip gloss, Vaseline, or special glitter glue to your lips.
5. Gently dab fine-grained glitter onto your lips with your fingertip or a small brush. 

Make glitter a part of your own style

With these three easy glitter styles, you can embark on your journey into the fascinating world of glitter. Start with your cheekbones, perhaps move on to bolder eye makeup, and finally try stunning glitter lip makeup. Remember, glitter is a tool for self-expression; there's no right or wrong way to use it!
