Glitter Face Paint
Glitter face paint is a must for the face painter who is wanting
to add that special touch to that award winning face, there is
a pretty large selection of different glitter products on the
market.
For those new to face painting and glitter a Big No-No is to use normal craft glitter.
As award winning face painter,
Catriona Finlayson
says "As you know most mum's etc just go buy a big pot of the cheap sharp metallic craft glitter which isn't cosmetic grade and can scratch eyeballs, etc....."
Cosmetic grade glitter should ONLY be used. There are various different face and body painting glitter products on the market: Glitter dusts, glitter powders and glitter gels, plus liquid glitter. Also for the complete glitter effect there are also glitter hair sprays and even glitter lip sticks! Then there are the temporary glitter tattoos. For UV and night effects there is also the glow in the dark glitter gel.

Glitter Gel
As its name implies a gel based glitter. It is easily
applied using a brush. It is easily applied with any of the brushes
although a small brush normaly works better than a large brush. It
is useful for adding to face paint designs or can be used just on
it's own.

Glitter Powders (Iridescent)
These are fine glitter powders,
almost like a fine cornflour type powder. The powder is applied
to the slightly wet face paint, or even just straight onto the skin.
The iridescent shine of the glitter brings the face to life and is
well worth the effort in applying. This glitter powder can also be used
on its own or with a moist sponge or brush.

Glitter Dust
This glitter face paint, is a loose glitter, great for the face and the
body. To use it, sprinkle the glitter onto the paint whilst it is
still wet and the paint is already on the face. Or, to have a little
more control - use a slightly damp brush to add glitter to specific
parts of your face painting design like on the nose of a bunny
design, or around a batman design.
