Use the Right Glitter for the Right Project
Cosmetic & Nail Projects
Use products positioned for cosmetic or nail-related applications. Avoid applying craft glitter near eyes, lips, or sensitive skin unless the product is specifically suitable for that use.
Craft, Resin & Slime
Craft and resin projects may prioritize color, shape, and texture rather than cosmetic suitability. Test materials before using them in a large batch.
Children & Small Parts
Shaped glitter, chunky glitter, charms, and small decorative pieces can be choking hazards. Keep small parts away from young children and follow local packaging/safety expectations.
Important Safety Notes
- Do not ingest glitter or decorative craft materials.
- Keep glitter away from eyes unless the specific product is suitable for eye-area use.
- Store glitter sealed, dry, and away from heat, moisture, children, and pets.
- For body, lip gloss, nail, or cosmetic product making, confirm the exact intended use before purchasing.
- If a product causes irritation or unexpected reaction, stop use and seek appropriate professional advice.
