Hey all!
I’m on the hunt for the most perfect glitter to wear for my wedding next summer. Ideally it would be a clear or nude base, with maximum sparkle, either neutral or colorful.
So far, I’ve tried:
- Fenty Diamondbomb in ‘How Many Karats?!’
- Colourpop Jelly Much in ‘Field of Fairies’
- UD Moondust Shadow in ‘Space Cowboy’, ‘Cosmic’, & ‘Solstice’
- Lemonhead LA Spacepaste in ‘Houdini’
- R.E.M Beauty Liquid Shadow in ‘fembot’
They’re all beautiful, but I’m not 100% sold on any of them yet. My top option right now is Fenty, with Lemonhead a close second.
I have my eyes on Half Magic’s Glitterpuck and Lemonhead’s Spacepaste in ‘Adult Film’, but not sure if I’m willing to commit to purchasing either just yet.
If there’s anything I’m missing, please tell me your recs! TIA
I like Morphe Supernova and Cosmic (both match my skintone quite well so it’s a perfect subtle shimmer with a fan brush, and you can build the pigment in layers until it really pops.
Also Pixi’s highlight is another accessible option. The glitter flakes are a bit too big for me to love.
I also loved Becca’s liquid and powder highlight, but I think they’re discontinued. Does anyone know a dupe?
For an irridescent highlight: Pacifica has a greatliquid highlight that I really liked.
ColourPop’s Magnetic Moon shadow from the Stone Cold Fox palette is the shiniest, most user-friendly metallic silver eyeshadow I’ve ever seen. Just amazing. It’s more reflective metallic than glitter, per se. But it’s very shiny and cool.
ive used the fenty diamondbomb for half a decade now and its still going…probably my number one spot. the rare beauty one in enlighten is good too but needs to be blended more. it’s very blinding and “out there”. maybe try that one?
It’s not a product per se, but I do love to don on showgirl glitter lips!
Put on a thick layer of creamy lipstick; then, lick the tip of your finger, dab it into cosmetic-grade glitter (usually the same color as the lipstick) and pat a good layer of glitter onto your lips. It should be fully covered so that your lips feel matte. Put a clean finger into your mouth, make an “O” shape, and pull out to get excess glitter/lipstick off your teeth.
Et voila! Showgirl glitter lips!
Roen Mood 4 Ever quad. Bottom left glitter is the most perfect wedding glitter. It’s just right.
Check out Danessa Myricks, she has all kinds of beautiful highly pigmented sparkly products!
I found a brand I love on tiktok called Uniglitter. Clear base and soooo many pretty options from chunky glitter to shimmers. Look them up online and also tiktok if you want to see them swatch it in all lighting. I like to support small businesses and I buy a lot of their holiday glitters and stuff.
Urban Decay glitter liquid liner is bangin’. I have the pale gold color and it’s beautiful. I only bought the U.D. because Ulta was out of my normal product, which is NYX Glitter Goals, which has a similar color, packaging, and consistency and costs like $6 or something. The U.D. has maybe a little bit better staying power on its own, but with glitter primer the NYX doesn’t budge all night.
Can second the lemonhead space paste they’re amazinggg
Lemonhead is going out of business, so if there was anything you liked, I’d stock up!
It’s going out of business?
I can’t find evidence of this anywhere?
Hourglass scattered light by far!!!
Slayfire has some beautiful glitters!
Mine is an eye glitter specifically but I swear by the stila eye glitters!!
Maybe try the Colourpop super shock shadows.
Yep I have a number of Colourpop glitter eyeshadows and they’re all gorgeous with a very high glitter ratio. Last Christmas I wore an iridescent/gold sheen one on the edges of my eyes down my cheekbones just for fun. Looked fabulous!
Slayfire cosmetics. I follow them on instagram and their glitters are amazing!
