Eco Glitter
What Is Eco Glitter?
Conventional glitter is made from plastic film coated in metal, cut into tiny pieces that end up as microplastics in our waterways. Eco glitter is a kinder alternative. Our cosmetic eco glitter is Bioglitter®, made with a core of plant-based cellulose instead of plastic, so you can sparkle at festivals, parties and events with far less impact on the planet.
We started Luminosity Glitter after realising that the glitter we all loved was a microplastic. Today we're one of the UK's leading eco glitter specialists, supplying festival-goers, makeup artists and some of the world's biggest brands.

How to Apply Eco Glitter
For the strongest hold, use our Glitter Fix Gel. For a lighter, softer hold, aloe vera gel works well. Apply with a brush and build up in layers. Follow our step-by-step festival glitter guide, and when you're done, see how to remove glitter.
