Bio-glitter® states that “each glitter is accurately cut to a hexagonal shape with an exceptionally narrow particle size distribution which maximises appearance and brilliance, no large or dusty bits. Even our small sizes of Bio-glitter® are hexagonal. When it comes to cosmetics we feel hexagonal glitter offers a big advantage over square cut glitter; INCREASED COMFORT. A hexagon has larger corner angles so they are not as sharp.”

GENERAL USES

Bio-glitter® can be used in a wide range of cosmetic applications; dry, water-based, alcohol-based and oil-based*. For guidance on typically where difference sizes of Bio-glitter® are used see our glitter size and application guidance PDF
