The Sparkly Survival Guide for the Festival season

Let’s be honest – if you’ve ever caught yourself putting on face glitter in a porta-potty mirror at 2 am, glow stick in one hand and warm cider in the other… you’re in the right spot.

This is your fun, no-BS guide to eco-friendly, dancefloor-approved face glitter and full-body sparkle. Let’s nail those festival glitter makeup looks without letting Mother Earth down.

🎯 First, Let’s Talk Strategy: Where to Put the Glitter?

There are three universal truths at festivals:

Time doesn’t exist.
Your phone is dead.
There’s always room for more glitter.

So, how do you make the magic happen?

1. Face Glitter: The Crown Jewel 👑

Face glitter is your chance to get creative. The go-to spots? Temples, cheekbones, and under your eyes!

💡 Pro tip: Mix a little glitter with some aloe gel or natural balm for a shimmer that sticks—and keeps your skin happy all night long.

2. Glitter Body: It’s a Lifestyle ✨

There’s no such thing as “too much” when it comes to a glitter body. Shoulders, collarbones, arms, thighs, butt (yes, glitter booty is a thing — and it’s glorious).

3. Glitter Makeup Festival Looks That Hit Different 🔥

Add some sparkle to your eyelids, dab a little glitter on your cupid’s bow, or (our favorite) mix it into your braids or the tips of your hair. Match it to your outfit—or don’t. Embracing the chaos is a vibe too!

🧼 “But What About Clean-Up?” a.k.a. The Morning After Glitter Hangover

We’ve all been there—waking up tangled in half your costumes, with the rest somehow lost at the bottom of your sleeping bag.

Here’s the fix:

Use natural oil (coconut, jojoba, olive) and a cloth to gently wipe off glitter.
And if you must use wipes, make sure they are biodegradable.

♻️ One Last Thing: Glitter Doesn’t Have to Destroy the Planet

Most commercial glitter = microplastic. That’s why at Projekt Glitter, we’re flipping the script with biodegradable glitter that sparkles and decomposes.
