EcoGlimmer is a new type of cosmetic biodegradable glitter, intended for decorative use on face, body and hair, and for crafting. It is made from cellulose, a renewable, natural fiber from the eucalyptus and other plants. Its environmental impact is minimal, because once it enters a natural environment such as a field or waste water, microbes will consume the biodegradable content, turning it into carbon dioxide, water and biomass. Very little inert material is left behind. Our hex shaped glitters are 92% biodegradable and our stars are 85% biodegradable. This is different from traditional glitters and most cosmetic glitters, which are 100% micro-plastics and therefore take a very long time to break down. EcoGlimmer contains no harmful chemicals, and contains ingredients either approved for cosmetic use on skin & hair, or already broadly used in cosmetics or food.

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO USE OUR PRODUCT SAFELY:

​TO APPLY: To apply ecoGlimmer Biodegradable Cosmetic Glitters, simply dab a small amount of un-petroleum jelly, aloe vera or hair gel on skin, spread evenly, then shake, dab or paint glitter over area you want to cover. Our SpritzGlitz sprayers make application easier, more uniform, and with less waste. Although your application may vary, we have found hair gels to have more adhesion and that the un-petroleum jelly product by Alba Botanica works well.

​For all ecoGlimmer products, we advise that you do a patch test before your event to make sure products and your technique are compatible and to see how your body reacts.

​Remember to keep your ecoGlimmer clean!
Our ecoGlimmer glitters do not contain any preservatives and may pick up contamination from fingers or surfaces. Please use cosmetic applicators, clean brushes, or simply shake glitter to apply.

Do not recycle glitter!

​FOR ALL ECOGLIMMER PRODUCTS:

​Although we strive to use safe plant derived materials, please use common sense in applying ecoGlimmer. Glitter is, after all, made up of tiny, rigid, chips:
` Do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
` Discontinue use immediately if rash, irritation, or discomfort develops.
` For external use only.
` Not for use near eyes or on the lips.
` Avoid spraying non-aerosol SpritzGlitz in eyes.

​FIRST AID IF GLITTER GETS IN EYES
(Please refer to your health provider or search for: Mayo Clinic - Foreign Object in the Eye https://www.mayoclinic.org/first-aid/basics/art-20056645)
​1. Wash your hands in soap and water. Make sure your hands do not have glitter on them.
2. Remove contact lenses if you are wearing them. Foreign object may become lodged under the lens.
3. Flush your eye with a gentle stream of clean, warm water. Use a clean glass or eye cup to flush your eye if available.
4. Alternatively, direct a warm stream of water from a shower onto your forehead. Let the water flow over your affected eye, holding your eyelid open.
Get medical assistance if you cannot remove the glitter by flushing with water, you experience abnormal vision, or you have irritation for more than 24 hours after you flushed glitter from your eye.

​DISCLAIMER: Our glitters are designed for biodegradability and FDA ingredient compliance when used according to directions on the face, body, or hair. Although ecoGlimmer may be used in crafts, the crafts user must be aware that biodegradable cosmetic glitters are significantly different from plastic, glass or metal craft glitters. The craft user assumes all risk when using ecoGlimmer in his/her work or application.
