From smearing glitter on our bodies, to face jewels and the winter holiday collections of metallic and glitter makeups, it’s been a big year for cosmetic glitter. There were a lot of glitter lipsticks and lip glosses, as well as glitter eyeshadow palettes. Others prefer to use a pure glitter pigment.
