FAQs

Can I use this glitter on my face or body?

No, this product is strictly for crafting and is not tested or approved for cosmetic use.

How quickly does it biodegrade?

It is certified to biodegrade quickly and safely in natural freshwater environments.

Is the shaker jar recyclable?

Yes, the jar is designed to be reusable, refillable, and fully recyclable.

Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, the glitter is plant-derived, cruelty-free, and contains no animal products.

Can I mix this with paint?

Yes, you can mix it into water-based paints, but add it just before application to ensure the best sparkle effect.

Troubleshooting

Glitter is clumping during application

Ensure the surface is completely dry and free of excessive glue; shake the jar gently to break up any moisture-induced clumping before use.

Glitter does not stick to surface

Switch to a tacky white glue or a thicker craft adhesive; ensure you are applying the glitter while the glue is still wet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces microplastic pollution in natural water systems
  • Environmentally friendly plant-based ingredients
  • Reusable and recyclable storage shaker jar
  • Safe for children's craft environments (non-toxic)
  • Cruelty-free and allergen-free production

Cons

  • Not certified or safe for use on skin or as a cosmetic
  • Available in a limited 20g size
  • May behave differently than plastic glitter with certain solvent-based adhesives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using the glitter, simply twist the lid of the shaker jar to the desired opening size. For best results, work over a scrap piece of paper or a tray so you can funnel unused glitter back into the jar after the project is complete. Compatibility is highest with water-based adhesives, glues, and paints. Keep the container sealed in a dry environment when not in use to maintain the integrity of the plant-based flakes. Once your project is finished, clean your workspace with a damp cloth or vacuum; because it is biodegradable, any residual dust that enters the waste stream will not persist in the ecosystem like plastic glitters.
