FAQs On Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette

1. How do you stick glitter to eyelids?

If you want glitter to stay on the lids, you can apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or transparent lip balm over your lids. Once you’ve applied a layer of either, you can dust some glitter powder over the lids. To keep the glitter from slipping off, it also helps to first prime your lids with a good primer. The primer works at keeping your eyeshadow and glitter pigments in place for long.

2. What is the easiest way to remove glitter?

Step 1: Soak a cotton pad in baby oil or olive oil.

Step 2: Gently glide the soaked pad across your lids in a sweeping gesture. This will help lift the pigments.

Step 3: Lastly, rinse your face with a mild cleanser to get rid of any strayed glitter residues.
