Mica Powders are stunning natural colours that are commonly known for their use in mineral makeup and eye shadows, etc. However, micas have gained incredible popularity as a natural alternative to colouring waxes with an eye catching pearlescent sheen. Use around 5% mica powder for a shimmering effect.

Or to decorate the outside of your container:

We would not recommend using any of our glitters inside a wax or gel candle. They can also be used to sprinkle on the surface of wax melts. The base substance of our glitter is PET plastic, so if they come into contact with very high heat they could melt possibly causing unpleasant fumes to be omitted.

Ecological Benefits of Bio Glitter

Bio-glitter® is based on biodegradable film made from trees, primarily eucalyptus, sourced from responsibly managed plantations.

Health Benefits

Bio-glitter® contains low levels of heavy metals. Antimony levels in Bio-glitter® are below the limits of detection, effectively zero. Whereas, cosmetic polyester glitter can have antimony levels as high as 150ppm. The antimony in polyester is a by-product of a catalyst used in the manufacture of polyester.

Cosmetic Benefits

Bio-glitter® feels more comfortable on the skin. Bio-glitter® is physically 30-40% softer than polyester glitter.
