Default Body Glitter

Now I want to sparkle on stage and not just with my fabulous burlesque routines (cue fits of laughter). Can anyone recommend a good body shimmer/glitter that will pick up the light whilst I'm on stage so I look sparkly and fairy like..??? Well thats the idea at least.

I have tried palmer coco butter body shimmer and have to say it was pretty poop.

I love Stargazer!!!

I think they do glitters, though I'm not sure how good they are. Barry M has some too, I think

Well if you want bright and bold I find spray glitter the best - just buy the cheap stuff you get in party shops for your hair and coat yourself with it. Pretty it is, subtle it ain't

Eyko sell a good body glitter, well more of a shimmer. It's only around £5, you can only get the stuff online or in superdrug. But I highly recommend.

I know that Too Faced do a 'kitty glitter' but I think it's meant for your face. The colours are adorable though xx

Spray glitters work well- Claire's sometimes does them seasonally too as well as the joke shops, so keep an eye out and stock up.
Lush does a couple of Glitter Bugs- the irridescent one is best, as the others can make you look a bit dirty if the light catches you wrong. I tend to top this up with stargazer pots, tapped very lightly over salient points (ie, decolletage, stomach and legs) as it'll last longer as the slight oilyness of the "bug" helps it stay on rather than just rubbing off quickly.
Alternative methods can include getting a bath bomb and rubbing that on oneself.... I have some gold glitter that is in a sort of oily soap, also from Lush!

For cheap glitter that is still quite fine I recommend craft shops, as they do great colours, but often 99p stores will have kiddie crafting packs that do tubes of glitter. Also those really cheap Chemists called things like "Bath and Body" or something often do 99p manicure packs that often have small amounts of glitter in them and that can sometimes be worthwhile...
