Add sparkle to your makeup
Glitter adds a touch of sparkle to your makeup. You need to use the type of glitter that’s safe to wear on your face. Use fine glitter for a subtle look or chunky glitter for a bolder statement.
- Before you try out some face glitter ideas you should cleanse and moisturize your skin. Add a primer so the glitter will stay in place.
- Use glitter glue and apply it to the areas where you want the glitter to stick.
- Apply the glitter using your fingers or a brush.
- Press it gently into place and use a setting spray to lock it in place.
A great way to add glitter and glamor to your life is to make your own glittery nail polish. You will need:
- Basic clear nail polish
- Glitter
- A small funnel – you can make your own by rolling paper into a cone.
- A toothpick
Pour the glitter into the clear nail polish using the funnel. Stir with a toothpick. Replace the lid and shake so the glitter combines. Make sure you stir the bottle before you use it as the glitter may sink to the bottom.
Sparkle My Universe items like hair accessories can add to the look if you have a special occasion.
Practice self care
Think about what helps to make you feel better. Is it snuggling up under a warm blanket and reading a book? Is it taking a luxurious bath with some scented candles and your favorite chocolates at hand? Is it dressing up, going to a fine dining restaurant, and indulging in your favorite food? Making time for your favorite activity can add sparkle to your life.
Make a snow globe
To make a snow globe you will need a glass globe with a base that fits tightly. You will also need clear glue, glitter, warm water, and a mixing spoon. Begin by pouring warm water into the globe. Leave enough space at the top for adding other ingredients. Introduce clear glue or glycerine into the water. This sets the stage for the glitter to slowly swirl and float. As you shake the snow globe, enjoy the sparkle and affirm to yourself that you can sparkle too.
Create a Sparkle Book
Your Sparkle Book doesn’t have to contain any glitter but you can make a glittery cover for it. You could call it “My Sparkle Life”. It will contain words that can provide you with comfort and support when you feel anxious or down. For example, you may find a certain quote very inspiring and you will record it in your book.
You could divide your book into different sections. It could include activities that will help to lift your spirits and make you feel happy. Another section could be about people who make your life sparkle and how they do so. You could also have a section to record memories or achievements that brought you joy.
Spread the sparkle around
It can be easy to get so caught up in your own world that you don’t think about others. It may help to do something spontaneous to show people special to you that you are thinking about them. It doesn’t have to be an elaborate gesture. You could leave a note in your loved one’s lunchbox or a chocolate on a coworker’s desk. Small gestures have the power to bring back your sparkle and to spread it around.
Share your sparkle with others
Sharing what you’re good at can enrich your life and the lives of others. If you’ve managed to get through a difficult life experience, you could help others going through the same thing. If you play a musical instrument, you could teach others how to play it. If you love to paint, you could hold workshops to help others to paint. There are many ways to share your talents online today. You could create online courses or hold online workshops.

Spreading some sparkle to others and sharing your talents can add joy to your life. You can take a more literal approach by adding sparkle to your makeup, accessories, and more.
