How to apply glitter
Okay so how do I actually get to apply the glitter, you ask? Well,
Complete your eyeshadow look with all the matte tones you use
This could be any and all the colours you plan to go for but start this off before going straight for the glitter!
KHUSH’S TIP: Avoid applying glitter without a base of colours. The glitter will not live to its full potential and with all the right colours complimenting your chosen glitter, you will be sure to get a great application too!BLEND it all!
You don’t want your eye makeup looking like you have piled everything on. Glitter will elevate your look to a completely different level so blend away and trust the process; the end result will be worth it!Add some Luna by Khush to bring your look to LIFE!
With a flat head brush, dab some glitter straight from our refill pan and pack it onto the eyelid where you desire! You can go as bold or as toned down as you like.
KHUSH’S TIP: To activate a more creamy application of the pressed glitter, spray your chosen brush with setting spray to get precise with application!
KHUSH’S FAVOURITE: Apply the glitter to the middle of the lid (the “halo” eye) to focus all the attention to the eyes!Don’t forget eyeliner and mascara!
You can finish off your look with the your favourite eyeliner and mascara now to bring the entire look together and completed!
Why not try the Lift & Lengthen mascara; just what you need for your look now!
