how to use
Illuminating Highlights + Lowlights: Apply a small amount of Spacepaste® from jar or Spacecase® Pro-Palette onto the back of your hand. Rub it back and forth to lay it flat then use a finger to press it onto skin. If applying over heavier makeup, use a waterproof setting spray before applying glitter. It takes only a tiny amount to achieve the desired effect. Layering too much iridescent glitter can not only make it appear flakey, but will also waste precious product.
Metallics + Holochromes:
Use a flat synthetic brush to apply a small bead of product directly from jar to skin. Using short strokes, flatten the product into one thin layer and remove excess with either the same brush or a soft spoolie.
how to remove
The easiest way is a damp makeup wipe or cotton round with micellaire water. You will naturally want to rub back-and-forth to remove like an eyeshadow but DO NOT do that- you will make a mess and risk getting glitter into your eyes. Simply hold the makeup wipe or damp cotton over the glitter for a few moments to allow it to release. Gently swipe off in one-direction. Fold/flip and repeat. You'll get 99% of the glitter off almost every time. Any remaining pieces will wash away with your normal cleansing routine.
Another very fast way to remove Spacepaste® glitter either at home or on-the-go is with clear tape or a sticky lint roller. Most people dont have tape laying around their bathroom but if you're going to be a glitter freak like us, you just might!
