Biodegradable Glitter, what is it?
- 1 min reading time
A festive eye look can't be complete without some glitter , right? We don't say less bitter, more glitter for nothing! Loose fine glitter, glitter gel, body glitter, glitter hairspray ... but what exactly does that mean, is it wise to use glitter? Because microplastic is one of the biggest culprits when it comes to plastic pollution in the oceans.
Bio Glitters
Fortunately, manufacturers are also aware of this and have sought alternatives for this problem when it comes to glitter. For example, the so-called bio-glitters are increasingly being chosen . These glitters are made of special biodegradable cellulose film that is compostable. These glitters are not harmful to the environment but glitter and shine just as hard as the regular plastic variants. You will not even notice it, and you are doing the environment a favor because these bio glitters are biodegradable.
Tips for your glitter stash!
Do you have glitter in your cupboard but no bio-glitters yet and would you still like to do your bit? Then make sure that you do not flush the glitter down the sink but that you remove it with a paper towel and then throw it away in the trash. Is there glitter in your hair? Then spray some hairspray on a kitchen roll and go through your hair with it. Then throw the kitchen roll away. Need new glitter? Make sure that it is biodegradable glitter.
