The glitter makeup market has become a saturated place in the last few years [2]. From Fenty's holiday collection [3] to just about anything Too Faced releases [4], we all just want to light up our faces like a Christmas tree.
That said, it's hard for glitter, an accessory that was once perceived as truly out there, to truly shock anyone anymore. It's everywhere — in fact, as I write this from my desk, wearing full business casual, I'm also sporting a full gold foil eye look. So get ready, because these Luxelarose Glitter Pigments just might totally surprise you.
The UK-based brand (which ships internationally — don't you fret!) posted an Instagram of its Anastasia Metallic Pigment [5] ($20), and oh my word. When this hot-pink powder is combined with a mixing medium base, it paints on one gorgeous strip of glossy goo. As you can see from the swatch, this thick, clean application goes on in just one swipe. I dare you not to watch this hypnotizing, glam-as-heck video on repeat for hours on end.
Perhaps you're not a fan of the color pink (you monster). That's OK . . . because Luxelarose sells a Dubai Metallic Pigment [6] ($20) that basically looks like straight-up liquid gold.
As mentioned above, Luxelarose only supplies the pigments, which come in powder form. It's up to the wearer to combine that with a mixing base — NYX sells a great one for $7 [8] — to achieve such gooey goodness.
