How To Do This Season’s Glitter Makeup Trend

We’d be lying if we said the word ‘glitter’ didn’t send a little shudder down our spines. Yes, rubbing Barry M glitter pots all over our face worked when we were eight years old, but surely you can't pull it off when your age reaches double figures?!

Forget its association with school girl arts and crafts, it has now blossomed into an actual expert-approved makeup trend.

Put any dreams you had of doing a super speedy ‘desk-to-disco’ makeup look to one side and read on to find out how to apply it this party season, without a bottle of PVA glue in sight.
