Lit Cosmetics Glitter Review

 
Lit Cosmetics is having a promotion where if you buy a Lit Kit from Sephora or Sephora.com, they send you two extra glitters and a sparkle duster. Considering their glitters are $14 each and a Lit Kit is only $19.95, I figured this was a great deal! The Lit Kit includes 1 glitter in either Hello Sunshine or Afternoon Delight, a 0.14 oz Clearly Liquid Glitter Base, and a little itty bitty brush. So basically you buy the Lit Kit from Sephora and send Lit Cosmetics an email with proof of purchase and they let you pick one extra glitter and then they choose another for you. I believe everyone receives the Festive glitter as their extra. My extra glitters also came with a code for a free glitter with a purchase from litcosmetics.com!

Okay now that I told you about the deal it's time for a review!

Hello Sunshine size #2 - This is described as a porcelain glitter with hints of orange sun bursts. I think it's beautiful and is a very close second favorite of mine. I wore it all over my lid with some brown in my crease and I loved how it came out.



Magic Dragon size #3 - This is described as a dark green with a blue halo. It is my absolute favorite! It's just so gorgeous I really can't get over it. I really love the shift from green to blue. I wore this one as an "explosion" (as I like to call it) in my inner corner. I'm not sure if that makes sense but I love doing it with a ton of glitter and I'll definitely post a picture some time of what it looks like. I'd really like to try it out on my lid and see how it looks but I haven't gotten around to it yet!



Festive size #2 - This is described as having golds, cranberries, and pinks. I'm not sure how I feel about this one yet! It's pretty but not as pretty as the other two. I'll have to keep playing around with it for now. I don't have a close up because honestly I just couldn't take a good one of it. My fault though, not the glitter's!

One of my biggest problems with applying these was that the brush is so dang tiny it's hard to get even application on your entire eyelid. You need the tiny brush though so you can dip it inside the glitter base. So you have no choice but to use it! I think this might just be user error and I'm not skilled enough to apply glitter but I thought it was important to point out. BUT! Once I got it on my eyes it looked stunning. Glittery and dazzling and I can't even think of the adjectives right now.

Overall: I would highly suggest these glitters and checking out the Lit Cosmetics website. They have so many glitters, I KNOW you will find one you love!
