Biodegradable Glitters

Our eco-friendly Biodegradable Glitters are cellulose-based cosmetic glitters designed to add beautiful shimmer and visual interest to a wide range of personal care, cosmetic, and craft applications. Made primarily from plant-derived cellulose, these biodegradable glitters achieve their sparkle through a minimal amount of aluminum, with a water-soluble acrylic ester binding the layers together. The result is a fine, lightweight glitter with a smooth, even appearance, offering a more eco-conscious alternative to traditional plastic glitter.

These versatile glitters are suitable for use in soaps, nail products, cosmetic formulations, and a wide range of creative craft projects, including resin art. In cold process and melt & pour soap making, they are most commonly used as a surface decoration or incorporated at low levels for subtle decorative effects. In cosmetics and nail products, they provide bright sparkle without the harsh, rigid feel often associated with traditional plastic glitters, while dispersing easily for consistent, reliable results across a variety of formulations.

As a cellulose-based alternative to traditional plastic glitter, these Biodegradable Glitters are designed to help reduce the use of synthetic plastics and microplastics in cosmetic and craft formulations, offering a more eco-conscious choice without compromising visual impact.
