Glitter Wholesale

Choosing particle size and finish for stable formulas

This category brings together cosmetic grade glitter for makeup, body, and personal care formulations, ranging from fine dust particles to larger chunky flakes in solid colors, holographic finishes, and iridescent effects. Buyers can choose by hex or square particle shape, size range, and base color, sourcing everything from a single classic shade to full multicolor sets for blending custom mixes.

Formulators use these glitters in body gels, hair and face gels, lip products, nail polish bases, and decorative additives for creams and balms, where the particles stay suspended without dulling the finish. For cooler, mirror like reflections rather than sparkle, the Liquid Metallic Pearl Pigments Wholesale range works well as a complementary base layer.

Brighter, UV reactive projects, such as festival makeup or novelty body art, often call for the Fluorescent Neon Glitters Wholesale line instead, since standard glitters do not glow under UV light.

Solid color and specialty finish ranges

Standard solid glitters cover core shades such as White Glitter, Blue Glitter, Red Glitter, Glitter Gold and Silver Glitter. These give flat, consistent color under normal light and stay stable in water based and oil based bases alike.

Beyond the basics, formulators can build a fuller palette with Turquoise glitter, Green Glitter and Pink Glitter, then layer in fluorescent options like Fluorescent glitter neon Orange, Fluorescent neon Green Glitter and Fluorescent Glitter Neon Yellow for punchier, high visibility batches.

Matching glitter to a formula

Particle size drives the first decision: fine dust blends smoothly into thin lotions and gel bases without a gritty feel, while chunky flakes suit thicker balms, body gels, and decorative top layers where texture is part of the look. Hex cut particles tend to lie flatter and catch light evenly, whereas square cut particles can give a slightly different sparkle pattern.

Color choice usually follows the base product itself. A clear or lightly tinted gel lets any glitter color show through cleanly, while pigmented creams and balms often work best with metallic or white glitter for contrast. Glitter pairs well with suspending agents and thickeners already common in gel and cream formulas, and small test batches are worth running before scaling up a production run.

Sourcing and storage notes

Glitter in this range is sourced from suppliers in China, England, the United States and the United Kingdom, giving buyers a mix of standard and specialty finishes to choose from. Keep containers sealed and stored away from moisture and direct heat, since humidity can cause fine particles to clump before use.

For a mirror like metallic layer rather than a sparkle effect, the Metallic Mica Powder Wholesale range is a useful complement for building depth in a single formula.
