gorgeous .. butttt i feel obligated to say this .. PLEASEEEEEEE be super super careful [aka just dont wear them] when using the glitters .. i'm a MAC artist .. worn the glitters for years on my eyes [mixing mediums used and not used] .. always just said "not for eye use" and would turn my ears off when people would start saying they were going to use them on their eyes .. what you do with them outside of buying them is what you do, i've done my job by explaining to you that they AREN'T eye safe [contrary to what some people say, even with mixing mediums, they are NOT .. think about it .. even pearlglides aren't safe for waterline .. it has to do with how they are made and what the glitter is suspended in] .. then last weekend wore my glitter as normal. changed my mind before leaving work .. had it on for less than 20 MINUTES! .. woke up sunday morning in excrutiating pain and my eye was swollen shut .. yep .. scratched cornea ..

not just an urban legend. it happens, and its as painful as having kidney stones .. so PLEASEEE guys be careful =[ it happens to everyone .. even MAC artists =[

sorry to hear that ;/ i literally wear glitters MAYBE 3 times a year, and i'm always careful about placement because I know the danger they can bring, but thanks for bringing this up for others who may not know
