The key to wearing glitter is to wear it minimally wherever you decide to place it. We love that @_bylabella's look is so subtle you can't tell she's wearing any glitter. To create this look, this Instagrammer used a hint of Jouer Cosmetics's Ultra Foil Shimmer Shadows (Skinny Dip), $40, in the center of her lids and in the corners of her eye. Gorgeous!
Loose glitter can be intimidating. You're constantly worried that it might flake or fall off, or that you're wearing too much. But wearing a hint of loose glitter along your cheekbone or in the corners of your eyes is perfect for almost any look. We like Make Up For Ever Glitters, $15, because a little goes a long way. Just apply any primer and pat on the skin with a wet brush for a long-lasting effect.

3. Go Neon
Yes, of course you can wear neon glitter. Just make sure the rest of your makeup is neutral and less attention-grabbing.

4. Try It on Eyelashes
Wearing glitter on your lashes from root to tip can be bold, unexpected and downright beautiful. For intense, super shiny lash color with length, volume and curl, use a mascara with small flecks of glitter like Yves Saint Laurent Vinyl Couture, $29. For an even greater impact, opt for larger glitter pieces. First apply primer, then add glittered eyeshadow like Stila's Glitter & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow, $24.

5. Wear Glitter for Fuller Lips
Want the appearance of fuller, bigger lips in seconds? Wear glitter in the center of your lips with a shimmer liner along your cupid's bow. The light-reflective particles in the glitter give the illusion of a fuller-looking pout, while the metallic and glittered liner makes your lips look longer and plumper.
