so, am i an idiot? i dont know how...where to put these glitters.
can i have suggestions from anyone? i searched youtube, specktra...just plain googled them. i cant get ideas. anyone have a picture of them wearing them or tips?

oh yea & i have no real access to mixing medium

I highly suggest getting some mixing medium! You can get some offline, doesn't have to be mac. Coastal scents has some.

But if you don't have mixing medium, it simply won't stay put, and you'll probably end up looking like an 8-year-old left alone while making greeting cards by the end of the day, lol

Your response made me think of my lil step daughters make-up looks !! Too funny!! Please get the mixing medium...Because Ashe & Sky look crazy with the glitter on their face!!

you can use other things to make glitter stick - a really thin layer of vaseline (petroleum jelly) works well to stick glitter.

im not sure if this works but many people use visine in place of mixing medium. i have a few glitters myself. wut i usually do is use a fluidline and just stick it on my lid or use it as a liner. it works well for me

Eyelash glue works well with giltters also! Since it dries clear all you see is the pretty stuff!

thanks for everyones suggestion on my haul.

idk if its right to ask it here now, but whats the difference/ best.....water based mixing medium...or the other lol

Actually you do not need mixing medium, MAC glitters are not safe to use on the eyes, even though there will be tons of people who tell you they do it all the time. MAC glitters are meant to be used on the body (mixed w/ body lotion), lips (mixed w/ gloss), nails and some people even use them in their hair. I would not let someone tell you to use the on your eyes, they contain particles of plastic which can scratch your cornea and lead to blindness. Hope this helps!

You can use the cheapy glitter eyeliners you can buy to make them stick, or eyelash glue. If you want to wear them like an eyeshadow, use a cream base :] I have a section about using glitter in makeup in my blog.
