· BioGlitter - fully biodegradable glitter
baoolai ltd is excited to announce that we now carry biodegradable cosmetic glitter!
This glitter looks and acts exactly like regular glitter, while being safer for you and the environment. BioGlitter feels more comfortable on the skin, as it is actually slightly softer than polyester glitter! The size of the particles is is 0.008" or 200 microns, which is finer than standard craft glitter.
Most commercially available glitters are based on PET (plastic) film and are not biodegradable, leaching into our eco system and the bellies of marine animals, into our food chain. Microbeads are being outlawed in various countries and PET glitter is not far behind. BioGlitter is based on a biodegradable film that is certified compostable, breaking down in the waste water system.
The biodegradable element of the glitter is derived from sustainable sources and does not contain genetically modified materials. It is based on biodegradable film made from trees, primarily eucalyptus, sourced from responsibly managed plantations.
BioGlitter offers the same precision cut and highly reflective properties as a conventional glitter, and will not break down on the shelf or on your skin!
