For years, glitter and all things sparkly were relegated to the bowels of bad '90s teen beauty trends. This wasn't the case in 2017 — the year glitter made a comeback.
So well-received was the throwback beauty trend that the term #glitterbomb became something to aspire to, and not just on New Year's Eve.
That being said, NYE is just around the corner and because glitter beauty looks have become fairly commonplace, you'll really have to up the sparkle intensity for this auspicious night. The good news is, glitter beauty products are plentiful and ready to take on 2018.
These sparkly products from our favourite beauty brands will keep you shining right into the new millennium.
