biodegradable glitter: shine without the environmental impact

If you appreciate the beauty of a luminous glow but are mindful of your environmental impact, you're not alone. While traditional glitter may enhance your look momentarily, its long-term effects on the planet are far from glamorous.

At Musa Glitter, we’ve made a conscious choice: every single one of our glitter-based products is crafted using 100% biodegradable glitter, so you can shine without compromise.

the problem with traditional glitter

Most conventional glitter is made from microplastics, tiny pieces of plastic that end up in oceans, rivers and even in the food chain. These particles are nearly impossible to remove from the environment and can take hundreds of years to break down. Once washed off your face or body, glitter goes straight into the water system, contributing to a massive global pollution problem.

So how can you sparkle guilt-free? That's where biodegradable glitter comes in.

what is biodegradable glitter?

Biodegradable glitter is crafted from alternatives to plastic such as plant-based cellulose or naturally sourced mica, depending on the formulation. When responsibly produced, these materials break down safely in the environment, particularly in composting conditions or soil, without leaving harmful microplastics behind. The result is the same high-impact sparkle, only cleaner, safer, and more aligned with a conscious beauty routine.
