Guide to Applying Temporary Glitter Freckles Like a Pro
Share
Adding a bit of sparkle to your look has never been easier or more fun with glitter freckles! Whether you’re looking to glam up for a festival, a night out, or just want a unique, eye-catching look, glitter freckles can instantly take your style to the next level.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to apply temporary glitter freckles like a pro, along with a few tips to make sure they stay perfect all day (or night!) long.
Step 1: Prep Your Skin
For glitter freckles to stay in place, a good base is essential. Start with clean, moisturized skin. If you’re wearing foundation, choose one with a dewy finish, as matte foundations can make it harder for the glitter to adhere. Lightly powder your T-zone, leaving the freckle area with a bit of tackiness for better hold.
Pro Tip: If you have oily skin, a setting spray or primer on the areas where you’ll apply the freckles can help them last longer.
Step 2: Choose Your Glitter Freckle Color
Our Glitter Freckle Bundle comes in three stunning shades: gold, silver, and rose gold. Choose a color that complements your outfit or the occasion:
- Gold for a warm, sun-kissed glow
- Silver for a bold, icy shimmer
- Rose Gold for a soft, romantic touch
Feel free to mix and match colors! Adding a few flecks of each color can give your freckles a dimensional, multi-toned effect that’s unique and eye-catching.
Step 3: Apply the Glitter Freckles
With your skin prepped and your color chosen, it’s time to apply the freckles. Our glitter freckles come as easy-to-use, peel-and-stick tattoos. Here’s how to get the best results:
- Peel carefully – Start by peeling the freckle tattoo carefully from its backing.
- Position it – Place the freckle tattoo over the areas where you want the glitter to shine, typically across your cheeks and the bridge of your nose.
- Press and hold – Once positioned, gently press down on the tattoo to ensure it sticks evenly to your skin. Hold it in place for a few seconds.
- Peel off slowly – Slowly peel off the clear backing to reveal your new glitter freckles.
Pro Tip: If you want a more dispersed look, cut the freckle tattoo into smaller sections and apply them individually. This also gives you more control over the placement and density of the freckles.
Step 4: Set Your Freckles for Extra Hold
While our glitter freckles are designed to stay put, setting them can ensure they last through dancing, sweating, and anything else your day might bring. Use a setting spray over your entire face to lock in your makeup and freckles.
Optional: Lightly dab a translucent setting powder around, but not directly on, the freckles. This helps secure the areas around the freckles without dulling their shine.
Step 5: Touch Up & Remove Freckles Easily
If you want to keep your look fresh, bring a few freckle tattoos with you for touch-ups. When it’s time to remove them, use our Makeup Remover Wipes with Micellar Water for a gentle, easy cleanse that won’t irritate your skin or leave behind any residue.
Additional Tips for Glitter Freckles
- Play with placement – Freckles don’t just have to be on your nose and cheeks. Try adding a few to the outer corners of your eyes, above your brow bone, or even on your collarbones for a unique sparkle.
- Layer with regular freckles – If you naturally have freckles or want to draw some on with makeup, use your glitter freckles on top to make them stand out even more.
- Use them for body art – These versatile glitter freckles are perfect for adding a touch of sparkle to your shoulders, chest, or anywhere else you want to shine.
