Glitter Bar

Glam, Glimmer, and Glow for Every Occasion

Note: Hourly pricing is per artist, per hour.

Twisted Turtle of Charlotte offers Glitter Bar services that add glam, shimmer, and sparkle to any event. From face-safe glitter gels to cosmetic gems and shimmer accents, we deliver quick, eye-catching designs that turn heads and light up every party.

  • Face-safe glitter gels and gems for glam, eye-catching looks. Includes a two-hour minimum to ensure plenty of time for stylish, sparkling designs.

  • Combine our glitter bar accents with long-lasting, waterproof glitter tattoos for maximum sparkle and fun at any event.

How It Works

Each look takes about 2–4 minutes to apply depending on the design. We use professional-grade glitter gels, cosmetic-safe adhesives, and skin-friendly gems to create radiant accents on the cheeks, eyes, and forehead.

That means:

  • Up to 20 guests can be served per hour

  • One artist can serve around 35–40 guests during a 2-hour booking

  • Designs dry quickly with minimal mess

  • Suitable for indoor or outdoor events with proper setup

For bigger events or high guest counts, you can always add more time or bring in an additional artist to keep things flowing.

Glitter Bar FAQ

1. Is the glitter safe for sensitive skin?

Yes! We only use cosmetic-grade glitter, gels, and skin-safe adhesives designed for facial use. Everything we apply meets cosmetic safety standards and is safe for all skin types.

2. How long do Glitter Bar designs last?

Glitter gels and gem accents can last all day with normal wear. Most guests remove them at night, but they can stay in place through dancing, sweating, and even light rain.

3. How are the designs removed?

Designs can be easily removed with makeup remover, baby oil, or gentle soap and water. Adhesive gems should be peeled gently to avoid skin irritation.

4. What kind of designs do you offer?

We create accent looks around the eyes, cheeks, and forehead. These can include swirls of glitter, patterns, or combinations with face gems. While we don’t do complex makeup looks, we do make you shine.

5. Who is the Glitter Bar best for?

Everyone! While younger kids love it, it’s especially popular with tweens, teens, and adults. It's a perfect choice for school events, dances, parties, and corporate gatherings.

6. Can you match the glitter to my party colors?

Yes! We bring a wide range of glitter colors and can prioritize selections that match your event’s palette or vibe.

7. Do you do themed Glitter Bar looks?

Not officially. But our artists are happy to work within the mood or feel of your event using available glitter and gems—think “mermaid sparkle” or “unicorn shimmer,” rather than exact character replicas.

8. Is shelter required for outdoor events?

Yes. The Glitter Bar setup needs to be kept dry and shaded. If you don’t have cover, we can bring a tent for a small additional fee.
