How to get the look:

• Use an adhesive for the glitter. Try the NYX Glitter Primer (S$10) so that the sparkle stays put.
• Although they’re meant to look like tears, try not to go too near the eyes to prevent irritation.
• If glitter tears look too theatrical to you, try using glitter eyeliner on your lower lash line for a start.
