Question

What substance is glitter actually made of?

Answer 1

It used to be made of metal, and would rust after awhile.  Now glitter is made of an acrylic sheet cut into millions of miniscule pieces.  It is theoretically non-toxic, but I wouldn't eat it deliberately if I were you.

Answer 2

lol, look on the back of a glitter case.

Glitter is mostly, more then anything else, glass peices.

thousands or little glass chips.

so try to not get that **** in your eyes, its bad for you.
