Is There Any Problem Of Swallowing Body Glitter?
Hi, I was taking photos today, and I use a lot of body glitter, and I used some on my lips, and a little got in my mouth. The little glitter thing said do not ingest, but barely a little got in my mouth, do they mean like do not ingest like just eating it? Am I gonna be okay?

welcome to hcm,
there is nothing to worry if you have ingested a small amount of it .
if you feel like vomiting or any other abnormal problems consult your physician or else nothing to worry and be careful while using it further. when small amounts of such materials get into the body it is usually excreted without any hindrance.
drink lot of water
take fibre rich foods
follow up if you have any other symptoms regarding it
