Hire a Glitter Bar for Weddings and Parties — Artists from €150 | Artistealo

Glitter bar: body glitter and face glam for festivals and parties

A glitter bar is a makeup and body-art station specialising in biodegradable glitter, body glitter and face decoration. Guests sit down, choose their design and in a few minutes they are sparkling on their face, neck, décolletage or hair. It is the perfect add-on for music festivals, hen parties, themed parties, birthdays and night events where a festive atmosphere and shimmer take centre stage.

How much does it cost to hire a glitter bar?

The price depends on the hours, the number of artists and the estimated number of participants. Typical price ranges in Spain:

• Basic (2 hours, 1 artist): from €150 to €280
• Standard (3-4 hours, 1-2 artists): from €280 to €500
• Premium (full day, multiple artists + premium products): from €500 to €900

What's included in a glitter bar service

A standard service includes a fully set-up station with all materials, biodegradable glitter in various colours, cosmetic-grade glitter gel, gems and skin-safe adhesives, one or more artists for the contracted time, personalised designs for each guest and, in many cases, a glitter-removal kit or wipes for the end of the night. Some providers also offer henna tattoos, UV make-up and hair decoration.

Frequently asked questions

Is the glitter safe for skin?

Specialist providers use cosmetic-grade glitter and glitter gel, free from micro-cut plastics and often biodegradable. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, mention it when booking so the artist can use suitable products.

How many guests can a glitter bar serve in one evening?

One artist can serve between 15 and 25 people per hour depending on design complexity. For large groups or high-footfall events, hiring two artists is recommended.

Is any special space needed for the bar?

A table or counter and two chairs with good lighting nearby are enough. The provider usually brings their own furniture. A spot away from heavy guest traffic is ideal so the artist can work comfortably.

How long does the glitter last on skin?

With setting gel it lasts 6 to 10 hours, depending on sweat, water and the area applied. It removes easily with oil or make-up remover.
