Each of the Spa*rkle kits allow kids to feel good about themselves and have a good experience. Behind the scenes, Bright Stripes made sure none of the ingredients were derived from or tested on animals, and the glitter is ocean-safe and biodegradable.

Whether celebrating the Festival of Lights or touring the Christmas lights in the neighborhood, the holidays mean sparkle, shine, and shimmer.

Even shy tweens will want to light up the room with their designs.
