Some girls say it stings, but I`m unsure if he`s ever blinded anyone (:¦

glitter is very finely chopped laminated foil. if you were to get any in your eye, the natural instinctive reaction is to blink rapidly and rub the affected eye. this will undoubtedly lead to a scratched cornea, which hurts like hell. I scratched my eyeball with some sawdust from a new fence panel a couple of years ago and had a few days off work, but was as right as rain after a short healing period.

To answer the question, i don`t think it`s possible to be blinded by a few falkes entering the eye area. You`ve have to get a load in there and damage the optic nerve to be fully blind. Even if you severely scrathed the surface, a short trip to the hospital and the subsequent treatment would have you seeing normally within a week.

Always thought you just didn`t like it coz you were manly ;)

Won`t blind you, and a scratched cornea hurts less than having your nipple pierced! Also, if you managed not to rub it should any get in your eye, it could be fushed out with like optrex and prevent even any scratching.

Won`t get you...honest!
