Get ready to sparkle with bright new products

- By HERALD STAFF

As any well-versed fashionist­as know, this season is all about the sparkle. From sequins sprinkled liberally through the spring collection­s to glitterize­d kicks, lipsticks, eye shadow and hair spray, you're not on trend if you're not shining in some way. Fortunatel­y, there are some literal bright spots on this horizon, with new products for the glitterati.

GLITTER SUNSCREEN: As in Sea Star Sparkle SPF 50+ with Glitter. With that SPF you're protected as you soak in the sun on the Cape — it also provides 80 minutes of water resistance, antioxidan­ts and broad spectrum UVA/ UVB protection. And glitter. Comes in Very Berry, Mango Tango and Party Cake scents. $18.95 for 4 oz. sunshine glitter.com.

GLITTER BUG REPELLENT: Take that high wattage sunscreen, keep the glitter and add all-natural bug repellent and you've got Glamour Camper SPF 50+. It's a 40-minute, water-resistant broad spectrum and zinc based sunscreen in a woods scent (with cedar, citronella, lemongrass and peppermint oil that serve as a natural bug repellant). $18.95 for 3 oz. sunshinegl­itter.com.

GLITTER GUM: Ice Breakers launches the first-ever bubble gum with edible glitter in the States on Sunday. It's a limited time deal, which is a shame, because we tried it, and the cherry snow cone flavor is delish. Ice Breakers Ice Cubes Glitter Gum Summer Snow Cone, $3.69.
