Glitter lotion bars

[Rusti]

Particularly Shimmy Shimmy: http://www.lushusa.com/Shimmy-Shimmy/01318,en_US,pd.html

I'd like to make something similar for myself. I've made lotion bars before, but they were really simple, just a little EO for scent and no colors. The glitter in Shimmy Shimmy seems a little finer than the fine iridescent glitter I got from BB and maybe just a little courser than mica, though I could be mistaken.

Has anybody done something like this before? What sort of glitter/mica did you use and at what volume?

I haven't used any of the following, but maybe something like these from TKB? (they are USA-approved and EU-approved for use around the lips, eyes and face):

I haven't tried it before but that sparkle looks pretty similar to "Super Sparkles" or "Snowflake Sparkle" mica from Nurture.

It sure does. Might have to give it a try just for testing purposes next time I make some.
