Figeater Metallic Emerald Gel Wand
Figeater Metallic Emerald Gel Wand
A PETA-certified vegan and cruelty-free gel wand with elastic polymer and flex-gel technology that delivers a 24-hour, crease-proof metallic finish — this particular shade, Figeater, is an opaque lush emerald green with shimmering gold flecks, inspired by the iridescent exoskeleton of the Los Angeles fig beetle. Glisten Cosmetics also packs nearly double the product volume of most comparable gel wands, which means the price-per-use is better than it first appears.

The Figeater Colorwand is a metallic gel wand from Glisten Cosmetics — a UK-based, family-run brand founded in 2017 that builds its entire range around the principle that vibrant, ethical beauty should not cost a fortune.
The shade itself is worth a moment. Figeater is named after the fig beetle that appears across Los Angeles every June, signalling the start of stone fruit season. Its exoskeleton — deep emerald armour shot through with shimmering gold — is exactly what this colour replicates: an opaque, lush metallic green that shifts and catches light the way the beetle's carapace does in the California sun. It is a specific, considered reference, not a generic green.
The formula behind it is just as considered. Elastic polymer and flex-gel technology give the wand a smooth, resistance-free glide that does not drag or skip. The pigment is intense enough to show up in a single swipe on all skin tones, but the formula is also buildable and blendable — wear it opaque for full impact or sheered out across broader areas for something more ethereal. It is waterproof, lightweight, and rated for 24 hours of crease-proof, smudge-proof wear with zero flaking or transfer.
It is also formulated without microplastics, which matters for a product that will eventually be washed off skin and into water systems.

Many ways to use it: Create bold, graphic lines. Build up for full opacity. Blend out across lids, cheekbones, or collarbones for a diffused metallic wash. Pair with Glisten Cosmetics' stencil pack for precise, striking looks in seconds. The formula works on skin and hair, so the wand travels well beyond a single use case.
