heyy. :)
well, here's my dilemma-
i bought some loose "all over" glitter in a pot today, and went to go put some on... my hand wasn't too steady with my brush and it got all in my eye!
so i flushed my eye with tap water about three or four times, then used soap with it the fifth...
and after that, i took Q-tips and tried to dab out the individual glitter pieces out of my eye and off of my eyeball...
my eye was really red and swollen, but i think(i'm not too sure though) that i got all of the glitter out, and that it hurt so bad because i went digging around in my eye.
now, it feels a lot better...
i was just wondering if anyone could offer me some words of experience or advice? i really don't want damage to come to my eye.
thanks~♥ :)

Use a commercial eye drops that gets the red out. Talk to a pharmacist they can find you something.

Well, flushing your eye with water was a good idea, but never use soap! That really can irritate your eye.
If your eye still hurts tomorrow i would suggest to see a doctor. I cratched my eyes once with a brush by accident and one eye became very infected and it hurt a lot. They gave me a cream which i had to put into my eye and that helped enormously!
I hope your eye feels better soon.

Ahh! I've done that one before...
Flushing it with water was good, soap can harm your eye, much like after washing your hair and getting the shampoo in it.
Try using some eyedrops, and if your eye remains red, try visiting an eye doctor.

You need to see a doctor to determine if there is any damage to your eye and if there is more glitter that needs to be removed.

It sounds like you got it all out.
