"When the Trees say re-planted to grow more, and some people rent the same tree each year," Alastair .

We also sell aloe-vera-gel to stick the glitter. "

But the bio-glitter is a relatively new product, and Nicole says, there are limitations.

"some Specific shapes and effects to be made out of Plastic , so we can't sell everything, neon, UV, glow in The Dark , iridescent or holographic. "
