Glow necklaces are often used to mark special occasions

Glow sticks are cylinders made from plastic which although also used as emergency lighting for instances such as camping and boat trips, are primarily associated with their use at special events such as parties. They work using a process known as chemilluminescence. When a glow stick is broken, the inner tubing snaps mixing two different solutions, which causes a chemical reaction causing the glow stick to illuminate. Glow sticks can also be made from plastic with varying degrees of pliability, meaning they can also be sold as Glow necklacesand Glow bracelets.
Wholesale Glow sticks are often used for entertainment purposes. Glowsticking is a word for the use of wholesale glow sticks when dancing at raves, dance clubs or concerts. The dancer juggles, throws and spins the glow sticks, often while dancing to very fast-paced dance music. Glow sticks are usually favoured for their use in this capacity owing to their durability, consistency of light, and the safety with which they may be tossed or jugged –as they are constructed from a pliable plastic material. Other derivative forms of dancing with glow sticks include glowstringing, which works on a similar principle to poi and other stringing performance activities, freehand and light shows, which also involve LED lighting.
According to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest ever recorded glow stick was built at the second Bang Face Weekender, a neo rave festival held in East Sussex on the 24th April 2009. Wholesale glow sticks are also often used to mark special occasions such as Halloween and the annual Mid-autumn festival which is held in Hong Kong.
It is commonly thought that wholesale glowsticks can be either frozen or heated up to prolong their use. While the former is true to some extent, temporarily inducing frozen state so that the stick may be used for slightly longer, heating up the glow stick only speeds up the chemical reaction inside the stick, meaning that it will glow brighter as the photon release quickens, however this also shortens its life.
The two solutions which combine when glow sticks are snapped can cause problems such as vomiting and skin irritation if released, also staining fabric and causing damage to the environment. Despite their comparative safety to other entertainment light sources such as sparklers, they should be used with caution.
Aside from conventional sticks, glow sticks can also take on the guise of glow bracelets and glow necklaces. UV light or black light events are popular places to use these products as this type of light makes glow products shine brighter. It is strongly inadvisable to use the fluid in glow sticks as body decoration or make up; as a result there is also specifically designed make up available for this purpose, as well as glowing fluorescent clothing and a wide range of other glow products which can be found from various retailers.
