Draft:Sparkling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sparkling observed in 50-micron hollow glass particles in homogeneous isotropic turbulence.

Sparkling is a characteristic of materials, both solids and liquids, in which numerous points of light are reflected or refracted, creating an appearance of brilliance and movement.

Carbonated beverages are often marketed as "sparkling", such as sparkling water and sparkling wine. In liquids, sparkling is often associated with effervescence, the escape of gas from an aqueous solution and the foaming or fizzing that results from that release.[1]

Culturally and in fictional works, sparkling is often associated with magic.

The use of sparkling eye shadow can confuse eye-tracking devices.[2]
