How to reduce the size of the glyphicon in boostrap

Question

I am using a glyphicon icon and it is used inside a button. But the size of the icon is too big for the button. How can I reduce the size of the glyphicon ? I already used small tag and it didin't work.

You can use inline style format to adjust font size for specific glyphicon elements

 <button>
       <span style="font-size:12px" class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span> Search
   </button>
