So, I wish there were maybe some more guidance on Hemway's website on picking the right glitter, but it's kind of hard to photograph, so I'll tell you what I did and how it ended up and what I'd do differently.1. I didn't mix it with paint, I mixed it with glaze. I originally was going to use Rustoleum glitter glaze on top of a colored paint, and the paint I already bought had primer in it. I'm not sure it'd show up if I didn't use the glaze.2. I got the ultra fine mother of pearl to go over a mid-tone pink paint. It looks nice, but it's definitely not dramatic. If there's not light shining directly on the wall, you do not notice the glitter at all. It also tends to show up more green than I'd have preferred. If I had loads of time and money, I'd have done some samples with different glitter colors and sizes and probably used a larger size or I'd have matched the paint color with the glitter color, or maybe have gone with the silver, IDK. If you can, I'd maybe get a few different packs and test them out on a board with the color you want and check it out under the light of the room you're painting.3. I would use more glitter than recommended. I ended up having to do quite a few coats to get a decent coverage of glitter. In my second can of glaze, I added more glitter than the directions recommended and I was much happier.4. Don't forget to mix well! If you think it's mixed, give it a few more stirs.5. I used a small roller and rolled it in V-patterns, blending it in small sections. This got much better results than when my husband tried to roll silver Rustoleum glitter glaze in an up and down pattern (total disaster; also wasn't mixed well enough).All in all, I'm fine with the results, it's a good product, but it would be nice if the company could show some realistic photos of what their glitter looks like against different colors or with a glaze vs in a paint or just offer more design guidance. The other customer photos are great, but I think it caused me to be a bit more subtle than was really my goal since it's hard to judge when there's not a standard baseline.

Used this on my front walkway . Mixed half into paint Painted black then sprinkled more glitter on top lightly. And after drying n rain. You can see the walkway glitter wen lights n sun shines on it. Beautiful to see and walk threw. . Doest rub off wen walk on either.

Great for adding to craft paint

The recommendation is 4 packets per gallon, but I didn't want a super glitter wall so I got 2. At first I got the nice little hints of glitter like I had in my head but then I buffed it, and it's the whole wall. I think 2-3 packets is plenty, not what I had in mind but im not mad.

Only bought one bag for a gallon of paint for a nursery ceiling. Not enough glitter. The seller needs to state how much you will need. Plus they need to be more helpful on how the level of grit needs to be purchased. Whether you need fine or higher level. Would not buy again or suggest product to someone else. Felt like it was a waste of money & time

I'm using the mother-of-pearl glitter with a bright white paint that has a slight blue tint to it on the windows, door jambs and front of the dresser drawers. I really like this idea as I needed a little something for some contrast. I am having to put several coats on but that's due to the paint color but it has worked out fabulously.

The media could not be loaded. I did my own stained concrete floors for my glam room. I mixed with the seal, rather than paint. Hard to get a good photo and there’s a glare in the video, but I love how it turned out. There are little pinkish/purplish permanent glares in the floor from where I wanted more glitter, so I sprinkled it on top of floor seal, then spread it. This kind of “smeared” the glitter almost changing my floor stain color. From then, I stuck with mixing glitter in the seal, lesson learned! Nothing fixed those little spots. They aren’t a big deal, but I’m very anal about the details so it was upsetting. You may be able to see in the corners of the photo. I used about 2 packs.

The media could not be loaded. I had mix reviews about the glitter. But it turned out better than expected not to little not too much. I didnt not have to buff the wall. I bought the paint at home depot and took the glitter to have it mix properly. Turned out amazing . Two coat fir the wallTwo gallon paint 2.5 Oz glitters. Hopefully this help other. The lighter the paint the brighter the sparkles
