Fine-ness of the particles? Does anyone know how fine the particles of glitter are in this kit?

They are super fine- perfect for professional effects and glitter coverage. Not for kid crafts.

The most I can offer is this. I've cured loose glitter with an LED lamp gel set before and it slightly "burned" the glitter (or seemed to), but it still worked well enough. For a few cents you could give it a try, but I think it should work fine. If the tape DOES have a reaction with the lamp you can just do a full gel manicure, design something with the tape and cover in regular top coat.If you'd like I can try tomorrow since I have some of these tapes and a gel set.

My guess would be probably not. This glitter is very, very fine, and I don't know if you would get the effect you want. It might look more like a solid color. It is sooooo fine that it is difficult to get off areas you don't want it. I only work on it when I can take my craft work outside because I don't want the fine glitter all over everywhere. It's beautiful on handmade cards however!

I'm not sure if it's non-toxic and/or lead-free. And if you use glue and then put sparkle over the glue, it won't lose shine. But if you put clear glue over the shine, it will slightly dull it, but not a lot. I used this glitter for a resin project where I needed to add glitter to the back for a background so you could see it from the front. I used about 5 coats of acrylic gloss varnish and it still has a nice sparkle from the back (even though the project wasn't intended to be seen from the back). I love these glitters (although I don't really have any cheap glitters to compare them to).

Much, much more glitter in the MS vials. My daughter has been using these to refill the small vials since Oct and she has 3/4ths of the MS vial left. These are great for nails.

I would estimate that they have about triple the amount found in the nail glitter containers. And this glitter works great for manicures!!

It is powder glitter, & they sadly come in very small quantities. You're better off buying glitter from a craft store or dollar store.

It depends. The martha stewart glitters come in a huge color assortments (even though some are just a mix of other colors). The containers' size is small enough for the kidergartener's hand to hold and shake. However bear in mind that MS glitter is very very fine. So I'm not sure how that will translate in getting the glitters off their face, hair and clothes. Other option is to google spectra glitters. Theirs is more economical and larger in size (0.04 hexagon i believe) and the colors are brilliant, although less color options as compared to MS glitter. But being bigger in size may makes it easier to dust off.

I don't think so, there is nothing glittery or shimmery about this dust. It looks like ashes. I would look for disco dust for your lemonade

I would say these flakes are a little too large for a snow globe. You might try white glitter instead. Hope this helps!

Hi! I loved it! I sprinkled over my colored polish, let it set for a few minutes, then put a coat of clear over it & it lasted over 5 days - & in GOOD shape. No beads coming off or anything. I was surprised.

yeah -- most of them are opaque. You might find one or two that won't work as well -- the glittery ones are mostly just glitter and clear, but some have glitter in a brightly colored glue.

To me it is fine but if you get it and it's foo shiny get some baby powder and rub some through it! It literally helps! Don't use a lot though!

No, Some look like the same but there is a regulare and then there is a glitter or some other type. If you read the discription it tells you what types are in the set.

The particles are not regular enough for them to apply a normal grit rating, but they are sorted by maximum size in microns, I think. At any rate, I think the rough equivalents are Coarse: 250, Fine: 600, X-Fine: 1200. There is an XX-Fine, but even that doesn't get you anywhere close to 8000. If you want a finish like an 8000+ waterstone with diamonds, you have to get the paste and spread it on a substrate of your own. I'm sure I've seen diamond paste as fine as .5 micron, and it may go finer than that; I don't think they can bond particles that fine to the DMT plates.
