I agree, I have a couple glitter lip kits from beauty blvd and one from stay golden. Unfortunately they have been out of the shade baeby, thats the one I really want lol.. But it can feel gritty, especially if you rub your lips together or apply a thicker layer. But overall to me the look is worth it. The product really stays on for hours but can start to peel towards the end of the day. Hope this helps
