Glitterlites questions, answered
Quick answers from our counter staff.
Do I need glue to use Glitterlites?
No. The glitter is already in the paint, so you just mix and apply. There's no loose glitter to clean up.
Do I need to mix it first?
Yes. Mix the bottle well so the glitter is spread evenly before you apply it.
How do I get more sparkle?
Add light layers. Apply thin coats and add more to build up the sparkle, letting each one dry.
Do I need to prep leather first?
Yes. Clean and prep the surface. On leather, use Leather Preparer & Deglazer.
How big is each bottle?
Each bottle is 1 oz. Pick 12 colors in the Glitterlites Kit.
I like glitter. On everything. When the quote "I eat glitter for breakfast" started, everyone I know brought me some type of merchandise with that saying on it.... because I do.
When I opened the jar and dipped in the brush it looked like every other glitter "paint". Then I dragged the brush across the shoe. There's never been a paint like this. This picture is of my test shoe, that's why it's a mess. More importantly, that purple glitter there, is just one coat! (on canvas) ONE COAT! I could not believe my eyes! If you want glitter on your project, this is where you get your glitter coat from! This is where I'm getting all my glitter coats from now on! This is just magical!
Amazing! It's hard to tell others how different our Glitterlites are compared to others glitter paint. Thank you for the detailed review! It is really not the same. You just proved our point!
Nice and sparkling ✨️
I purchased the Princess Purple glitterlites and couldn't be more delighted with a product! The key is to have a light hand and build up the effect you want.
These are the icing to any project. Great tip for others!
Beautiful colors and excellent fixation
I used the glitter paint on a leather wrist band engraved,Itz part of the portal ofcourse.

Fantastic!! Loved how true the purple color is on this paint!
This product is awesome! I like the way how it lies on the shoe smoothly!
The paint covers Nicely!!! Very pleased
Super nice application
Overall the glitter paints are all my favorites. They shine amazing, go on amazing, and just perfect over all
I honestly liked using this paint compared to the regular acrylic paint better and it gave off a nice shine to the shoe. I love it! Thank you so much for making my shoe custom experience filled with fun and I love opening my packages!!!
BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE WITH THE PRODUCTS FROM ANGELUS.
Easy to use, and great color over the purple suede dye
Used it to customize a pair of c=shoes for my granddaughter and she loves them.
You have to take your time and apply multiple coats but it turned out great!
As always, I was very happy with this product. I used it to touch up spots on an all glitter custom superstars.
This product is great for the glitz and Glam Custom shoes I make...I love it!!!!
It was a good item , kind of hard to apply but worked great on a custom pair of 11s.

It's on I guess. Not what I thought. The acrylic paints aren't held with the finisher either. It will crack or chip without the finisher & even chip with the finisher. Also I got the finisher in matte & it ends up looking like a slight gloss which is not at all matte. I ordered the duller as suggested to make it more matte but it leaves streaks.
My shoes are gorgeous!! The glitter is not too gaudy, sparkly but subtle, and will be perfect on my wedding day! I'm so happy!
The product is dope everything as stated ill be buying again
I used these paints to revive some old boots for a costume of mine. They worked GREAT! The glitterlites paint is SUPERB. If you're into costume making or a fashionista looking for a way to jazz up some old shoes this is DEFINITELY the way to go.
I've put this on a couple of items. On the first item, it went on a little thinner than I expected. So I chatted with Sal here at Angelus & he assured me that this was normal & to just apply another coat with long steady strokes. Sure enough, after another coat or 2, my product was fully covered and absolutely beautiful! The best part: little to no flaking and no annoying glitter all over everything. My second product didn't go as well....and this is the ONLY reason that I'm not rating 5 stars. When I opened up the bottle, the product had dried out quite a bit. It had more of a solid consistency and was very difficult to apply. I kept dipping my brush into some water just to hydrate the product again (wasn't sure what else to hydrate it with) and this seemed to work out as a half decent solution. But the end result was nothing as nice as my first product. I don't know why it dried out so quickly. I suggest using the contents within 2-4 weeks of initial opening.
have not had a chance to use the product
Can you airbrush this glitter paint?
Hello There! :D Thank you for reaching out to Angelus Direct :) We do not recommend airbrushing with Angelus Glitterlites, it will clog the nozzle/needle. If you have any other questions feel free to email us at info@angelusdirect.com. Thank you and have a great day :D
if your using a finisher such as the matt finisher would you apply this to the painted areas and over the glitter or just over the normal paint?
Hi Jesse, Thank you for reaching out, apply to the painted areas, Angelus Glitterlites is optional, just keep in mind if you apply a coat of Matte over the Glitter it will look flat unless that is the look you are going for. If you have any other questions feel free to email us at info@angelusdirect.com. Thank you!
