I purchased this luster dust in Nu Silver and couldn't be happier. I used this on decorated royal icing cookies and used the technique where you mix the luster dust with everclear and brush it on the hardened icing. In the little container, the color doesn't look very bright or shiny, but if you use this technique, you'll see super shiny results that look beautiful. If this was any shinier, you'd be able to see your reflection. Great stuff, would definetly recommend.
