The paper appears to be actual glitter, however, it is merrily a glitter effect that instead looks patchy. Not happy about it, but happy they allowed a refund.
Imagine if you had an open container of glitter, mentally strip out all the sparkle and you have tiny flakes or bits that are all the same size -- the glitter is suggested not actual. I read the reviews, so I'm not disappointed, so I just want to make sure people know.
What good is this paper? It's perfect background paper if you need bright yet understated texture. This can also be for silver-like accents such as photo mats -- a layer of gloss acrylic medium would increase the ritz factor. I find this silver version more useful than the gold because it suggests brushed silver texture without the bumps. I punched and die cut some stars which were nice. I also did some 60s style flowers for a groovy art journal page that were retro-disco without being glitter bright.
This paper is not a paper for everyone, sort of a specific need. I'm o.k. with having it in my collage stash. If you want super sparkle, there are some actual glitter papers out there that dance and do the whole song and dance.
