Let's compare the iconic Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter 'Grind' with the Merzy PE3 Spa for a moment. Price: Urban Decay Grind - $29 // Merzy PE3 Spa - $9 Urban Decay Grind features nano-sized shimmer particles that sparkle in tiny fragments, creating a mesmerizing effect like scattered light. Merzy, on the other hand, combines fine glitter particles with larger, bolder ones that reflect light like mirrors depending on the angle. (Both are beautiful in their own right - it's like comparing apples and oranges, so I don't want to pick a favorite.) While the glitter particles differ between Urban Decay and Merzy, they share a common ground in their delicate pink base color that shows up beautifully. This similarity made me want to recommend both products!

However, there's a slight drawback with Merzy. The included applicator has sparse, thin bristles that actually make it a bit tricky to apply evenly. It's a bit annoying each time I use it, but considering Merzy's affordable price, I can somewhat overlook this issue. Also, the Merzy glitter is more challenging to remove compared to Urban Decay.

When removing glitter, I first use an eye makeup remover, then follow up with a gentle, affordable eye cream as if it were a cleansing cream. Eye creams are typically low-irritation, and while wiping it off, it feels like it's nourishing the skin even as it cleanses.
