If you're like me, growing up in the late '90s and early 2000s meant you weren't ready to leave the house until you embellished yourself head to toe with a little glitter gel. You know, the colorful pots or roller tubes full of the candy-scented, glittery goo. As an adult, I still have an affinity for anything glittery and am always looking for ways to work it into my day-to-day looks, going-out attire and, of course, Halloween costumes.

These days, makeup-centric Halloween costumes reign supreme and they're the perfect time and place to work in a little extra sparkle. And with that, comes a need for brighter and bolder glitter (the kind that makes the stuff from our childhood pale in comparison). Enter: Lemonhead.LA, the brand that has answered our sparkly prayers with #glitterforadults. The L.A.-based brand has been crafting gorgeous glitter that can be worn from head-to-toe since 2015 and, quite frankly, it's some of the best you can get.

In addition to the roster of beautiful glitter shades you can purchase on the brand's website and an expanding array of other vendors, Lemonhead.LA also gives you the opportunity to create your own custom shade online. I received a little sneak peek at their headquarters to see what goes into making the custom creations and even got to mix my own glitter. Let's take a BTS look at what it's like to create custom glitter.
