Default Lumiere lusters

I was delighted to receive my super-sparkly package of goodies from Jetage studio - but I'm finding it a bit hard to work with.

I've used pixie dust before without a problem. But! These flakes seem to stick to the hot bead initially, then float off up the ventilation duct whilst I'm melting my clear to encase.

I'm starting with a hot but solid bead, rolling it in flakes quite firmly to encourage them to stick, then rolling the bead above the flame to keep it warm. It seems well-covered and sparkly to start with - but by the time I have a good gob of clear to wipe over it, it's shed like a tree in autumn, and I end up with just some sparkly dots.

Can anyone please offer advice? Thanks.
