Bungie said that they will make them buyable in the kiosk with glimmer, but this one-time use consumables crap needs to stop, I don't want to feel restricted on what I can put on my character, and this is not how shaders work.
In D1 shaders felt special like emblems as you can really collect them, and adorn them as your own, but now they just lost that magic in my opinion because shaders are not like emblems.
(I put this video up because I think this guy clearly summarizes and explains the whole issue with them.)

Not exactly sure how this is all going to work, sounds like I will need to run around the Tower more than I’d like to though. Always thought that keeping a collection of found/earnt, shaders, much like exotic or emote collections, though it simply costs glimmer to apply, plus add an “apply all” option. Having to run around for no reason seems to be rather popular with the dev team at times.
