Beauty Bigbang - Iridescent Chameleon Flakes (J2443-12A) Review

I first reviewed some Beauty Bigbang items a few months ago in this post, but if you're unfamiliar with the company, they're an online beauty retailer that sells nail supplies, cosmetics, and hair products. They offer free shipping worldwide with a delivery time of 2 to 4 weeks, and they accept both credit card and Paypal payments.


The second powder I received this time was these Iridescent Chameleon Flakes, J2443-12A:

These are unicorn skin or mermaid flakes that have an iridescent effect. They come in 12 different colors at $5.99 apiece for 0.2 grams and an applicator brush.

I used regular polish and topcoat to apply these, but they can be used with gel polish as well. These can also be left as larger flakes or buffed into a smoother finish, and the color of the flakies will change depending upon the base color you use.

Over white or other light colored bases, the flakes will shift between pastel green and a pinkish purple, as shown here:

However, over black and other darker colors, the flakes become more defined and show up as deeper purple, greens, and a coppery red.

I actually reviewed one of the other iridescent powders from this set in my last Beauty Bigbang review, and I loved them so much that I wanted to try this color, too! These powders offer so much versatility since they shift differently based on your base color, so they're perfect for a variety of different manis (last time I used the iridescent flakes for these dragon scales and unicorn manis!).
