CHARMING MAY Nail Sequins Mirror Effect Paillette Nail Flakies 0.2g (Chameleon Flakes)

Over all the product worked as shown. The powder amount in each container varied wildly. 3 of them were full as every other chrome powder I have purchased from other sellers arrived. The other five containers came filled carrying from less than 1/4 full to half way.I sent an email to the seller on Thursday and today being Tuesday have yet to receive a response. The quality is perfect just not a consistent amount in each container.**update** up to 3 stars now.I was contacted by the seller. They explained and showed me pictures of how much should be in each container as per their description, but I still feel even though (each container is filled by hand) that a container this large should be at least half way full not just enough to barely cover the bottom of the container as the image they provided me. To nitpick over 0.3g or 0.5g to 1.0g I find hard to handle.Again this product is of great quality and the finished product is great just not keen on how filled or not filled and varying the quantities of the powder is in each product.

I absolutely love these! They have other powders so I will be replacing my other brands with this one. They apply so smoothly, you have to use basically nothing to get the desired effect and unlike my other powders, including the 20 dollar single pot brands, it is so fine that the finish is absolutely mirror like instead of somewhat glittery like many turn out to be. I also like that when applied with a small makeup sponge there is virtually no fallout and waste of product! Ugh, I love them.

I was a little skeptical because I purchased a few bad ones (from other companies) before. I must say I was satisfied with the outcome. The finish has a nice mirror effect compared to the others I’ve tried that had a more of a glittery finish. Only downfall is I wish they sold them in bigger sizes but you only need a little bit per nail!!!! Definitely will purchase again.

These powders are really gorgeous. They were kind of a spur-of-the moment purchase, but I really love them. Over blue nail polish, the blue-green one has a gorgeous peacock effect, and I used an array of the others over dark burgundy polish for a really fun, multitonal jewel tone look.They're very easy to use, applied with fingers or the applicators that come with them. FYI I attempted to apply them using regular nail polish and top coat, and gel polish with a regular UV wipe-off top coat - neither one worked. You HAVE to use a no-wipe UV gel top coat as a base coat or the powder won't adhere properly, and you have to use it on top or the powder won't retain its metallic look and will just look like a regular metallic nail polish (metallic but kind of grainy, it won't keep that cool foil look).

They are beautiful colors and look amazing BUT they dull down considerably once you put a top coat on. I’ve tried no wipe top coat, regular gel top coat, a mega shine polish top coat, even a quick dry polish top coat. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong (I’m new to the nail powder game. I do base coat, color x2, no wipe top coat, buff powder, final layer of no wipe top coat) or if the powders are of low quality. Also, some pots are filled to the brim and some are not even halfway full.

I've tried the gamut of nail powders available on Amazon. All hoping that the next one would be better than the last. Charming May was my first batch. No other ones have exceeded these powders yet. Too bad they don't make a laser holo one, because all the holos I've tried so far are horrible and can't find one like they use in a salon. Anyway, these Charming May powders are heavily pigmented, you only need a tiny tiny bit to get the effect or you can do multiple layers for an even deeper intense effect. All the little pots I got were pretty full, they will last a long time.Tips for those who aren't familiar with using these powders:You can use them over regular OR gel polish. But!! For the optimal adhesion, you must not wait till the color/top coat layer is fully dry. The key I've found is to pat the powder on while the layer is *almost* fully dry (for regular polish) or a 30 second gel cure. No more than 30 secs for gel!! Dab the powder on for coverage, then go back and press down and smooth it out and lightly burnish it with your finger tip. It becomes like metal, so shiny and smooth!! Wait till fully dry THEN apply your no wipe gel top coat and cure 60 secs x2 for a nice hard finish.Instructions say to put it on the top coat, then apply final top coat, but that isn't necessary. You can, but then you need 2 layers of top coat. I personally don't like thick gel nails, so I only put it on my base color then finish with the top coat.Note!! If using a regular non gel top coat, these powders WILL dull down a bit. So beware of that. These are meant to be used with gel top coats for the maximum effect.Done properly, these nail powders are just AMAZING.

Really love the effect it gives, easy to use, and just simply beautiful love it 😍

I was not very happy with this product. I found that it is very easy to use, and for those who do not know how to use it there are instructions included. People want to have with this is that it did not adhere to the surface of the nails. When you use the UV top coat, it should adhere to it, but it did not. I also went to the nail salon with the product and had my favorite nail tech try it and received fairly similar results. So I had to give this product a rather low score, which is unfortunate as I had high hopes for it.
