Let me start by saying these neon pigment powders definitely deliver on vibrant, eye-catching colors. Under UV light, most shades pop beautifully - perfect for festival looks or edgy nail art. I used them to create a sunset ombre design and the color payoff was impressive.

The powder texture is super fine, making application smooth when mixed with gel polish. I achieved that trendy 'powder dip' effect by sprinkling it over wet polish. However, as other reviewers noted, this isn't actually acrylic dip powder - you'll need to mix it with other products.

Biggest disappointment? The glow effect is strictly UV-reactive (not glow-in-the-dark). My purple and pink shades shone brightest under blacklight, while some colors barely reacted. Also be warned - the jars are TINY (about quarter-sized). At this price point, I expected more product.

Pro tip: Store these upright! The powders tend to clump if knocked over. Great for: UV party nails, artsy accents. Not great for: standalone dip manicures or darkroom glow effects.
