Jessica Iridescent Eye and first try with acrylic paints

After reading so much about Chanel's Peridot, I was excited when I learnt of the Iridescent Eye dupe from Jessica as there was no way I was gonna pay >US$20 for a polish. Unfortunately, it was before OPI Just Spotted The Lizard was released, otherwise I would have opted for that instead as it was easier to purchase in my country than Jessica.

In any case, I got it from Ninja Polish (along with a couple of other polishes :p) and it is truly a one coater (great for stamping) with a strong greenish tinge which is even more obvious in the pic after the jump.

This is the set of brushes that I got. The acrylic paint was a just cheap set from an art store.

My freehand painting leaves much to be desired and if you thought this was bad, my other hand was way worse (-_-)" But still, it was fun and at least you could wipe the acrylic paint off if you mess up so I guess I just gotta practice, practice, practice!

Note: I am not affliated to Ninja Polish but thought I would link to them in case there are other people like me who are not in U.S. and require international shipping :)
