Brilliant and smells good
First, it smells minty to me, I like that! The sine and luster is beautiful and a little goes a long way. I used this with midge pudge to seal some wooden peg dolls and it provided a subtle hint of sparkle. You can actually control the amount of sparkle by the amount you apply to your project. That makes it super versatile! You can use it straight from the tube or mix it j to other mediums. I’ve made iridescent cardstock, jewelry, clay etc. I expect this tube will last me over a year with steady use. I’m extremely pleased with this and will buy it again!

Nice change to the ordinary paint colors.
I was pleasantly surprised how well this product worked! I added it in equal parts to my paint. It gave a great iridescent shine to my colors. I would highly recommend! I hope this helps :)

A Fun Change
I liked the way this medium stayed liquid and the ease with which it spread my paint. However, it is necessary to either use it all over the painting or carefully varnish, because your surface is patchy if you only use it on some areas.

Iridescent, fantastic, beautiful
The iridescent is fantastic! Iridescent is not supposed to be glittery or too sparkly. There is some sparkly glitz. The shine and the glitz are amazing

Exceeded my expectations - Honestly so pretty
I’ve used this product repeatedly for multiple projects. It’s very easy to use and mixes well with color. The texture is very fine and lays evenly. The shimmer can be applied lightly for a subtle effect or layered on for intensity. After reading reviews, I was expecting a thick goop but it’s surprisingly thin, almost like acrylic paint mixed with a thinning medium. Dries quickly and easy to clean. Would highly recommend.

Makes Everything Shiny
Great medium for making any paint shimmery. Easy to mix and works when just painting or added to a pour

Fantastic Iridescent Results! Smooth Blending!
I absolutely love this stuff! I go through 3 tubes per month! It blends smoothly and easily into a variety of brands of acrylic paint, and does not get chunky unless well past the expiration date and dried out. Awesome product.

great stuff!
I've never had a bad experience with Liquitex products. this stuff was thicker than I expected, about the same as paint.. it's loaded with "pigment" or iridescence and the iridescent flakes are a bit chunky (not clumpy though) so I wouldn't recommend for any kind of sprayer but the chunkiness makes for a real good sparkle.

Happy beginner
Not used it yet, but looking forward to results when I do. Good value for money

Very nice product by a good company!
I've ordered and used Liquitex products for a very long time now, and I can recommend this company for quality.

pas vraiment irisé
ce médium est très liquide et donne une très très faible lueur opalescente lorsque mélangé à 50/50 avec n'importe quelle couleur Liquitex Basics.. je préfère le médium normal pour la transparence et ajouter du mica argenté si je veux un vrai effet..

I like this for brightening up dark paintings
I like how I can take a dark or dull color and with a few light strokes of a brush the color(s) become a few shades brighter. The only thing I don't like is the metals make my enhanced colors look too grainy.
