Chenkou Craft 3000PCS 1 Box Gold Round Flatback Half Pearls Bead Loose Beads Gem (Light Pink Half Ball)

I've bought two sets of these - one in December which was lovely (and the reason I purchased a second set) and a set in February 2021. Unfortunately they appear to have changed the product, swapping out the original lovely pearl lustre finish for a cheap and nasty shiny rainbow finish which is not at all pearl-like. I have included a picture of the previous set (lovely) and the new version. Very disappointed and won't be purchasing again. On a side note - as other reviewers have said (which I read too late!) be extremely careful opening the box, it is almost impossible to tell which side is "Up" and the pearls go EVERYWHERE and need hours of sorting.

Most of them are the small ones

The beads are not appropriate for nail art. After just a couple of days almost all the beads wore off and are not shiny anymore, exposing the dull colours underneath - see pictures attached.

The package arrived undamaged, but all the beads inside were lose and all mixed up. Lid had come undone. Was meant for a pressie, couldn’t give like that, and no way was I going to sort them!!!!

These beads are good BUT they give you very Few of the Larger sizes. I bought this just for the larger sizes , but there wasn't enough even to finish one small project - so i don't recommend these unless you need very very tiny beads - there are plenty of the tiny ones , but they Are very very small . Terrible value for money for me personally.
