This is a new to me material and just got some in today. At first was very impressed with the colors, especially the Ice Blue Pearl! It throws several different pearl colors but predominantly in a purple'ish/blue'ish pearl. Very cool! I got 3 colors, top to bottom: Ice Blue Pearl, Flo Yellow Pearl, Flo Chartreuse. I will say that the Flo Chart comes off as more of a Gold than Treuse.........

For the material review..... i give it a C+. It only gets the + because of how good it actually looks. Have not tested it in water yet to see the action, but it is so thin and whispy, i can only imagine it will have a decent amount of action as long as you do not over do it as a tail. I was sure hoping for better. It looks AWSOME, but is a pain to work with so far. Maybe it will get better with practice. Not so user friendly and makes for a lot of waste pieces that i could not use. I am covered in pearlish hair!!! So is the floor and my wastebasket. Would work excellent as an added flash color since it is co thin, but not so sure about the Wing/Tail potential.
Just my 2 pennies.
Man o man does the blue pearl LOOK great. I will practice more and hopefully get a little better at it. -: Russ
