Ugh. Had the same problems with the Peridot as with the Black Pearl -- the color is a gorgeous iridescent (Peridot is primarily a greenish-gold to me, but I think different people see different things in it). The polish quality, however, is terrible. It chips almost instantly, and because the brush strokes stay visible instead of disappearing the way they're supposed to, any attempts to repair them are obvious, so the entire nail has to be redone. I won't be buying anymore light-colored Chanel frosts; the colors may be beautiful, but I'll go with the $8 Essie knockoffs instead of paying $25+ a bottle for something that's so cheaply formulated that it chips the minute you touch your hair or pick up a fork.
