Shimmer Polish: Melissa, Jennifer, Stephanie, Tracy and Jenny...

Friday, August 24, 2012
Just as promised, I have more Shimmer polish pretties for you today. These are all created by the sweet and super talented Cindy. In case you missed yesterday's post, make sure to check it out here to see more Shimmer polishes. These are gorgeous, incredibly sparkly and all very unique. I'm already dreaming of the glitter jelly sandwiches and the gradient tips manicures I'll be trying with these, but for now take a look at the swatches...


All these polishes have a great formula that does not clump or drag. The glitter spreads easily and evenly. I used one generous coat of glitter over a coordinating base color and followed that up with a nice top coat. Most of these can also be worn on their own at about three coats. Can't go wrong either way...

A violet glitter with gold hex glitters mixed in. There is also some red sprinkled in and a few flashes of blue and green...

The incredible thing about the Shimmer polishes is that they seem to have nearly every color in each bottle yet somehow they are all so unique and from afar have a distinct main color.
