 This was a blue on blue glitter-groovy mani!  I used a dusty blue StrangeBeautiful for my base color (two coats).  It seems to me to look close to Illamasqua Force.  I don't think I've worn Force yet...but then again, my bottle has drastically changed colors since I bought it.  Weird.

 I used a coat of Shimmer Polish in Jenny over top, then followed with Gelous and Sephora X top coat.

 I loved this mani.  It was one of those where the more you look at it, up close, the better it gets!

 Shimmer Polish makes some super beautiful blends, I must say.  Love!

 I'm tired of being back-logged on pictures and posts, so voila, here is a catch up post!  This first one is a dark grayish green StrangeBeautiful topped with OPI Simmer and Shimmer.  One coat of each.

 Below is Butter London Jack the Lad.  I believe it was just two coats, but don't quote me on that.

 Much prettier in the bottle, under the beaming lights at Nordstorm, but still lovely on the nail.

 Next up is Illamasqua Creator at two coats.  I freaking love this one, no surprise there.

 I'm not sure why I decided to include the above blurry picture, but we'll just move right along and get to some that are in focus.

 Creator has tiny silver particles that resemble flakes.  They are irregular in shape.  Also, there are very occasional holo glitters (see that one blue twinkle in the bottle above?) and medium sized silver hexes (I think).

 You can see a silver hex on the very edge of my middle finger below.  Great formula, as always.

 And now for the voting day nails!  I used a coat of RBL Teal and then topped it with a coat of Shimmer Polish Nicole.

 I really loved wearing this because it was so festive and pretty.  It wore well for a good three days, too.  Yeah, that's "good" for me.  Anything past two days is good in my book.

 I love the glitters in Nicole - the shapes, the colors, the ratios, the dispersion.  Love, love, love it!  I used a combination of dabbing and painting motions to apply it.  Shimmer polishes can be found here, although it appears the shop is closed until Nov. 26.

 I may have saved the best for last, which is Pahlish Toxic and Timeless!

 I used two coats and this mani also wore for a respectable three days.  I finished the mani with Gelous, Instant Artificials, and then Butter London's quick dry top coat.  It was perfectly smooth and glassy.

 I had more big yellow hexes on my right hand, probably because I didn't take the time to shake my bottle super thoroughly and it had settled some when I grabbed it to do my mani.  Nonetheless, I absolutely adore the result, the polish, and it lived up to my every grand expectation!

 This is my first real Shimmer Polish success!  I really love this.

 I started with a coat of the Finger Paints black polish (I'm forgetting the name at the moment).

 Then, I added a coat of Natalie.  I believe I finished with Gelous and then Butter London's top coat.  It was not completely smooth, but very close to it.

 I'm sure this would look really cool over lots of colors!  I suppose my default base has become black because it makes everything pop out all dramatic like.  :)

 This reminds me of some cosmic acid trip or something.  It's so lively and zany!

 I recently ordered a bunch of Shimmer polishes from Etsy here.  I couldn't take it any longer, seeing such pretty pictures of them on other blogs!  All the glitter!  All the shimmer!  I love.

 This is two coats of Alice over two coats of Orly Shine.  I used Gelous and Dior top coat over that, but it was not smooth yet.  I ended up taking off this mani after a few hours because my right thumb got messed up and I was frustrated with a few other little things, but I'm definitely going to be trying Alice again in the future.  I don't know why, but I often end up disliking glitters over foils.  It's something to do with the appearance of texture.
