Shimmer Spam Take 3

Shimmer polishes are definitely one of those brands that look so much better in real life than in photos.  Every time I put one on I'm reminded of this and I find I get quite a lot of compliments when wearing these. 

I've seen so many swatches of Shimmer Polishes and really none of them have wowed me and it's not because those ladies aren't taking great photos, it's just because they don't look as awesome in photos for some reason. If you've never tried a Shimmer polish and you like glitters, then I highly recommend trying one or two out in your favorite colour combinations, because they really are very pretty.

Fanny - Two coats over Ulta3 Mulberry.




Jennifer - Two coats of Gelicious Thankful.




Karen - One coat over Ulta3 Violet Rumble




Kim - One coat over Dance Legend Thermo #161




Mary - Once coat over Dance Legend Thermo #170




Tiffany - Once coat over Dance Legend Thermo #174.




Glitter over thermal polishes = amazingly awesome - I highly recommend any combination. but saying that, I think my favourite out of this lot was Jennifer over Gelicious Thankful (maybe it's the gold glitters in there that just suckered me in)
Shimmer polishes are available from Cindy at the Shimmer Polishes site

  2. The glitter really makes these polishes stand out!

  3. Thanks to you I just ordered 5 shimmers and the topcoat. I mean, if you say we all should have at least one Shimmer Polish, then we should indeed. And I couldn't leave it at one..... I spend a few (!) hours deciding which ones I really need. Comparing different shades on different blogs, well, you probably know what I mean.

  4. Maybe this is a double comment, so in that case, I'm sorry.
    I just ordered 5 shimmers and the topcoat. I mean, if you say we al should have at least one Shimmer polish, well, then I guess we should. But I couldn't leave it at one. It was hard to choose and decide which one(s) I really want (need?). I spend a few (!) hours comparing different shades, on different blogs etcetera. You all probably know what I mean.....
