SHIMMER POLISH: Karen & Alice

Shimmer Polish Karen and Alice

HELLO citizens of Lacquer Land! Today I have the 2nd part of my Shimmer Polish swatches. Missed the 1st part? HAVE NO FEAR, you can find it here! :] After the jump, you will find Shimmer Polish glitterbombs galore! What are you waiting for!

Here are the 2 I will be reviewing for you today:

First up is Karen:

Shimmer Polish Karen over LVX Azalea

(Sorry about the first picture! It didn't seem that blurry on my phone D;!!!) Shimmer Polish Karen is has an aspect that a lot of Shimmer Polish has that I like! She has the ability to create a glitter polish focused on one color mix and then adds a little bit of contrasting color that pops beautifully! I hope that makes sense haha, I reworded that like 10 times. For example, Karen at first glance looks like pink/rose gold glitter polish but thrown into the mix are red and iridescent blue flashing glitters. I love it!

I did 2 coats of Karen over LVX Azalea, no top coat. It had the consistent, great application that I'm used to and dry time was good also. No issues :]

Shimmer Polish Alice

Pretty little silver glitterbomb, these kind of polishes never get old to me! Looks like a disco ball on my nails. Alice is a mix of silver and silver holographic glitter. Her description mentions stars in the mix, but I didn't notice or grab any. I'm not a shaped glitter fan ;] but they're in there sparingly!

I did 3 coats of Alice, no undies or top coat. This polish would also look great over a color, I enjoy the look of it on its own :] No issues with this one again, great application and dry time.
