Polish Days: Bling

Collection: All Night Stars (2003 Winter)

We all know that the yearend festivities are usually showy and sparkly. But this month’s topic was also chosen because Hannah, the amazing lady who organizes the Polish Days, has gotten engaged recently! Her new ring (and fiancé) inspired her to call us to go blingtastic!

Just a year ago, I hardly had any glitter polishes. Estessimo TiNS The Neptune was probably the first full out glitter I bought. Since I had not tried it yet, I figured this would be a good time.

Estessimo TiNS Swan Lake

Collection: Ballet Dancer (2005 Fall)

Greyish-blue with teal-purple duochrome shimmer. This polish is a stunning little chameleon under different lights. The base is not very noticeable in real life as it is packed with fine shimmer that steals the show. The picture above is the closest I can get to capturing the base color.

The teal shimmer usually appears in the shade and under artificial lights. It’s very pretty but I wondered where the duochrome was when I painted my nails at night!
