I sandwiched one coat of Shimmer Tammy* between two base coats and a single top coat of e.l.f. Lilac. Most prominent of the glitters under the jelly top are the hex black and gold glitters peeking through. There is a wonderful depth to layering such combos that I'm crazy about...
I've previously swatched Tammy* over a dark base and loved it, so I really wanted to see how it looks over a lighter color and it did not disappoint. It plays so well with both end of the spectrum. The black hex is much more prominent over a lighter color. To be honest I didn't even notice it when I swatched it before and had to do a double take...
A closeup of the gorgeous glitters. The one thing that my camera couldn't capture is the holo. There is a lot of small, hex and bar holo glitter in the mix here. Sadly on the swatches they just appear silver...
A quick reminder of what Tammy* looks like over a dark base. The lighter color come out to play more and the black just disappears. I love that this glitter works so well with both a light and a dark base. There is something to make it special over any polish...
Thanks for looking!

@Lacquer Lockdown, Thank you so much! :)
@nicnacknails, I'm so glad that you like it! Thank you :)
You really paired this glitter well. I am more and more interested in glitter polishes (I really wasn't into them before). A whole new world has opened up to me ;)
ReplyDelete@Marta, Thank you so much! I also had a hard time using glitter before the glue trick. And sandwiching them with a jelly polish is my favorite! Makes them work appropriate and not to mention interesting in an instant :)
