Wacky Laki: Shimmer Erica and Carol

I hope you have been enjoying all the Shimmer polish swatches that I have been showing here for the past few weeks. Erica and Carol are the last two new ones that I have to show you, but it is certainly not the last you'll be seeing of them. They are very versatile for layering, nail art and my most recent obsession of stamping over glitter. These two beauties are nothing at all alike and I think it really goes to show the amazing range of the Shimmer polish line. I'm just hoping some day I'll see one named Anutka, but while I dream of that, take a look at the swatches... :)

Shimmer Erica (over Barielle Holiday Madness)
A clear base with green, gold and holographic glitter among others. The overall look is a gorgeous peridot green which I'm crazy about. I think I may have drooled a little when I first saw bottle shots of it and it didn't disappoint in person. I layered it over an olive green to compliment the color. My next attempt will be over a pearl base as my birthstone is pearl and my boyfriend's is peridot so I always like to mix the two. Yes, after thirteen years together I'm still that dork. The glitter is easy to apply and provides good layering coverage in just one coat. These swatches are with a top coat...

Shimmer Carol (over Nicole by OPI I Sea You and Raise You)
A clear base with gold, copper, blue, black and holographic glitter just to name a few. This is one of my favorite Shimmer polishes that I own. I think the color mix is incredible. It would look amazing layered over just about anything. For today's swatch I layered it over a sky blue which I really like as it make the black glitter stand out. It does blends with some of the blue hex glitter in this polish so to see that look at the bottle shots at the top. This is one coat of glitter plus a top coat over the base color...

What is it about the black glitter that I love so much?...
