Press Sample

The theme for the next Shimmer Me Box is April Showers and its release is on 3/30, at Native War Paints. The guest this month is Ever After, who has created a cornflower blue polish with shimmer.




Native War Paints Cheery Cherry Blossom
Light pink crelly with blue shimmer, hot pink holo glitter, pink holo glitter and green holo glitter






Colors By Llarowe Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend
Prismatic holo with white shimmer and silver ultra micro glitters.






Tux Let's Dew Spring
Medium Teal with green holo glitter and contrasting purple shimmer.

This is much more of a teal than my camera was able to capture. The polish is not this blue. :)




Ever After Singing In The Rain
a denim leaning slate blue with white a blue shimmer and a touch of holo





All photos show two coats with topcoat. The formula was fluid on all but the Ever After polish, I found it to be thick with drag in some spots, so I added a few drops of thinner for my second coat.

I hope you've enjoyed the review and photos. Will you be picking up the April Showers box?

Shimmer Me Box: Good Luck Charms/Symbols

Press Sample

The next Shimmer Me Box is Good Luck Charms/Symbols and is launching March 2 at http://nativewarpaints.com/. The box with guest, Femme Fatale, is packed with four shimmering polishes.




Femme Fatale Wishbone
a pale lavender with grey undertones and a soft teal blue to purple shimmer
Two coats.






Tux Lucky Bug
a light purple crelly with dark blue ucc flakies, red shimmer, and red holo glitter
Two coats.






Colors By Llarowe Elephant Walk
an elephant grey base with gold to green shimmer and blue micro flake
Two coats. Might have gotten away with one, it is fairly opaque.






Native War Paints Mint to Be Lucky
minty green with blue green shimmer
Two coats. This is on the sheerer side, but I tend to paint thick coats and vnl is not noticeable in person.





The formulas of each were fantastic and easy to apply. See photos for number of coats, all were topped with KBShimmer topcoat.

I also did a gradient with the two greens and stamped over it. I quite like how it turned out!



I can't say I have a lucky charm or symbol, but I do carry a couple of coins my parents left for me. Do you have a lucky charm or symbol?
