Strawberry Lemonade - Emily de Molly Crystal Cavern

I'm completely failing to capture the prettiness of this nail polish so maybe you have to rely on descriptions at the end!

[Emily de Molly's Crystal Cavern]

As you can see from the bottle, this is from Emily de Molly and it's Crystal Cavern. It's a pretty pink polish with a very visible gold shimmer. But damn does my camera hates taking photo of flashes of gold so you get only a hint of it here. As always, easy to apply and gorgeous to look at.

Glitter Glamour - ulta3 Orchid, Shimmer Karen

I bought this during a blog sale, and I have to say, I love it.

Top: 2 coats of Shimmer Karen]

This is Karen, from Shimmer Polish. The polish is so heavy with glitter in a clear base, that I've no idea how to begin to describe the glitter. Just take it as chock-full of tiny hex and square glitter, in silver, purple and holo. It's magnificent! At two coats, the coverage is pretty solid, as you can see. I used ulta3 Orchid as the base, because I didn't want to build to opacity using Karen and I also wanted a darker purple for it to contrast against.

Here, you can see how Karen looks at just one coat.

The consistency was great, and I loved the glitter mix. Very, very nice results.
