Make Up Store Tanja (Shimmer 101)
I wasn’t very interested in this shade when I first picked it up to look at it in the store, but then the light hit the bottle at just the right angle and holy wow!
This is a dark greyish green base with, mainly, green microglitter suspended in it. I think there is an element of duochrome in some of the glitter particles too, however, because sometimes you can catch a glimpse of a little red in it as well.
The shimmer effect in this is very, very subtle, almost completely muted by the base colour. But then, like at the store, the light hits it from just the right direction and suddenly the sparkles appear! Honestly, that’s half the charm of this polish. Unfortunately, this also makes it quite tricky to catch the effect in photos. Pictures just don’t seem to do this polish justice at all! (That’s why sucky flash photo is included.)
I needed two coats this time, but with careful and methodical application, one generous coat might well be enough to do the trick.
