As I’ve shared in my previous post (here), I was amongst the winners of a Shimmer Polish giveaway, wooohooooo! =))) I got two of her amazingly beautiful polishes, Cleo and Courtney, as a reward:

Today I’m showing you the second one of the two Shimmer polishes, Courtney:

I love love love glitters! But I have to admit upon looking at both of these polishes, I immediately fell completely in love with Cleo, but was a bit unsure of Courtney because of all the different colored glitter, which are in a clear base. I painted two layers of polish and was immediately taken over by it =))) See for yourself! ;)

Even though this polish was somewhat out of the box for me, I ended up liking it so much, there were days I picked it over Cleo!! =P And it looks so good with only two layers, it didn’t bother me at all that my nail line was peeking from under it here and there (otherwise I would paint more layers to cover it all completely up)! =)) So there you go, Shimmer polishes are definitely amongst the prettiest polishes I own. And I have plenty. Really. A lot!

You can order her polishes on her website, there are so many to choose from, and they are super gorgeous!! Be sure to check them out!

Shimmer Polish Giveaway Winner – ME! #1 Cleo

I am a winner of a giveaway??? =D I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw a post from Shimmer Polish (http://www.shimmyshimmer.com/) on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/ShimmerPolish) that Colorful Harmony is among the winners of her giveaway. I thought for sure it had to be someone else with the same name, I’ve never won anything before (oh, I’ve tried!! =D). And now it turned out to be true!!! ^ ^

I owe a huge huge apology to Shimmer Polish for not posting this post back in November (!) when I got two of her amazingly beautiful polishes, Cleo and Courtney:

The fact is I haven’t posted anything since November 2013! =( Thank god for some holidays to make up for the lost time…
Today I’m showing you the first of the two Shimmer polishes, Cleo:

I mean OMG!!! How pretty is this! And how it shines on my nails!!! DROOOOL!!! I adore glitter polishes, as you can see this one is teal and holographic glitter in a purple base. Oh how I wish I could end this post with an accurate colored photos… yet again, my camera has it’s own ideas of what purple is… I’ve tried everything except photoshopping them. In the end I decided to post them as they are, but keep in mind that the pictures above are more color accurate. I’ve used Essence peel off base because of all the glitters, and two layers of Cleo. The drying time is normal, but I’ve also used Essence BTGN top coat to speed it up. Gosh how pretty this is (but damn the camera’s non accurate colors)!!

I literally couldn’t stop staring at my nails!! This is definitely one of the prettiest polishes I own. My favorite colors are blue/teal and purple/pink, so Shimmer Polish couldn’t have picked better for me. =)
