GlitterDaze Sunset In The City Collection Swatches!

Good evening, readers! I have a very long and photo-filled post for you tonight that I've been working on for a few days. All 5 colors from the GlitterDaze Sunset In The City Collection! They are all color shifting so I wanted to show a handful of pictures of each polish. I hope  you enjoy!


A few things on the collection as a whole: all of these pictures are 3 coats of the polish on their own and my accent nail is one coat over a black base. All photos show top coat and there are no application issues to report. They all have micro holo glitter but you can't really see it in my photos because I'm using diffused light in a lightbox. They are very sparkly in the sun in person!


I'm going to go in alphabetical order with this collection to keep it easy.

"Afterglow in Aspen is holographic multichrome polish, which shifts from turquoise/blue/purple/red/ with just a hint of bronze in certain angles. This polish is based on the sunsets of Aspen, Colorado overlooking beautiful snowcapped mountain sceneries."



1 coat over black.

3 coats alone.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


"Dusky in Dallas is a holographic multichrome polish, which shifts from lavender/purple/red/orange with beautiful pops of pink in certain angles. This polish is based on the sunsets of Dallas, Texas overlooking our beautiful skyline."



1 coat over black.

3 coats alone.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Nightfall in New York City is a holographic multichrome polish, which shifts from blue/purple/red/orange. This polish is based on the sunsets of New York City and truly captures the beauty of night falling over the New York Harbor and amazing NYC skyline."



1 coat over black.

3 coats alone.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Sundown in Seattle is a holographic multichrome polish, which shifts from orange/copper/yellow/red. This polish is based on the sunsets of Seattle, Washington and has the perfect shades to portray a beautiful evening sky overlooking Lake Washington."



1 coat over black.

3 coats alone.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Twilight in Tucson is a holographic multichrome polish, which shifts from pink/red/ orange/yellow with a hint of light purple. This polish is based on the sunsets of Tucson, Arizona on a hot summer evening in the lush Sonoran Desert."



1 coat over black.

3 coats alone.

Shimmer Polish Jacki, Kelly, and Alessandra Swatches!

Hi, Happy Sunday! I have three Shimmer Polishes to show you today. The exciting part? One is called Jacki--that's me! Pretty exciting to have my name on a bottle of polish!

We will start out with my namesake. Jacki is a mixture of purple and blue glitters, with a few extra colors in smaller quantities. I'm showing three coats with Shimmer Glass top coat. There are no application issues to report.





My next favorite is Kelly. It is a green and gold mixture of glitter and gorgeous! I'm showing 3 coats with Shimmer Glass top coat below. It applied easily.





Lastly, we have Alessandra. It is a red glitter mixture and I am again showing 3 coats with Shimmer Glass top coat. This seems very holiday-themed to me.





Well, there you have them! What do you think of these three Shimmer Polishes? Which is your favorite? 

Each bottle retails for $12 and you can even order a custom polish for $15! You can find that listing HERE in Cindy's Etsy Shop.
