Shining Star

Another one from the vault! I really do miss my light box. Especially on dark rainy days. I think I may need to make another one before winter gets here and there's nothing but clouds and snow. 

Orly Shining Star is a fabulous golden holographic glitter polish in a clear base.  It shines gold, green, and orange and lots of shades in between.

A single thumb alone for the polish by itself. Alone, it's kinda meh. Most glitters in clear polish are meant to be layered, in my opinion.

Look at all those gorgeous glitters just wanting to stand out!

I thought this would look fabulous over a dark polish to really bring out all the golden holo goodness in this bottle!

I bet this would look killer over a dark green to really show off that gold. I may have to try that next. Adding a glitter like this over a color is a nice way to change it up if you're bored of a polish after one day (which I am super guilty of!) but don't want to change it up just yet.
