Shimmer Polish Stephanie + OPI Casino Royale

And now for something totally different.  I usually don't post too many mattes, nor do I mattify glitter polishes.  But I did just that with this post to show off how fun glitters can be even when they aren't blindingly sparkly.   

This is Shimmer Polish Stephanie.  Stephanie is a gorgeous mix of royal blue, purple, yellow gold and holo glitters.  I used 1 coat and there was more then a-plenty glitter on my nails.  The formula was great, glitters well suspended and they spread well on my nails.  I put Stephanie over OPI Casino Royale, a berry purple creme from the Skyfall collection.  It was a bit tricky to use because it immediately stained my cuticles and skin around my nails.  It's a gorgeous color though with a thick, creamy formula.  I used 1 layer of essie matte about you topcoat for the matte effect.
