Catch the Light
Shimmer nail polish adds a soft, reflective glow to any look. From ultra-fine metallic sheens that catch the light at every angle to colour-shifting multichromes that flicker between hues, shimmer polishes work as a full look on their own or layered over a creme base for a lit-from-within effect.
Types of Shimmer Finish
-
Metallic shimmer – a smooth, mirror-like sheen with a consistent colour
-
Duo or multichrome shimmer – shifts between two or more colours depending on the angle of light
-
Micro shimmer – ultra-fine particles that give a subtle glow without obvious glitter
-
Aurora shimmer – a colour-shifting effect inspired by the northern lights
