Essence ~ Don’t Be Too Shy to Shine



Essence ~ Don’t Be Too Shy to Shine
White with crazy shimmer

I love the name of today’s polish: “Don’t be too shy to shine”! It’s a crazy shimmering and sparkling white from the “Made to Sparkle” collection from 2017. I love shimmers and sparkles and this white is super pretty and sparkly.

I used two easy coats for full opacity and the drying time is good.

The red dots are made with Colour Alike’s “Holy Sin” and the black dots are made with OPI’s “Never have too mani Friends”.

This is the end result including a layer of topcoat.

The white shimmer made my camera go really crazy, haha!

This is “Don’t be too shy to shine” on its own; two coats and no topcoat.

Here are the three polishes I used to create today’s manicure.


“Don’t be too shy to shine” isn’t chalk white but more of a soft white. It’s super shiny and pretty and so usable for all kinds of nail art. I love it!

“Don’t be too shy to shine” was limited edition and is no longer available.
