Claire's: Mermaid Blue


Claire's: Mermaid Blue
Blue shimmer topper

"Mermaid Blue" is from Claire's Mermazing collection. It's a really pretty blue shimmer topper.

I layered "Mermaid Blue" over a shimmery blue polish from Golden Rose, #103 from their "Matte Velvet" collection. It wasn't quite fair to the topper to layer it over such a beautiful shimmer, because the topper didn't really make that much of a difference. But never mind.

I made white and magenta stripes on the blue, and then topped it all with Depend's holo/silver glitter topper #335.

Here's the final result.

I absolutely love this!

Here's one layer of "Mermaid Blue" over the blue base colour, Golden Rose #103.

This is Golden Rose Matte Velvet #103 alone; one single coat! Isn't it just lovely?

Golden Rose Matte Velvet #103, Claire's Mermaid Blue, Moyra #83, Depend #335

I will try to layer this beautiful shimmer over a contrasting colour next time. It looks like a really lovely topper.
