Essence Dark Romance: Dark Night Starlight

Essence Dark Romance: Dark Night Starlight
Purple with shimmer

Today's polish is another oldie that doesn't deserve to sit any longer in the box of untrieds. I think it's from Autumn 2014! There were just one shimmer in the collection called "Dark Romance", and you already know that I love shimmers.

My first impression of the formula is that it's looking a bit sheer. It did build up in two coats though and the drying time is good.

I stamped on it. The stamping design is from the stamping plate "Nicole Diary-L07". I stamped with two colours: El Corazón's "White" and Colour Alike's "We Can Boogie".

I topped it all with Top Shelf Lacquer's holo microglitter topper "It's Not What You Drink".

Here is the final result under a lamp:

I love gradient stamping like this.

This is "Dark Night Starlight" alone; two coats and no topcoat.

And here is all the stuff I used today.

"Dark Night Starlight" is really pretty and I loved wearing it with white and pink on top. The glitter topper from Top Shelf Lacquer is gorgeous!
