Hey guys!
I recently purchased a Lilly Pulitzer agenda, and now I've started planning my blog posts into my days, so hopefully these reviews will be coming at you much more frequently!
Today I have another gorgeous OPI polish for you, but this time it's a shimmer/glitter top coat. This polish is called "I Juggle Men". It's a blue/purple/pink holographic shimmer polish and it is one of the coolest things ever!
As pretty as this colour looks, it is a real nasty polish to use. It was pretty hidden on the nail, so it had a subtle effect. That I didn't mind too much though. I layered it over OPI's 'Suzi Has a Swede Tooth' but it may have a better effect over a black polish. It took one coat to get the coverage I got too, so I was quite impressed. However, I wore this combo as a full manicure and man, this sucked. I used my regular seche vite top coat, and somehow, the two reacted and 'I Juggle Men' started to crack. Then, I left it because it didn't bother me too much, but two hours later, I noticed that it was actually MELTING my base polish away. I'd heard of this happening with seche vite, but I didn't take much notice of it. How weird. I'm hoping that with just a regular non fast drying top coat, it'll work better, but we'll see. In my swatches, you can see how subtle it is, as in, these are basically OPI's Suzi Has A Swede Tooth swatches.

Sunlight. In this shot, you can kinda see the shimmer. Slightly.
I'm a huge fan of shimmery nail polish, but I just can't deal with the stress of this polish. When I have a bit more patience with it, I might try again, but right now, I wouldn't recommend it at all. I also don't seem to have a bottle shot, but I'll update this post when I find one.
