Now that you’ve seen each effect individually, here they are all piled up on one another. I think, shown all together like this, the line is quite impressive. You’ll notice that the darker the base color, the more dramatic the effect is.
My favorites of the line are Sapphire Sparkle, Ice Blue Shimmer and [...]

I think Amethyst Sparkle is probably the most demure of the sparkle effects, but still gorgeous. Best over a darker color as some of the oomph gets lost in the lighter colors.
*cries* I think the last swatch did ring finger in. From now on, I’ll be doing 3-finger swatches. A moment [...]

Raspberry Sparkle is the answer to any under the weather red or pink polish. It takes it over the edge into sparkle land.
Oh noes. I think ring finger is a goner. It’s been hanging limp all day. Do you think I overworked it to death? Surely it can hang in [...]

Jade Sparkle, in my opinion, wasn’t all that jade. I realise, these days, that the jade stone can come in any combinations of colors. However, when any line of make up uses the word “jade” in their title, I think of a light minty green. With this effect, it came off more [...]

Sapphire Sparkle is my absolute, hands down, no question about it, so help me favorite. It changes colors! The straight on pics below didn’t capture it, so I took an individual one over black. It glitters blue and purple, depending on how the light hits it. Superb over black, but quite nice [...]

I can’t get over how good these effects look over black. I’m not as wild about this one over the green, but over the rest of the colors, it’s nice.
This is getting out of control! I was in a business meeting today and not only ring finger try to pick my nose, it [...]

I think that the Sparkles have the most vavoom of the Effects line. I’m not quite sure if it was just my bottle of Gold Sparkle or not, but it had what seemed like micro flakies. None of the other sparkles were like this. You’ll see it most apparently on the black.
Ooooooooo [...]

I realized as I was finishing up with the shimmers that all of them looked good over black. I especially like this one over the grey.
These colors may have been exciting a few days ago, but I’m really starting to get sick of them now. And ring finger is officially starting to annoy [...]

Scarlet Shimmer definately kicks up the reds and gives them alot of depth. However, if you’re on a budget and are really looking to amp up, wait for Raspberry Sparkle.
Ok, ring finger is in full on complain mode. Says it’s too much work and the polish fumes are starting to get to [...]

Copper Shimmer gives all the colors a burnished look and makes them a bit warmer. This one may not be as flamboyant as some of the others, but it’s still a winner.
Ring finger is looking a little under the weather. And I have to say, that it’s not looking as perky as it [...]
