I’m in a torrid love affair with shimmery polishes at the moment but don’t feel I’ve found my holy grail neutral / pale pink.
A lot of my polishes have a green shimmer, which I blow hot and cold on.
But I also realise that without an offset colour a plain pink shimmer can feel a little like a simple drugstore pink (not that there’s anything wrong with that.)
I’ve attached a few examples of polishes I like but which aren’t 100%:
Mooncat Midsummer’s Dream: love it but it’s very candy pink; would like something a bit softer
Clionadh Venus: love the very subtle pink base, but has a green flash which I’m so-so on
Danglefoot N The End: an example of a darker / warmer shimmer that I like – blue in this case – I’m drawn to it more than green
Basically open to any and all ideas – thank you!

My favourite is BioSculpture’s merry-go-round. I don’t think I’ve seen a shade like it. It’s gorgeous and doesn’t have any shade of green in it!
There’s two that might tinkle your fancy; [this one](https://angryharpypolish.com/products/ceaseless-mauv-els-purple-mauve-w-blue-shimmer-nail-polish-indie-maker-from-the-pnw-small-batch-lacquer) and maybe [this one](https://angryharpypolish.com/products/blue-skies-and-cherry-blossoms-sheer-pink-jelly-w-aqua-and-pink-shimmer-angry-harpy-polish-pnw-indie-maker-small-batch-lacquer)
I have Ceaseless Mauv-els and a few others from Angry Harper. I will be honest they run a bit on the thin formula side. I’ve reached out and according to the creator she said her new batches have improved. Overall I’m a fan.
I really like dam polish – a whimsical dream as a neutral with a bit extra. It’s a pale pink with a blue shimmer
