China Glaze Full Spectrum - Swatches and Review

Does anyone remember how much I loved the glitter in OPI Excuse Moi? Because The new China Glaze Prisms collection is basically full of that glitter, except instead of a solid base, it's a duochrome colour shift one. 


Full Spectrum is a duo that shifts from pink to gold with the addition of multi coloured glitter.


It's a little bit sheer and these photos are three coats. Wear time was slightly better than 'pure' glitters and it was a couple of days before chips emerged. 


Here is it at it's sheerest - there isn't as much VNL in regular light (if any). 


Here's a zoom to show it's beauty. You can see it's made up of small and large hexes of silver, green, pink, orange and yellow. There is a gold colour shift in the top left , pink in the middle and a tiny hint of purple at the bottom right.

I found this was the Prismatic with the most colour shifting tendancies. I only own the blue and purple (names have slipped my mind!) to compare though. 

What do you think of this collection? Do you like the idea of duochrome glitters?
