Devilish Polish - Lime Drop

I recently won a giveaway held by Kelly of Devilish Polish, and the prize was one of her custom polishes - I picked Lime Drop, because I'm a sucker for green, even if they're really iffy on me.

Lime Drop is a yellow-green shimmer with scattered holo glitter. I expected it to be streaky, but it shows zero brush strokes - the green is perfect. I'm undecided about the holo glitter - I'm not a massive fan of obvious glitter at the best of times, but I think I'll warm up to it when the weather gets warmer. I can imagine this being a great pedi colour this summer!

Lime Drop is no longer being sold, but there are three gorgeously intense shimmers being sold here for $5 a pop.

I like how this line bucks the glitter-heavy custom polish trend - maybe it's just me, but as much as I love looking at macros of mixes of glitter, I can't imagine being in the mood for the same one more than a handful of times.

Unfortunately it dries a little gritty (just the glitter, not the shimmer) and probably needs 2 coats of topcoat - I only used one thin coat because I was lazy but I didn't really mind. It also dries a bit slow, but I'm spoiled with super-quick drying polishes. One thing I love about custom polish is how responsive the formulators are to feedback - when I told Kelly, she almost immediately told me that she's already been investigating new suspension bases to solve these problems.
