Wheel O12: Studio M and Cosmetic Arts Bright Glitters

Finally something other than orange and orange-adjacent cremes for Nail Wheel Wednesday. Today it's brightly hued glitters from Studio M and Cosmetic Arts, both brands that come from the same manufacturer as Color Club (you may recognize some of the polish names as being the same as the Color Club ones they are dupes for). I did something a little different with this wheel; instead of just layering the toppers over neutral cremes, I also tried them over the opaque shades in the group. I think my creative brain was just so happy to be done with cremes for a while that it demanded to play.
