Wheel W8: Silver Holo Microglitter Toppers

In a switch from my usual practice of painting glitter wheels by brand, I decided I had enough silver holo microglitter toppers to do a wheel with just them. I wasn't quite right about that—a couple of these are straight up silver holo topcoats, a few look like they could be worn on their own, and some are more just plain glitter and not microglitter. But they are all silvery with pops of holo, so that works.

Looking at these photos now, I realize I should have considered putting a dark base on the wheel first so the topping effect of these polishes would show up better. Maybe I'll do W8 version 2 next time I sit down to do some wheels.
