I'm just WAITING for somebody to get this concept right. The creme and shimmer 3-layer "mixables" that I've gotten from Claire's before have been pretty disastrous: usually, it's a nice color but it's a single color and it's usually hard to apply. So when I saw this, I got really excited: how interesting to throw the glitter in! With the clear polish and glitter, the polish seemed to stand a better chance of getting a marbling effect.

Three coats (which includes one coat where I had to go fishing for stars). You've gotta look pretty closely but there IS a slight marbling effect going on here (yay!) and the polish ends up jellyish because of the clear polish diluting the shimmer ones. There are three types of sparkle in this: shimmer, glitter and star. The shimmer is pretty. The glitter is pretty. The star... is surprisingly flat. And thick. Thick to the point where it sticks up off the nail. I wonder why polish manufacturers don't use a more flexible material for these things. And why Claire's didn't choose a more reflective star! They looked like they were made out of cardboard.
