Reader Request: China Glaze Stellar and Goddess

At the behest of two readers, a couple of other China Glaze glitter swatches.

China Glaze Goddess (without and with flash)

Three coats. Silvery gold glitter with gold shimmer. Not as blingy as I would've expected, though. Sort of atypical for a gold glitter for a two reasons: the glitter is (again) square and there is also subtle (compared to the glitter anyway) shimmer interspersed so emptyish spaces on the nail left by the glitter aren't as bereft as they are usually.

(I decided that horizontal bar close-ups was less visually distracting than vertical ones unless I'm doing two side by side.)

China Glaze Stellar
It's hard to get a good picture of this one. It looks like it's gold and silver microglitter suspended in a shimmery purple-leaning mauve. Pretty unusual. It's glittery but nowhere close to blingy.
