Quite a few glittery ones here. Ruby Pumps is probably my favourite. Vivid, but not too bright. It looks great worn alone, with a couple of coats, or over a darker red, such as Long Kiss.

Both Sugar Plums & Crystal Ball have tiny holographic glitter flecks. Perhaps because of the base shade, they show up a little more in Crystal Ball. That's not to say it's hard to see in Sugar Plums, it's definitely there. A glossy topcoat makes it pop that little bit more.

Don't Toy With Me leans more to the pinky red side, especially when it's next to a truer red shade. It's still a pretty, glittery polish.

Rose Among Thorns ended up on this wheel because it had a distinctly red cast to it in the bottle. Obviously, it's been a while since I used it because here it shows up as a bright pink.

For a non-glitter, metallic red, I reach for I'm Not Really A Waitress every time. It's not a screaming red & looks very elegant.
