Chimera Aurora is an effect top coat with color shifting shimmer and iridescent glitter, meant for layering over other polishes. It is a combination of the pigments and glitters in the four Mythological Aurora top coats (Phoenix Aurora, Dragon Aurora, Unicorn Aurora, and Kelpie Aurora). The effect is a beautiful combination of iridescence and shimmer resulting in a profusion of colors.
Prior to the introduction of Kelpie to the Mythological line, a customer requested a blend of the three existing Mythological top coats (Phoenix, Dragon, and Unicorn), and named that resulting top coat Uniphoedra. That polish gave rise to the Chimera polishes - a name that felt appropriate for pigment blend that is a combination of four Mythological creatures. As each of the creatures in the Mythological line is tied to a specific pigment, a Chimera polish will contain the four color shifting pigments used in Starlight and Sparkles' Phoenix, Dragon, Unicorn, and Kelpie polishes.

The color shifting pigments in the Chimera polishes are a combination of the four pigments used in the other types of Mythological polishes (Phoenix, Dragon, Unicorn, and Kelpie). These pigments can produce different ranges of color shift, from the red to green of "unicorn pee" pigment to the gold to green, green to blue, and teal to violet of "unicorn pee sibling" pigments.
Chimera Aurora is a custom polish, made from scratch with nail lacquer base, color shifting glitter, and color shifting pigment. Starlight Polish is 5 free, meaning free of DBP, toluene, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, and camphor, and contains no carmine or other animal-derived pigments.
