Born Pretty Store Holographic Polish - #3 Pink, #8 Blue, & #11 Purple

Born Pretty Store has recently put up their own line of holographic polish.

#3 can be found here for $5.59. The bad part is that it's only for 6mL of polish.
You can tell my bottle is not as vibrant or hot pink as the site photos. I applied 3 coats. Coverage was easy, no trouble with patchiness or dragging like some holo polishes. Dry time was fast.


It's so mesmerizing. I could stare at my nails in the sun all day.

#11 is a dark purple. Found here for $5.59

Color Club Halo Hues - Over The Moon & Beyond

Color Club Halo Hues are the beautiful new holographic polishes that you may have seen floating around on blogs. They can be found for sale on the Color Club website here for $10 each.

Over The Moon
Light blue linear holographic. 2 coats in the sunlight.
GORGEOUS!


Indoors with flash

 I read where others have had success with these polishes and stamping. So here I used Over The Moon to stamp BM313 over Beyond.

Beyond
2 coats in sunlight. Black linear holographic.



Indoors with flash.


Here I used Beyond to stamp BM313 over Over The Moon.

The formula and application was superb. Amazing for a holographic polish. I didn't experience any of the dragging and patchiness that happens with other holographic polishes. 
The dry time is fast and easy to work with.

Zoya Ornate Holiday Collection - The Holos

I recently purchased the 3 Zoyas with holographic glitter. They are really beautiful. Check it out:

Zoya Blaze
Pictured is just 2 coats. Formula was fantastic. 
This was the least holographic of the 3... 
But it's still a gorgeous berry color. 




 Zoya Aurora
Pictured is 2 coats. Formula was superb.
The most holographic of the 3! And it's stunning!
Medium purple shade.



Zoya Storm
Pictured is 2 coats. Great formula.
Looks holographic in direct sunlight, but it all pretty much hides indoors.



Then I did a gradient of Blaze to Storm just for kicks:

GOSH - Holographic

I've swatched this before. Last year when I first got it, here. My nails were short and rounded then, so here they are on another nail shape. :) It's summer, therefore always a good time to pull out the holographics!
This is 2 coats. Some complain about patchy application... I didn't have too many troubles. I used Orly Bonder as the base coat and made sure that there is a fair amount of polish on the brush. I noticed more bald spots when my brush was drier.


Outdoors in the setting sun..... The polish takes on a much softer tone.


I love it soooooo much! :)

OPI DS Glamour Toes

I know of one nail salon in town that has some great dusty polishes that are HTFs. Too bad they won't sell them to me. :( Boo! So I happened to be in the mood to check it out anyway. Sure enough she wouldn't sell them to me (because it's their only bottle... ya think?). So I paid them to paint my toes with it. Their bottle of DS Glamour has seen better days though, it was only 1/3 full and all of the silver was virtually worn off the cap. So I didn't want it THAT bad.

 The nail tech did 2 coats and it turned out so good. 

This picture is a tad blurrier, so it shows the holo even better!
I got my glitter bow flip flops from CATO's for $12. In case you were wondering. They are super cute.

AEngland - Dragon Swatch

This polish was provided for review by Beautometry.com.

This is my first AEngland and it is amazing. I've heard such good things about them from other bloggers, but now I can agree out of experience.

Dragon is a duochrome and a holographic. :) It's a medium/dark green with a copper/gold duochrome shimmer. Also scattered holographic glitter. Pictured below is 2 thin coats but the formula would have worked with just one medium coat. It applied very easily and I didn't have any problems whatsoever.  

I'm a sucker for green polishes, but they don't always look good on my skin tone. I'm very happy with this however!


This pic shows the duochrome the best:



It doesn't lose too much of it's magic with indoor lighting. It's still quite pretty.

If you're interested in buying overseas brands like this one, AEngland or GlitterGal check out Beautometry.com. Therese carries both brands at prices comparable to other sites.

Do you have any AEngland? What colors should I look into?
