Holo swatch spam: Shaka, Pupa, Lady Venezia, Mi-ny
In
this holo swatch spam you will meet 2 extreme holos and 2 subtle holos: Shaka Hologram Sky, Pupa 80, Lady Venezia 24, Mi-ny
Violet 6!
They were a gift/swap from the super sweet Chiara from IlMio Beauty Case - thank you so much my friend!
Ok, prepare for the first one, get your sun glasses ready for Shaka Hologram Sky:
Shaka Hologram Sky is a beautiful and
bright pastel blue holo with a super wicked strong effect. I experienced a
little dragging in the second coat even over a ridge filler bc that works like a aqua bc, and it does cling to the nail and show
imperfections – but GAHH, it’s so gorgeous <3 You see it in 2 coats without
a top coat.
Now you can remove your sun glasses for the next two, the first it Pupa 80:
Pupa 80 is a very delicate
and pale green holo, a bit khaki leaning I would say. Considering the light
shade the holo effect is fairly strong and fairly visible in most light
settings. The formula was rather easy to work with, I experienced just a little
dragging (I did use a ridge filler base coat), and it clings to the nails
showing imperfections, but not as bad as some other brands. This is two coats
with a coat of Seche Vite.
The next is Lady Venezia 24:
Lady Venezia 24 is a pale grey-blue
holo with a medium strong effect. The formula was nice to work with, and this
is 2 coats without a top coat.
And for Mi-ny Violet 6 you definitely need you sun glasses again:
Mi-ny Violet 6 is a gorgeous lavender-pink also with a super wicked strong effect,
seriously strong. I experienced a little dragging even over a ridge filler bc that works like a aqua bc and it does cling to the nail
and show imperfections – but OMG, it’s beyond gorgeous <3 You see 2 coats
without a top coat.
So this was two extreme holos and two subtle. I have a soft spot for the strong rainbows - what do you prefer?
The first and last one are wowzers, so wow wow wow :))) Pupa is subtle yet pretty and I have the same Lady Venezia :)
SvarSletI agree with you!
SletYes ladies and gents - that's exactly how I feel, I love the insanely strong rainbows :)
SletAll Italian holos! :D I have two of them, the Shaka and the Lady Venezia. I have not bought a mi-ny yet since they are "already seen elsewhere" kind of colours, but they have a really strong effect, that's sure! I have a couple of Pupa, I love them, so cute ♡ my favourite is the violet one :)
SvarSletYes - all Italian beauties <3
SletI agree, the Mi-ny is fabulous - and it seems their holos all have super strong rainbows just like the Shaka's :)
Some stunners, some subtles, but my favourite is Pupa holo.
SvarSletWell my favorites are the Shaka and the Mi-ny :)
SletNo wonder. They are striking.
SletThat Shaka polish is insane!
SvarSletFor God's sake!!!! Look at those polishes!!!! My EYES! MY EYESSSS!!! From the four swatches, Shaka Hologram Sky did impress me a lot! Mi-ni Violet 6 is also beautiful, of course, ellegand and stylish, but I must admit that from all these polishes, Shaka is still shinning ... a vision to behold!
SvarSlet=D
LOL - I told you - you need sunglasses ;)
SletI'm glad you love them as much as I do!
Some really pretty holos! I think I'm with Aneta, I'm loving the first and last! Holo overload *drools* :-D
SvarSletYep, I couldn't agree more!
SletI recommend aqua base coat for the two extreme holos, that might help with the dragging :)
SvarSletI love the first one the most :)
Yes, you definitely need that - but i used a ridge filler with the same finish/surface, and still I experienced just a little bit of dragging!
SletAre'nt they just gorgeous especially the first and the last one
SvarSletThey are - and the Shaka and the Mi-ny are also my favorites :)
SletI've resisted this Mi-ny polish for a very long time because I thought it was too similar to a Color Club holo, but it looks so pretty on your pictures!!! I don't like that it shows imperfections, but I'm going to buy it! I really love strong holos, but often I'm more comfortable wearing weaker holos. Awesome photos as usual!
SvarSletI think it has a stronger rainbow - so go for it :)
SletYou are right, that's the only down side in what I usually call first generation of holos - that's why I love the indie makers holos, even if their rainbows aren't as strong...
to be honest , i wasn't prepared .. i am not felling well.. have headache if this amazing pictures ! hahahha wonderful..speechless
SvarSletOh that's terrible :D *handing you a pair of sun glasses* - there now, did that help ;)
SletYep, they do leave you speechless, don't they!!
LOL you are so right about that - Laylaa also makes insane rainbows :)
SvarSlet*take sunglasses off* OMG - Hologram Sky and Mi-ny Violet are truly stunning. Not really my colours, but due to that effect they're a must have.
SvarSletKind regards,
Elena
LOL I'm glad you wore sun glasses - you are right, they are sooo strong!
SletHun, I really needed the sunglasses for Shaka Hologram Sky...wow, it is the most powerful holo that I have ever seen, it takes the spotlight from all the other ones!
SvarSletLOL - it kind of does, doesn't!
SletÅh vad vackra allihopa! Fast det är iofs alltid holografiska lack enligt mig ;p Men gillar särskilt den från Mi-ny, superfin!
SvarSletHahaha, jeg elsker også alle holo's - og ja, den er rigtigt fin!
SletShaka Hologram Sky *.*
SvarSleti'm mesmerized, it really has wicked strong holo effect <3
Yes, I know, and it's blue and all ;)
SletThe Shaka and mi-ny polish are sooo pretty!
SvarSletThey are - so strong and amazing!
SletShaka and mi-ny <3
SvarSletYou are absolutely right :D
SletShaka Hologram Sky is so strong! My favourite here is Lady Venezia 24 :-)
SvarSletIt is pretty amazing that Shaka :)
SletThe Shaka is my fav one among those (and it is pretty much dupe of the mi-ny blue one, but shaka is no longer available so it's basically a HTF) :) But Lady Venezia is just too gorgeous to not be bought *____* well, I can go ahead with the other two too XD
SvarSletIt's also my favorite - I'm so happy you got these beauties for me <3
