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?

Chanel Rouge Vertige 80 - vintage - Collaboration Saturday

It is time for a new Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel!
Chanel Rouge Vertige 80 is an older polish, not sure how old, but I’m pretty sure it’s before 2000. It is a dark wine purple with a brown hue and a subtle but pretty shimmer. This is 2 easy coats without a top coat.

Do you like this old polish?
Now I'm heading over to visit Elena - do you want to join me..?
