Color Club Wild At Heart

As the sun is shining more often, I more often feel like wearing holo's, ultimate prettiness!
This time I chose Color Club's Wild At Heart, A purple holo.


I must say, this is a nice one.
The purple is great, and the holo, in the sun, is absolutely stunning.

These pics are pre-cleanup, sorry about that.


And a close-up wich shows the holo-goodness really well:


Nice, right?
Great to wear when it's sunny outside!

Thanks for stopping by!

OPI DS Extravagance

Got this polish only yesterday, but I'm glad I ordered it!
I was having doubts about this one, but they disappeared as soon as I put it on my nails.


Pretty, pretty!
This one is especially great out in the sun.
Such a pretty holo.

The Konad is done with Color Club Worth The Risque (another holo), used plate M64.

Last up, a little close-up to see the great holo effect of these polishes.


Pretty eh?

Thanks for stopping by!

Sinful Senorita with some short loving

Did a quick mani yesterday.
It promised to become quite a nice day today, so I chose H&M's Sinful Senorita.
Put some lovely hearts on it to make it even lovelier.
Slapped on some Seche Vite, and went to bed about an hour and a half later.

This morning I woke up, more than half of the hearts were already missing from my left hand!
What a shame :-(

Anyway, managed to make an acceptable pic from my right hand.


The idea was to have 2 hearts on each finger.
Just like on my thumb, like this.
Ah well, it was fun to do, and was nice while it lasted.

Thanks for stopping by!

H&M Holo's

Quite recently I found H&M had some holo polishes up for sale.
Holo's, holo's, holo's!

I love holo's, but I guess that's no secret, right? I went to get three of them, and now on to show you these beauties.
As always, click on them to see the bigger version.

There are three holo's, Creme de la Creme (golden holo), Sinful Senorita (pink holo) and Mad About You (blue holo).



I tried Creme de la Creme first.
Application is nice and smooth, and good coverage after two layers of polish.
All pics are without topcoat.I like this one.
A nice golden colour, and the holo is really pretty out in the sun.

Same goes for Sinful Senorita.I really like this one. The colour is just gorgeous, and the holo in this one is also really nice out in the sun.


Last up I tried Mad About You.

Hm. I'm not mad about this one.
I don't really like the colour, it feels undefined to me.
And there's almost no holo in it too. Not my kinda polish.

Well, I guess you can't have it all, right?

Which one is your favourite?

NOTD: Nfu.oh #66

Quickie today, it was sunny, so I felt like holo madness!
I truly adore the Nfu.oh holo's.
They just áre holo.


A subtle Konad, Essence Show Your Feet Caribbean Sea, used plate Mm63.

Thanks for stopping by!

Comparison: Dark holo's

Early on in my newly found nailpolish obsession I bought OPI's MY Private Jet. Expected a lot of it, and was greatly dissapointed.
I expected it to be really holo, well, it wasn't.
Later on I discovered there are about 5 versions of this polish (what where you thinking OPI, never change a winning formula!). I was just looking at swatches on the internet, how was I supposed to know :-o.

After that, I discovered other brands, also with dark holo's, yay!
I collected these three over the time, and thought it would be nice to compare them.
Maybe this will come in handy for you polish lovers out there, to decide wich one to buy. Or to love.

Okay, the polishes are:-OPI-My Private Jet
-Color Club-Revvvolution
-Diamond Cosmetics-Chainmail Charm.

I put on 2 layers of each polish. Of course, photos are clickable to see the larger image.

In each photo, there's OPI My Private Jet on my indexfinger, Color Club Revvvolution on my middlefinger, and Diamond Cosmetics Chainmail Charm on my ringfinger. Easy, right?

Oh, one little sidenote; a while ago I tried to pimp My Private Jet a little by adding some China Glaze Wireless Holographic topcoat. Didn't really work by the way, but it changes the holographic effect of the OPI just a teenie weenie bit.

Well, off to the comparison!First, a photo.


It's immediately clear My Private Jet is the least holo of these three.
My Private Jet is a nice and dark, brownish/black colour, but the holo just won't come out, really.
Revvvolution has a little more black in it, and is way more holo. Chainmail Charm on the other hand, is a little bit more brown, and also has a nice holo.

This pic shows the colours even better. Revvvolution is a little more black than My private Jet, Chainmail Charm is a little more brown, and the lightest colour (in my opinion) of these three.

These pics were taken in the sun, it's really obvious My Private Jet just doesn't seem to make it as far as the holo part goes. It is just lightly holographic, only really clear when you put your hand just in front of your eyes.

Some more pics to show you the colours and the holo effect of these polishes.
Again, there's OPI My Private Jet on my indexfinger, Color Club Revvvolution on my middlefinger, and Diamond Cosmetics Chainmail Charm on my ringfinger.



Overall I think I like Color Club Revvvolution best. I just love the classy dark polish, with the holo just splashing out when the sun shines.

This was it for my comparison. I hope this was helpful for all you polish-lovers out there.
If you're still left with any questions, please, do not hesitate to ask.

Leaves me wondering, which one of these is your favourite?
