On Monday I showed you the lighter creme holos from ILNP and today I have the darker crellies for you! The holo stands out a lot more in these darker shades because the formula is more jelly-like and the bases being darker = stand out sparkle!
Raspberry Beret is a muted berry pink because the silver holo pigment grays it. But in the sun or in direct light it transforms in to a banging medium strength linear holo. This one needs about two coats for full coverage.
Grape Alicious is a stunning deep violet holo. The blue rainbow sparkle just hangs around non-stop!!!! So this is creamy formula-wise, but it doesn't ever really look like a creme on the nail. It's too holo, hum-ah-nah, hum-ah-nah!! Two coats for full coverage. I don't have many photos of this one because I accidentally deleted most of them hehehe.
Simply Adorablue is a medium teal green holo. The formula is more jelly-like and when you're in the shade the scattered holo particles are quite visible. In direct light it illicits a weak-medium linear holo effect. Two-three coats are best for full coverage.
Monterey Bay is a very dark teal blue. It's bluer than Glitter Gal Lizard Belly but not as holo. Another easy two coat application - getting tired of me saying that yet?!
A.C. Slater is a slate brown holo. How awesome is the Saved by the Bell reference?!!!!!! That was my favourite show growing up. You have no idea how happy I was when we went to the US over Summer and they always had it playing non-stop. My favourite shows were when the kids were working at the county club over Summer break!!! Anyway slate brown is the bestest brown, so I'm a huge fan. The holo is pretty obvious and it's another two coater.
Yes, I'm pretty happy with my weak-medium linear holos. They aren't in your face holo so I still get that excited feeling when I walk out in to the sun and suddenly there are little rainbows on my nails :) You might say, I'm not too hard to please.

They're all so pretty! *makes grabby hands*
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely try their 1st and 15th holo. It is AMAZING!! The color is a gorgeous aqua/mint blue/green but the holo is INTENSE! I have a bunch of her polishes and there isn't one I don't love, but that one really took my breath away.
