Dear Holographic nail polishes, I love you. Nothing has tickled my fancy more than holo nail polishes recently. I'm semi hoarding them like the world will really end this year. They just make me SO HAPPY. I can't help but smile everytime I walk outside and see rainbow goodness radiating from my nails. And Layla polishes are so holo that even indoors you can see their awesomeness. ANYWHO! This is a semi awkward photo but I wanted to show you what I discovered, which is probably not news to anyone but me. I had always used my Nails Inc matte top coat as a base for under my holo polishes because it helped apply them the best. Then in one of my videos I was complaining about holo application and someone in the comments said to use Seche Vite. So I did! The thumb nail is Seche Vite and the rest of the nails is matte top coat. With Layla's Ocean Rush on top.
Holy bajeezus. Can you see the immense difference? It is easier to apply over matte top coat but the effect of it on top of Seche Vite is amazing! So worth it. Since wearing this I have ordered the Nfu Oh Aqua Base so we will see how that goes. I also like wearing my holo polishes on top of bare nails and that works really well but it chips instantly. So that is kinda a bummer.
Do you guys have any favourite holo polishes?! Let me know so I can lust over them!

Hi all! I'm having a super productive day today. I finally bought a Melmer! Woohoo! I have spent the day making a spreadsheet of all my polishes and organizing my Melmer. I love it sooo much =D Let me know if you wish to see an overview of my storage once it is all good and dandy!
So the other day I decided I felt like a comparison. I am a huge fan of holo polishes and I had not worn Hits Zeus yet and so I figured I would compare it to Layla Flash Black, which I love. These do NOT compare at all! Holy macaroni! The first and third fingers are Layla and the second and fourth are Hits.
As you can see, Flash Black is a OMG IN YOUR FACE HOLO CAN YOU SEE THAT AMAZEBALLS RAINBOW!?!? <333 And Hits is super subtle. It almost looks like a scattered holo but in a linear design.. That makes little logical sense haha. I applied both of these with no base because that usually works better for me than any base. To be honest, if I had bought Flash Black before Zeus I would have never purchased Zeus. But I have ended up with both =P Which is ok by me, because the more holos the better! But Flash Black is definitely better if you are looking for an intense holo, which is what I love.
Till next time!
