Layla Murcury Twilight vs Make Up Store Greta

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you a comparison between two polishes which I'm loving at the moment. So we all know Make Up stores holo were the most linear holo polishes out there.


But along come Layla's, and in my opinion makes Make Up Stores holo's not holo at all. 

Index & Ring Finger: 2 coats Layla Mercury Twilight
Middle & Pinkie Finger: Make Up Store's Greta

Both were applied without the aqua base and dragged when applied. that's my only complaint. I have 5 of the Layla polishes, and think they are AMAZING!


Hope you all enjoy and see you guys soon.

Franken Horsenden & Holo Bomb

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you another Franken which I have named Horsenden. I named this after a hill, close by to me. I love it up there so green and fresh. I mixed Essie Pretty Edgy, Sinful colours San Francisco & W7 Black. The sun was out so decided to use my holo top coat aswell.

Franken Horsenden: 2 coats
Holo Bomb: 2 coats
Top Coat: Seche Vite 

Hope you all enjoy and see you guys soon. 

Make Up Store Siw

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you Make Up Store's Siw. Got this back in December but never got the chance to wear it. Look at the holo gorgeousness. Love the results, but hate the application. I'm just a rebel, really hate the fact I need to use the Aqua base for the application to be decent.

Make Up Store Siw: 3 coats

Hope you all enjoy and see you guys soon. 

Layering W7 Black, Barry M Silvery Lilac & Holo bomb

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you a layering mani with the new Barry M polish Silvery Lilac. 


Silvery Lilac is a duochrome polish with some glitter, which I dont particularly like, so decided to add some holo goodness. It's quite sheer, so thought it'd be great layered over a dark polish. 

W7 Black: 1 coat
Barry M Silvery Lilac: 2 coats
Holo Bomb: 1 coat

Hope you all enjoy and see you guys soon. 

Fading Mani

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you a fading mani I did a few weeks ago. Just used a cosmetic sponge to TRY to fade the colours together. I did a rubbish job doing this. LOL Just looked as if I blocked the colours.

Pink: Catherine Arley 670
Purple: Milani (Hi Res)
Blue: Franken
Seche Vite Top Coat

Hope you all enjoy and see you guys soon. 

Franken Polish: Blue's There?

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you my franken polish- Blue's There? Blue's There? is a bright blue holo polish. Couldn't find the bottle, so grabbed my Nail Tek Intensive Therapy II for the pictures.

Blue's There? : 2 coats

My camera disappointed me, and did not show the holo effect. IRL it's actually more holo.


I hope you all enjoy and see you again soon.

Miss Sporty Clubbing Colours Blueberry & OPI DS Original layering Combo

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you a layering combo, as I'm still pining for OPI's DS Glamour. Why is it soooo hard to get hold of? Still can't justify paying £35+ for a nail polish, so still trying to control myself from pressing the 'purchase now' tab on eBay. 


So for this mani I used Miss Sporty's Clubbing Colours Blueberry and layered one coat of OPI DS Original.

Base Colour: Miss Sporty Clubbing Colours Blueberry: 2 coats
OPI DS Original: 1 coat

Still not quite there yet, but still love this combo.


I hope you all enjoy and see you again soon.

W7 Metallic Neptune & Holo Bomb

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you guys yet another combo with my franken, Holo Bomb. I've been trying to get the perfect green/dark blue holo, so it could keep my addiction to buy Glitter Gal's Lizard Belly at bay.


I know it's nowhere close, but love this combo, and don't feel the need to buy Lizard Belly- for now. W7's Metallic Neptune is a purple & teal duochrome polish, which required 1 coat!

W7 Metallic Neptune: 1 coat
Holo Bomb: 1 thin coat
Miss Sporty Glossy Tech Top Coat

Love how this shifted to purple then back to teal depending on the lighting, I sure didn't get bored looking at my mani in different lighting. It's actually more teal in real life. 


Check how my franken has discoloured. Freaking BB's I got were supposed to be no rust, but check how my franken has gone a browny coppery colour. EWWWW....


I hope you all enjoy and see you again soon. 

Revlon Midnight Affair & Holo Bomb

Hi there,


I'm still trying to find the perfect dark blue holographic polish, so today, I'm bringing you my franken, Holo Bomb layered on top of Revlons Midnight Affair. 


First off, Revlon's Midnight Affair is a dark Navy, which a shimmer effect. The formula was really good, and was opaque in one coat. I applied 2 coats, out of habit. (I really need to embrace the fact polishes can be 1 coaters!)

Revlon Midnight Affair: 2 coats
Holo Bomb: 1 coat on index, ring & pinkie. 2 coats on middle finger

I kinda' messed up on the middle finger and had to apply 2 coats of Holo Bomb. It was way too holo, if thats even possible!?! I actually prefer the effect I had on my other fingers, with just the one coat. 


Next up a green holo combination. 


I hope you all enjoy and hopefully see you again soon.

My Franken- Holo Bomb

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you my franken- Holo Bomb. For those who don't know what a franken polish is- it's a polish which one creates themselves. I've been lusting after OPI's DS Glamour, and wanted to see if I could create this. Fat chance! DS Glamour is a polish that is of it's own. Very unique, I would love to know a possible dupe for this polish. 


Anyways, here's what I've created. For the base colour I used China Glaze's First Mate, and added Miss Sporty Glossy Tech's Top coat, to see if this dulled the holo effect, but it didn't- luckily. I'm quite proud of my creation. :o)


Let me guys know what you think. Would like some feedback. 

China glaze First Mate: 1 coat
Holo Bomb: 2 coats

Color Club Revvvolution

Hi there,

Today I'm bringing you yet another holographic polish, Color Clubs Revvvolution. Revvvolution is supposed to be a gorgeous grey holographic polish, however I think I got a dud bottle. I heard there were a few versions of this polish, and hoped and prayed I didn't get the newer, not so holo bottle. Unfortunately, I did. These pictures were taken with a flash, under a lamp, and in natural lighting. As you can see, the holo effect is barely there. In natural lighting the holo effect is non existent. I did not apply a top coat, just to see what the effects will be. :o( I'm so bummed, my mission is now to find a grey super holo polish. Any suggestions? I really wish the UK have more holo polishes which are easily accessible. The majority of my holo stash has been acquired via ordering online, which makes the wait excruciating, have I mentioned, I'm super impatient? :o) 

This applied quiet well, and I could have gotten away with one coat, but as always, I applied 2 just to be on the safe side. 

Color Club Revvvolution: 2 coats

Hope you guys enjoy and see you again soon. 

Make Up Store Haul & Aqua Fix review

Hi there,

I had to refrain myself from buying more polishes on Christmas Eve, but HAD to get Make Up Store's Greta. I heard Greta this was comparable to China Glaze's OMG. I've been looking for OMG & Gosh holographic for AGES….. but I'm not prepared to spend £40+ each for them from eBay. When I went to Westfields- White City, my intentions was just to pick up Greta, but they had a promotion, which apparently was finishing on the day, it was 20% off all purchases. Of course, I couldn't help myself, as I had already refrained myself in Boots & Inglot. So I picked up Siw & the Aqua Fix as well, as I heard without it, the holo polishes does not look/work so good. For comparison, I applied a base coat and Make Up Store's Aqua Fix on the index finger, and just a base coat on the middle finger. I did not apply a top coat.

Make Up Store Greta- 2 coats

It doesn't show but I had bald spots on my middle finger. It was also quiet hard to apply on my middle finger. It kept dragging. I took a out of focus photo just so the bald spots on my middle finger were visible.

Can you see that? So it just goes to prove aqua fix is necessary. I love the formula, and found I achieved even coverage with 2 coats. Love it. 

I just did this post to review the Aqua Fix, hence my naked ring finger, messy application & no clean up. So I'll probably do a swatch post or NOTD with Greta, as it's gorgeous.  

Hope you guys enjoy and see you again soon.

Nubar Brilliant

Hi there, 

This is Nubar's Brilliant. This applied super sheer, but I did not mind, as I had to remove this the next day anyways. Its a pink scattered holo. To my surprise, (as I love pink polishes) out of all the holo polishes I have tried in my stash so far, it's my least favourite. I don't know why, but this just doesn't shout out to me. Maybe it's just not as holo as I wanted it to be. Brilliant has a WEAK scattered effect. I just got a flash here and there, under artificial lighting. Saying that, adding a top coat may have contributed to dulling out the holo effect.

Nubar Brilliant: 3 coats
Seche Vite Top Coat

BK Diamond Duet no 20

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you BK Diamond Duet Nail polish in no 20. I just love this polish. (I got 10 bottles of this! I gave some to my sisters and cousin. LOL) Looking at the pictures, it looks as its a possible dupe for OPI's My Private Jet. I've haven't got the original version of MPJ, so can't do the comparison. I picked up the brown 1! :o( 


This too applied like a dream, and the brush size was perfect. I applied two coats, as I wanted it to be super opaque, however like no.10 I could have gotten away with 1 coat. I applied Seche Vite's top coat and still the holo effect was there, I was super impressed.


I had this on for a few days and got loads of compliments. I myself couldn't get over the gorgeous holographic colours and kept staring at my nails.


This is my favourite polish ever, no complaints with this polish. Loved everything about this. So glad I've got this polish in my collection.

BK Diamond Duet no 20: 2 Coats
Seche Vite Top Coat
Check out the holo yumminess!

Thought I'd add another pic, just to show you guys the pretty colours.

Ewww..... Please ignore my cuticles

What do you guys think?


I hope you all enjoy and hopefully see you again soon.

BK Diamond Duet no 10

Hi there,


Today I'm bringing you one of the few BK Diamond Duet polishes. Today's is BK no. 10. I first heard about this brand around a month ago, whilst researching Holographic nail polishes. I absolutely love this polish! BK no. 10 is a silvery grey polish, with a tinge of blue. I applied 1 coat and look how gorgeous it is. I couldn't believe it. I did not apply a top coat, so I could compare the results. (Review for BK no 20 coming soon.) I am in love with these polishes. The formula is amazing, the holo effect is gorgeous and they have a large colour range to choose from.

BK Diamond Duet no 10: 1 coat

The only complaint I do have about these polishes are........ the size. At 6ml, that won't last me long, so what did I go and do? I got few of each colour, so hopefully I wouldn't run out. 

What do you guys think? Isn't it just gorgeous?


I hope you all enjoy and hopefully see you again soon.

Marks & Spencers Rainbow

WARNING PIC HEAVY!


Hi there, 


Today 'm bringing you Mark's & Spencers Rainbow. I managed to FINALLY get hold of this polish. I've been lusting after it for 2 weeks, but kept forgetting to pop into Mark's. Luckily for me I forgot, as this at the moment, is buy 1 get 2^nd for half price, so picked up 2 , as I didn't really need any of the other colours. I love this polish. It's super holo. I applied 2 thin coats without a top coat. I'll let the picture's do the rest of the talking.

Marks & Spencer Rainbow: 2 coats

Sorry for the photo spam. I tried to catch it in different angles, so the true gorgeous colours will show.


I hope you all enjoy and hopefully see you again soon.
