Americal Apparel Light Year


I am a sucker for glitters, they can be really fun to use. I don't have anything quite like Light Year, as every time a nail polish has large holographic glitter, it seems to be mixed with other types of glitter. This one looks a bit like fish scales. here I'm wearing one coat over AA Angeline.
I probably wouldn't wear it over all my nails - it seems a bit too much, but as an accent I like it.

Holographic Wheels


I was recently asked to show all my holographic polishes, so here they are. I managed to photograph the wheels in the sun, but not the bottles. When it comes to holographic polishes I really don’t care about the brand, even the most ordinary companies can make beautiful holographic beauties. I used two coats of each polish and of course all of them are more holographic in real life.

First wheel

  1. Make Up Store Greta (probably the most holographic polish I own, but such a pain to use)
  2. China Glaze OMG
  3. Golden Rose 112
  4. Golden Rose 108
  5. Sincero H7
  6. OPI DS Sapphire
  7. China Glaze Kaleidoscope Him Out
  8. China Glaze DV8
  9. OPI DS Glamour
  10. OPI DS Fantasy
  11. OPI DS Extravagance
  12. OPI DS Original
  13. OPI DS Amethyst
  14. China Glaze He’s Going In Circles
  15. Golden Rose 115
  16. China Glaze L8R G8R
  17. China Glaze GR8
  18. China Glaze FYI

Bottles:

Second wheel has polishes that have holographic glitter in it or weak holo effect that only is visible in bright direct sunlight.

  1. Franken top coat
  2. American Apparel Light Year
  3. OPI Golden Rainbow
  4. Depend #58
  5. Sincero H21
  6. OPI DS Passion (very weak holo only visible in sunlight)
  7. OPI Teenage Dream
  8. China Glaze Medallion
  9. China Glaze Mahogani


Bottles:


I probably have other polishes with holographic glitter in it, but the amount is negligible, plus a couple of ugly frankens.

American Apparel Angeline


The second half of my week sucked. I'm trying to overcome yet another hurdle on the way to getting my degree, but the bureaucracy is just killing me.
So the cheer myself up I'm wearing Angeline a bright pink creme polish. While I'm sure you can find a dozen other colours like this, I like the formula on this one. Here I am wearing just one coat of polish, and no top coat. Awesome!

American Apparel Poppy


This polish has been a lemming of mine for a while. But as it is usually the case there is no American Apparel store for thousands of miles around. Poppy is a beautiful red with a hint of coral. But the nicest thing about the polish is the formula, it's on the thick side but it means that this needs only one coat! It goes on smoothly and lasts for about 3 days.
