@SimplyNotLogical Год назад

Thank you Kelli for this thorough and helpful review! This was a trickier formula to make (and then explain😅) and your tips and demo is super helpful in showing people how to work with this type of formula! Thank you for always giving great nail painting education, many appreciate it😌💅

@pnuthead13 Год назад

I appreciate the work both Kelli and Kyle with Color Expression put into swatching. I learned a lot about working with this formula even though I’m a veteran painter. And also - thank you for putting out clear information and beautiful, interesting polish for us to enjoy!

@GlassShark86 Год назад

These are for sure a very specialty polish where you have to follow specific directions, but I will give it to Holo Taco on this one: they are 100% exactly as described so you know what you're getting and how they will behave. Picked up the new base coat and just the silver chrome. It's really fun and looks better than I thought in person.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

The silver truly is a classic, I really love that one!!

@6852660 Год назад

Thank you for honestly highlighting the limitations of this formula! I am all about innovation and brands trying new things, but these polishes do not perform like typical nail polish and I think it’s important that people know that!

@KelliMarissa Год назад

I'm glad you appreciated it! I know people don't love "negative" reviews but I agree, it's important that people know what they're buying!! (Editing to add: this is not a negative review. I liked the polishes, as you can all tell 😝)

@timainwhitewolf Год назад

I agree with you, however, to be fair, the brand is very open about the qualities of these polishes and what you can and can't expect from them. I believe if you never saw this but watched their videos and read their disclaimers, you would be informed enough so you wouldn't feel cheated.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

@@timainwhitewolf but that's also what reviews are for :) I mentioned this stuff BECAUSE the brand mentioned it, and not everyone reads disclaimers or watches brand promotional materials before purchasing.

@timainwhitewolf Год назад

@@KelliMarissa you are of course right, and I agree that it's very important to mention good and bad in reviews! My response wasn't meant to say anything negative towards your video at all! I apologize if it felt that way! You did an amazing job (as always!)

@christinawoodard3754 Год назад

Yes. I like wearing polishes two days anyway. For me it’s a two coater w a topper, and a top coat. Too plain for me otherwise.

@Kiterpuss Год назад

While a one coat formula is convenient when applying, I've found the thinness makes any one coat manicure last poorly on my friable nails. Coupled with the recommended lack of top coat, this made this collection a no go for me for now. I'm glad you mentioned that it's okay to have two coats even if a polish doesn't "need" it.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

I totally get what you mean! That's why I usually like to do two coats anyway, unless I'm working with a pretty thick polish haha

@tammytuttle2355 Год назад

I use super glossy taco on the chrome. Collection and it last really well, so give it a try

@AlmalexyaBlue Год назад

To be fair, this polish is not advertised as long lasting. In fact, it's noted on the website that it's more for big impact for one night, and to apply the same day if you want to wear for an event. I'm with you on thinness though. I always apply two, possibly three, layers of polish, at least two of top coat. I hate when it's too thin

@EmmaCreatively Год назад

I actually really love this set, but then again, metallic foils and other metallic finishes are my ride or dies. I am currently wearing a full mani of Trophy Life (because I will die on the hill of gold polishes) and it's day four and I have no chips! I work with my hands, too, and have showered and washed my hands as normal. I did decide to do two layers of polish, and then I went for the top coat to help the durability, and honestly, once it settles and dries, I feel like I'm getting the normal amount of reflective chrome shine that I would without the top coat. But day four and still going strong, so I'm feeling great about these. More metallics! More golds! Muahahahaaa!

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Ooh that's great to hear, I've been wanting to wear a full mani of one of these but I'm nervous about wear time haha!!

@EmmaCreatively Год назад

@@KelliMarissa I think for your routine of 1-2 manicure changes a week these would work for you! And honestly the top coat, at least for the gold, doesn't hurt it at all.

@caseyrose000 Год назад

I usually love Cristine’s thoroughness when it comes to her polish drops, but with this one I almost feel like she was overly thorough to an extreme, and scared a way a lot of people including die hards. I’m not the best at doing my nails but honestly the formula is so smooth I figured it out after one nail and have not had a single issue with the polishes at all.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Honestly I do appreciate the transparency from the brand on the situation with the formula! I think I would have been disappointed with them if I assumed they acted like regular polish and found that they apply/wear differently, but knowing that info I'm able to truly enjoy them!

@EmilyGDesign Год назад

@@KelliMarissa I also appreciate your showing two coats to deal with it. I have done that before when I mess up my cuticles! 😅 The polishes may be one coat but the trickiness level is reduced with two.

@InsoIence Год назад

But then again, imagine if she didn't inform people properly, they bought the product and thought they were duped. I feel it's better to lose a sale than a customer.

@WoWLinry Год назад

this collection was a hit for me aqua foil is 10/10 my favorite. I feel like Cristine went too hard on the disclaimers and might have scared a few people off of buying it lol. tho I am surprised to see how divisive chrome finish is in the nail polish community lol

@lildarkvixen Год назад

A tip I read if you're worried about imperfections showing - use a smoothing base and then the quick dry base! :]

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Honestly it works with regular base coats too so you probably don't even need the quick dry base!

@michellej5616 Год назад

Smart tip.

@littlejoh713 Год назад

I skipped this set, because I am honestly not a huge fan of chromes overall, multichrome or single colored. I do however enjoy seeing brands experiment with new finishes and colors, so I was still excited to see the collection! I think it's also good that they disclaim that the formula isn't long lasting at all, that they're upfront about the formulas downsides. And I usually paint my toenails with holo glitter that sticks better so I don't have to paint them that often. Also gives me an excuse to use a formula I love the look of but hate the removal process of on my fingers! 😂

@Ehlair Год назад

I'm in the minority people who really likes pearlescent finishes and others where you can see the brush strokes, so these polishes are very interesting to me! They also kind of remind me of a smooth version of the starrily foil polishes (bellatrix and pegasus)? Great to hear your thoughts on these! :)

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Ooh yeah great point, they're a similar sort of vibe! I do love a good brushstrokey manicure, really elongates the nails haha!!

@alexsmellie Год назад

I just wish there was a pale ish blue but Iron Violet is defo a fave for me too 🙌🏻

@KelliMarissa Год назад

It's sooo gorgeous!!

@KaRaan23ro Год назад

Together with the tea and coffee collections, this is my favorite. Nice colours, good coverage, versatile.... Love this collection. I recreated the stained glass effect did by Cristine and next step is trying stamping :)

@panthergirl1256 Год назад

As someone with very ridged nails and questionable hand dexterity, I suspect this collection is not (yet) for me despite being a big HT fan. I appreciate how transparent HT is on the website pages about how they're not standard polishes. Once I get better at painting efficiently and have a bit of cash to spare, I may have to take a chance on the colored ones!

@bleeka325 Год назад

I do appreciate how they are upfront with the expectations the customer should have

@michellej5616 Год назад

You do you, of course. I tried them for the first time this morning, and I found that because I'm applying a thicker coat to start, it feels a little forgiving. Also, somebody in the comments suggested putting smoothing base down, then the quick dry, then the chrome. I think that's a smart suggestion.

@kweeniepiez Год назад

I'm a total beginner and I freaking love this polish. lasts about 4-5 days and under 10 mins to repaint them down to dry. I wish all polish dried this fast!

@KelliMarissa Год назад

It really is so impressive how fast they dry haha that's why I'm so excited to use them for nail art!!

@charlieTtea Год назад

I did buy this collection! For the past week I wore a reverse french tip (a cuticle tip, if you will) with world's first and the accent being plain black. I did wear a top coat too. I was shocked to see that the silver actually reflected colors in my vicinity! It looks SO good in person. In practice, I found this formula to be easier and longer lasting than the warnings have suggested. If you're like me, the biggest impact on how long my polish lasts is how many days I have work that week. Basically, don't be afraid to try this collection out if you're interested!

@flyaway1470 Год назад

I've had this collection on my nails for days and love it, I didn't realize there was controversy over it until looking at the comments lol! After four days I only have chips on my index nails, which is normal for me. I did put top coat on but I didn't notice a huge difference anyways. I put the chrome polish over an existing Mani (I was too excited!) and because of that I had three nail tips with imperfections, but I just sponged on a purple Holo glitter gradient at the top and it's gorgeous!! 💜🦄

@PirateFrodoPotter Год назад

Thank you for the honest and fair review!!! I feel like a lot of the reviews for this collection have been overly harsh. As always, your swatches are stunning and your opinions are well thought out! 😁

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Yeah, I'm surprised people haven't been loving the recent HT releases! I think they're pretty great as long as you know what to expect from them 🥰

@notprettyugly Год назад

I was really anticipating your video on this collection and clicked as quick as I could! I had a feeling you would appreciate these polishes 😊 I love that holotaco tries new things, even if they're risky, and also like that they're pretty transparent even with things that might cause fewer sales, rather than let us discover these things after we've already bought them. I've seen a lot of swatch reviews and comments that think it's "too weird" and "too complicated" of a collection so that's been kind of disappointing haha They're definitely not for everyone but I'm glad that you liked them! I'm still waiting on my box to arrive >< I already KNOW aquafoil will be my fave!! On my toes, I currently have Georgette with Chemistry as a magnetic topper, both from Cirque Colors and both polishes I discovered through you!

@cynbabearielrain Год назад

Oh wow! These are just gorgeous! I love the Aquafoil too, it's beautiful! I've got to get that one and the purple. Beautiful!

@NailsfromAtoB Год назад

I've been doing my nails for over a decade and I definitely had to redo a few nails with this formula! I ended up deciding to do only one coat with top coat only on my accents to see how it wore. Iron Violet and Aquafoil are just 😍 really a struggle to pick a favorite. I paint my toes at least once a month, sometimes twice!

@Stef_T-G Год назад

I got my box yesterday and I really want to do some nail art that Cristine did and show us on stream :) They're gorgeous! I really prefer the purple, aqua and silver!

@holaizzy Год назад

BEAUTIFUL!

@PlatinumCyGirl Год назад

Omg I love that purple and aqua foil! 🤩

@madeleinegombert661 Год назад

@lillianjesson Год назад

Love these polishes. They are gorgeous and perfect for people who aren’t allowed to have painted nails for their work but might want to have a nice painted look for an evening or the weekend or some thing because they don’t take a lot of time to apply and it’s no big deal that they don’t last a long time and they also come off really easy with nail polish remover compared to a lot of other polishes. Definitely a fan.

@lozenger8 Год назад

@ReillyWilde Год назад

I usually wear Orly Nail Defense on my toenails to protect them from breaking from exercise & tons of walking at work. In the Spring & Summer, I usually wear color on my toes if it’s warm enough for sandals. If not, then just Nail Defense. I recently wore Orly Rose Colored Glasses, a sheer pink that makes your nails look like your nails, but better. It was too cold to go barefoot so I’ll save the color for warmer weather. I always wear polish on my fingers & change it weekly. I enjoy the variety of colors. Thanks for sharing! ☘️

@LoyaFrostwind Год назад

Pink steel is fabulous! 😻

@black_rose4 Год назад

I picked up World's First and the base because I'm fussy with silvers but this one honestly looked like it could be good. I did a few tester swatches before applying which I think helped me get a feel for it. I'm someone who switches up their polish every other day so honestly longevity isn't an issue for me. And honestly I'm willing to overlook a lot of possible flaws if something is pretty, which this polish definitely is

Hi Kelli, 🎉 excellent swatcher / swatchin review LOL 😂 I have seen these new chrome polishes reviewed by other nail-istas and I think you definitely have useful experiential tips and tricks which make your review unique, enjoyable and helpful to me 🎉 Thanks for sharing! I have to get the pink chrome ❤ love that pink foil effect, and it helps to hear your comments on the formula on that one. Btw I think your hair is cute trimmed, and I love your bat necklace 👌 plus amazing violet eyeshadow!

@livinginbliss Год назад

I just tried Aqua Foil today on my tiny, ridgy, peely crappy nails and was pleasantly surprised! I love how they look! I was prepared to be disappointed but so glad I tried this collection. I only did one coat and resisted the urge to swipe more than 4 times. So fun! I’m probably going to try the purple one next.

@m.louish.9880 Год назад

This nail polish collection reminded me a lot of the Sally Hansen Chrome collection from over a year ago. Your recommendations helped me apply it better. Thank you!

@pattiespolishcorner3274 Год назад

Hi, I have been looking for a new video from you. Actually, I was patiently waiting for this video. Lol 😆 I got my collection last Friday. I love them. Of course, I had to experiment, I have two nails with annoying ridges, so I added one to two coats of smoothing base, then the HT quick dry base, and it did cover up my ridges. I also noticed that two coats of the HT quick dry base smoothed out my nails nicely also. Great video review, as always.

@blindfoldme4841 Год назад

@nataliesirota2611 Год назад

Yes, to painting toe nails! In the cooler seasons I usually do so once a month. In the warmer seasons much more often.

@greenbean381 Год назад

OBSESSED with this collection, I really can't get enough of it. I didn't expect to be crazy for it but they're beautiful. Personally I don't even like the "mirror" finish some people are whining these don't have. Buy your nail powders n go if that's what you want- not every collection will be for everyone and that's fine.

@myvirginnails7947 Год назад

I'm lucky enough to already be familiar with a formula like this, so I found I have absolutely no problem with the Holo Taco ones. I expected them to chip in a day without topcoat because I'm used to chrome polishes from other brands chipping or discolouring very quickly, but currently on day 3 and none of the colours have chipped so far. Also, they're still as shiny as on day one. I'm extremely happy with these!

@sheilasamuels1066 Год назад

@saharamist3744 Год назад

I love chromes so much. The grip that Essie’s Penny Talk had on me about 7 years ago was strong! That said I really only want Iron Violet so I’ll wait until I have more wish listed. I paint my toenails way more frequently than my fingernails. I think the fact that I can hide them with socks or shoes makes me less worried if they chip or my cuticle gets stained. I’m rough on my nails so I’m learning to be more gentle. Your recommendation for Orly Bonder Base has helped immensely though with my wear time!

@michellej5616 Год назад

I LOVE these. This formula is my favorite of all of the formulas she's done. (And I do have a lot of Holo Taco) The fact that the formula is thicker, dries quickly and has the thicker brush? That's perfect for me.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

I absolutely love their thicker brush! I wish it was in every bottle haha

@hollyj4529 Год назад

I bought the set and am planning to try them tonight. I was a lot more worried about whether I would like them before watching your review. I know I’ll feel more comfortable with 2 coats and I haven’t seen anyone else show that yet. Thank you!

This is why I always wait until your reviews to buy something! Out of all the reviews that I have seen of this collection, you are the only one who dared doing two coats even if the collection was wildly broadcasted as a one coater. I was really iffy on it, even if I love one coaters, but now that I've seen you swatch it in 2 coats, I absolutely love it 😍. My wallet thanks you 🤣

@mobuckey Год назад

Wow Pretty!! What a great idea Lighter Chromes for Spring and for use any time in my opinion not to mention one of my favorite kinds of polish. I think you did a great job and tips were super helpful.

@BeckyANails Год назад

Love your review as usual and I’m so happy for your tips and tricks with these polishes. They are definitely trickier than normal! I have a bad back so I have to get my toes done in the salon now but I only go once a month. When I did them at home it was usually every 2-3 weeks vs weekly for my fingernails.

I was unsure about these because I always struggle with doing little strokes so I don't think this line is for me, although I would kill for Aquafoil, it is soooo beautiful 😍😍 As far as the fun fact, I paint my toes usually only in summer when people can see them 😂 or if I attend an event where I wear sandals, but yeah if people don't see them then I don't bother with them 😂😂

Honestly same! I'm glad I saw the disclaimers first (from the brand) because now I can enjoy the polishes without feeling like I got a bad bottle or something haha

@PolishedHillary Год назад

Love your in depth guide on how to paint your nails with three polished thank you so much! Also to answer the question of the toes painting I paint my toes once a month at the beginning of the month to match the theme of the month. Like December I do green and red, January I do silver for a shiny new year February I do pink or red for Valentine’s Day, march I do green for saint Patrick’s day, April I do a rainy blue for the April showers that bring the flowers May I do pink and purple for flowers and so on and so forth for the other months! The only holiday or month theme I avoid is red white and blue for July because I’d rather do something I like since my birth month is July.

@lemondropcentral14 Год назад

I paint my toenails every month or so, and paint my nails every week. I also use Color Street nail strips occasionally too. I'll often use regular polish on my nails for the first half of the month, then the nails strips for the second half of the month because the nail strips typically last two weeks. Then I save the largest two nail strips from a set and put them on my big toenails! (For anyone who uses nail strips, keeping open sets in a zip lock bag in the freezer keeps them from drying out). Then I'll paint the rest of my toes a matching color to the strip on my big toe.

@KitKaleid Год назад

I also tried them for stamping, and yeah, they dry too fast. However, they are very nice for reverse stamping! The chrome shine is really pretty behind a black outline. Just be careful with fine lines. Since the formula is pretty heavy it can drag the stamp.

@katiesmovies Год назад

I paint my nails about every week and I paint my toes once or twice a month depending. As for this collection, I have issues with chipping when it comes to polishes I can use a topcoat with so I think this would just annoy me. However, I do like that they are putting out new formulas. Two this year is awesome.

@mmchromybooks Год назад

so pretty 😍 It makes me feel like this is an Easter Basket in a bottle 🤣

@meisbrenda Год назад

I was waiting for your videos! I missed ya! Btw I paint my toenails every week or every two weeks, depending on the occasion and how my polish looks. Also, I loved the review! I know that people might find it off-putting but I actually like that these polishes dry fast and you don’t have to use a top coat. I don’t mind them lasting a few days.

@NancySimonds Год назад

Love the chrome look and the colors are lovely. They look kind of bubbly though.

@mandyjess2108 Год назад

To answer your question, NO I definitely don't do pedicures as often as manicures haha. I love doing my nails (I use wraps rather than traditional polish, though. I have shaky hands/tremors, limited patience, and OCD. Which make it really hard to paint my own nails to my satisfaction lol. Wraps are so fun though! So yea, I love having my fingernails done, but almost never do my toes. Which is weird now that I'm thinking about it cuz I love having polish on my toes lol

@hiddentempest1313 Год назад

Got my collection yesterday and had to try these out asap. I think they're so fun. I love the colours together as a skittles mani. A little streaky as I've used a formula like this for the first time. But I agree, that it is easier to do two coats even if it would work as a one coater and I think it gets a better result when doing a thicker coat as I'm used to. But over all I have fun with these. Curious how long they will last without top coat.

I love chrome. I used to have similar to these from sally hansen in the early 00s, they made teal, purple, red, etc.. still have a few may be dried out. I Have always loved a super silver chrome.. I will probably get the silver & purple, maybe pink too.. They could be good for the base of stamping a design. I used to always have my toes painted in warmer times of year, I like sandals when I can but then I had this hurt foot problem and haven't worn polish on my toes for like 4 years or more now. I'm hardly outside anyway. I didn't match since toes last so much longer. Often did some kind of silver or gray purple, or regular purple or red.

Love your video as always ❤ this collection is maybe not for me, I really want more wear time, but I appreciate seeing your review! As far as pedicures go, I usually paint them every month or so, usually some fun bright color (bright blue is my fave!) but they never match my hands! I haven’t done them in the winter but might start again this spring!

@LoveNathasha Год назад

The last two are definitely the prettiest.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Agreed!! I love em!!

I love this collection - especially Aquafoil 🤩 It was a bit difficult to work with at first, but after figuring it out, I think these polishes are so cool. After my top coat dried fully, the shine came back to what it was before to coat. (I used Seche Vite Fast Dry) My only issue I had with top coat is I'm pretty heavy-handed and got some bubbles in it that are *super* noticeable to me with the reflectivity of the polishes.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

I did notice a bit of bubbling in mine too, and I used the Glossy Taco. I wonder why that happened!

I love when you apply a color you're kind of meh about and then just fall in love.

@deshadriancampbell7173 Год назад

I really like the collection. The colors are great! I paint my toes like once a month. It will match my hands at one point, but I change my nails once a week or every other week so it doesn't always match. During the winter months it's even less. Lol.

@nikigunn Год назад

My collection arrived Wednesday and I'm wearing them all as a skittle. Iron Violet is my favorite, then World's First. I had no problem applying the polishes except for the wide flat brush, which I don't like. I keep my nails short and except for my thumb, they're not wide so the brush doesn't give me much room to work. I used Seche Vite top coat and it didn't make that much of a difference in the finish for me. I don't paint my toenails as often but I want to redo them in the next few days. I think I'll stick with my usual color for them, OPI Happy Anniversary.

@justjenn1427 Год назад

Always appreciate your honest reviews! These colors are gorgeous. I was hemming and hawing over these but I think i will give them a try after watching this. The pink, the turquoise and plurple?? I really need them lol

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Yeah those colorful ones are just stunning!!!

@donnaharvill8210 Год назад

I think there is top coat made for chrome nail polish if my memory serves me correct. It's water based and we would use it and then put your other top coat on!

@susannoel7760 Год назад

It lasted 5 days on my non-dominate hand. On my dominate hand, my pointer finger chipped in 3 days and the rest the next day. I did use the fast dry base coat and SGT. Love them!! Pink being my fav.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Ooh that's awesome to hear!!

@saragillihan484 Год назад

My favorites are Iron Violet and Pink Steel.

@christonalva7032 Год назад

I must say that these one coat chrome polishes are absolutely one of the most stunning i've ever come across since so so long. I Love that Holo Taco paired it with the wide flat brush for the smoothest application. Pink steel is by far my most favourite and i've always dreamed of a chorome polish with that colour and Holo Taco made it true.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

They really did a great job with these! I can't wait to wear them in some nail art and get that chrome shine on my nails 😍

@hurricanepolish Год назад

Since I am not a fan of streaky polishes I passed on this collection but I do love that Cristine and HT are not afraid to try things… not every one is going to love every collection and that’s ok. I don’t paint my toes as frequently as my fingers, usually just every 2 weeks but I live in eternal summer south FL and wear flip flops a lot… I stick with holiday colors- Reds and pinks in February, greens in March… ect.

@MorticiaAttoms Год назад

As long as you're set and ready to go, they stamp beautifully.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Maybe it depends on the climate where you live haha! I feel like here in the desert, they dry too quickly 🙈 I'd probably have an easier time in NJ where I used to live haha!

@jenniferwellman5311 Год назад

I bought a few of them and the top coat, there were only a few that really caught my eye, the purple one and the pink. I too,love purple. I just picked up a few from mooncat ( Artemis’ Deathkiss ) gorgeous, almost fairy dust purple ( that’s how I would describe it ) give me a purple shade, and I will more than likely buy it…😂❤❤❤

@chasetaylor0000 Год назад

Been waiting for your review on these :D I bought the collection box and immediately put them on as soon as they arrived. I'm with the others who like to change their polish every few days, so longevity doesn't matter to me. I am appreciative that they were totally upfront about that though. I wore one coat with the base coat and no topcoat. I only experienced the same level of chipping that I'd expect from any polish. Such pretty spring colors and I will definitely be wearing them again for Easter. Aquafoil is my absolute favorite with Iron Violet being second. As far as toes go, I have a pedicure in February every year with my bestie for her birthday. I usually won't change that polish until summer...maybe...LOL! I don't go without shoes often and because of my back issues, I rarely wear sandals. So, it's kinda pointless for me to polish my toes all the time in different colors.

@pizzaandnailpolish Год назад

I got the three colored ones. I think they were stunning. I have been wearing my chrome nails for 4 days and they have been holding up very well. Compared to other chrome formulas I think these are superior. Ps I attempted stamping and didn’t work for me but will keep trying.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Yeah I have a feeling it's gonna be pretty tough to get these to stamp because they dry so fast haha! But I do love a quick dry polish so no complaints here 😂

@terryficello4028 Год назад

I just received aqua foil and iron violet. I wanted to try a couple before buying the whole set. They are beautiful. Had no problems with application. Probably the best chrome polish I have used so far. Hope Christine brings out more colors.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

Those are gorgeous picks IMO, my two faves!!

@sailorsylveon5610 Год назад

I just got my chrome collection in the mail today, super excited to try it out! I actually just painted my toes the other day, but I only do it a couple times a year lol. Last time I got them done was last September. Before that, June. I just don't really care for my toenails tbh probably bc I wear socks all the time hahah

@lisabell6022 Год назад

Ooh I like pink steel and the violet

@KelliMarissa Год назад

And they're so pretty together too!!

@heavymetaljess_ Год назад

These polishes look DRASTICALLY different after they dry so thanks extra for showing us that. I didn't feel too impressed with them wet but they get so much more mirror finish when they are dry! I'm hoping we get some crazy colors in this formula like lime green and fuchsia.

@tibbynibby Год назад

I was so excited for these and was really only planning on getting the silver but my sister bought me the set for my birthday 😭😭 I’ve had mine painted (one coat) for a week and it definitely doesn’t last as long . It first started chipping at the tip of my nails (I couldn’t brush under as suggested because i got shorties lol) but it was hardly noticeable at a distance. I made a bunch of mistakes while painting 🤣👍 I actually like how they look chipped 🙈 I’ve never liked doing my nails too often so it doesn’t bother me as much. I love the colors and i think the pink is actually my favorite (sorry silver 🥲). Idk if I’ve gotten out of my honeymoon phase with them but i love the colors so much

@lynnevetter Год назад

I just do my toenails about once every month or two. I have the Holo taco coffee nails right now. Been itching to do them again.

@elaynejuten9084 Год назад

Just put on this collection today after getting it in the mail. I only did one coat (love the suggestion for two, definitely going to try that next time). I also added a top coat and found that the mirror-like finish does come back after a bit! So top coat seems to be okay.

@KelliMarissa Год назад

It's definitely a subtle difference with the top coat, personally I'll probably choose top coat every time haha!

@elaynejuten9084 Год назад

@@KelliMarissa 100%! I've been hearing that it wears really similarly to other polishes with the top coat too!
