These polishes were provided to me by Glam Polish for swatches and my honest review.
All photos in this post are taken under artificial light, using Talon Super Swatch & Peel base coat by Nail Hoot, (a clear peel-able vinyl base), and topped with Glisten & Glow HK Girl topcoat. Matte swatches are topped with Nina Ultra Pro matte topcoat.
Let's get into the swatches!
I was once again impressed with the formulas from Glam Polish. For polishes that are so packed full of flakes, shimmer, glitter, etc., every single one covered easily in two coats.
The Last Holo
Rose Gold Intense Holographic with ultra holo glitter.
2 coats + topcoat
The holo in this one lives up to the “intense” description. WOW! It’s so bright and sparkly and really beautiful in all lighting. I’m showing a macro in low lighting so you can really see the added glitters. Love this one!
Return Of The Shimmer
Sparkly Black Holographic with strong pink shimmer, ultra holo glitter and fine holo micro glitter.
2 coats + topcoat
This one had an amazing formula, especially considering it’s jam packed with shimmer. This is one magical polish! It’s basically a galaxy in a bottle. Seriously, the next time you want galaxy nails, just paint on two easy coats of this and you’re done.
The Phantom Flakie
Deep Purple Holographic with shifting multichrome flakies.
2 coats + topcoat
You may know by now that I don’t always love purple, but man is this one rich shade of purple! It’s so regal and saturated, I ended up really liking it. The holo is very intense and glowing, and it’s surprisingly beautiful matte, where you can really see the flakies.
Revenge Of The Flakies
Deep Teal Holographic with shifting multichrome flakies and a hint of ultra holo glitter.
2 coats + topcoat
Two easy coats, super rich color, strong holo and multi chrome flakes. What’s not to love? The sun made a guest appearance while I was wearing this shade, so I’m including two sun shots to show just how strong the holo is. Gorgeous!
The Holo Strikes Back
Emerald Intense Holographic with ultra holo glitter.
2 coats + topcoat
This was VERY opaque! Short nails may be able to get away with one coat. I love this happy shade of green and the holo is amazingly strong.
I ended up loving all of these sparkly polishes, but The Last Holo (extremely holographic rose gold… be still my heart!) and The Holo Strikes Back (the most fun and happy shade of holographic green) are my favorites.
Be sure to mark your calendars for the release! Thursday, August 3rd 2pm EST USA, www.glampolish.com.au
