China Glaze Hologlam Collection - Part 2 ♥

Hello everyone! I am back with Part 2 of the China Glaze Hologlam Collection! Today I am going to be showing you Cosmic Dust (the light grey) and all three of the blues - as well as a comparison of all three blues at the end.

If you missed my post on Part 1 of this collection, click here.




The formula on all of these is fantastic - they are nearly one-coaters but I used two in all of the photos. The only thing that I don't 100% love about these is that they are semi-metallic in finish, which is typical of linear holos. I think I have grown accustomed to the softer finish of the "tightly-scattered" holos that so many indies are doing now, and doing so well (think A-England, Above the Curve, AquaDaisy, Chirality, etc.). But even with that, I am still in love with each and every one from this collection. No top coat in any of the photos. 



Let's start with Cosmic Dust - the light grey/silver (light when compared to the other gray in this collection - Galactic Gray - which was in my first post). I like that this one is darker than most typical silver holos, it makes it much more wearable for people like me with super pale skin.

Next we have the lightest of the 3 blues, Sci-Fly By. This is a soft blue but is still very well pigmented.

Next we have Take a Trek, a medium dusty blue.  This one even leans a tiny bit teal in some lighting.

Now for the darkest blue (and also my favorite of the blues), Strap on Your Moonboots! This is a very deep, rich navy blue - it may just be one of my very favorite blues in my collection.

And for the blue comparison that I promised you (they are all quite different but I thought it would be good to have a side-by-side-by-side shot of all three) -

What do you think of these? I really love this collection. I will have the final four in this collection to show you tomorrow so stay tuned!

These should be available in Sally Beauty stores soon, if not now. I have heard that they are currently available at sallybeauty.com.



Thanks for reading and happy polishing! ♥
