Swatch: Nabi Holographic Navy Blue

Nabi Holographic Navy Blue

Nabi Holographic Navy Blue is a beautiful deep blue holographic with green flash. I love the colour, but the holographic effect for this polish is kinda weak.

Can you spot the little green flash? Of course it's more obvious in real life.. I just had some problems capturing them on the camera.

I didnt have any blue holo polishes in my stash like this as well. All my blue holos are much lighter than this. Love the unique deep blue shade of this polish!

I did a comparison with China Glaze Take A Trek as I thought it might be similar to the denim blue of Take A Trek.. As you can see, they are nothing alike. =P

I also did a quick comparison with Jade Hypnose. Jade Hypnose like most of my other blues is much lighter than Nabi Navy Blue, and have a hint of green in it.

Verdict: This polish is beautiful if you ignore the fact that it is actually a holographic polish. Holo-wise, it's a little disappointing for me. Would you get it just for it's colour?

Swatch: China Glaze Take A Trek

Finally! The last of the Hologlam 2013 collection! Today I have swatches of China Glaze Take A Trek!


Take A Trek is a cool denim holographic polish from the China Glaze Hologlam 2013 collection and this is absolutely beautiful!!


Application-wise, I used a normal base coat and there was bald spots for the first coat, but the second coat covered them up pretty well.


OMG, I have to say this again & again.. Take A Trek is absolutely gorgeous!! Holo-ness is normal grade but the colour! Who can resist denim?! Denim holo!


I love this! I think it's my favourite of the collection! And to think it's placed at the last! I totally chose to swatch them at random and I think this is fate. Save the best for the last. LOL


Finally I'm done! What do you think of this collection? Love them? or just meh? I totally love them! Holos all the way! Keep them coming please!

I'll be doing a post consolidating all these swatches of the Hologlam collection soon!
