Today I have a very interesting combo for you all; a couple of weeks ago I managed to score a Deborah Lippmann duo from a HSN clearance sale one of the polished that came in that duo was Don't Tell Mama, and the other day I had some credit from Copious.com and a bought a Spectraflair Holographic pigment top coat. I thought it might be fun to layer these two polishes for a darker holographic look.
But first I have some pictures of Don't Tell Mama on its own.
Above is two coats of Don't Tell Mama. I have to say I was not as impressed with this color on my nails as I was with it in the bottle. In the bottle it looks like a dark iridescent teal color, but on my nails it looked like a very dark grayish green with minimal amounts of shimmer. I thought the color looked very flat and in most light looked like it was just black polish.
Next I decided to jazz it up with two coats of the Holographic top coat. The top coat is made from a suspension base with 35 coarse grade Spectraflair holographic pigment. From what I have learned about Spectraflair a 35 coarse grade pigment means that the pigment is very holographic even indoors, and it truly lives up to that description! It is so holographic and I am in love with it. I will let the pictures show you the rest.
I used two coats of the holo top coat, but one would definitely show a lot of the amazing holographics too! You can see all the colors of the rainbow and it is so beautiful! I cannot stop staring at my nails!

Love that holographic top coat....where did you get it if you don't mind me asking....what brand is it....I totally want it!
ReplyDeleteI bought the holo top coat on Copious.com, when you sign up you get $10 free credit to spend. I used credit to pay for this bottle and I only payed a penny for it. I will include my referral link below if you are interested in signing up. They give a lot of free credit offers too so it's pretty worth it. The top coat is from an independent maker who does not have a name for her brand, she just makes holographic top coats. I will include a link to her Copious listings for you to check out as well. I really like it and the formula is nice. I highly recommend it. It is the best holo polish that I own.
