I absolutely adore this collection because the colors remind me so so much of Animal Crossing's fall and mushroom palettes. btw how do you get nails shaped so perfectly?? they're perfect and i want mine to look just like that buuuut i always screw it up xP As for my favorite combo, while I bought Brick Wall and Fallen Flake, I think Modest Moss with it is just sooo warm and cozy, especially when matte! the dark green background really makes the flakes stand out so much. It makes me think of walking down a cobblestone street lined with potted ferns and crispy crunchity leaves underfoot
omg yes i can see that!! 🥹🍄🍂 and aw thank you! i have a video I did a few months ago about my nail shaping + care :) it def can take some practice, I screw up sometimes too 🥲 yess Modest Moss is soo pretty right! i was surprised I ended up loving that more than Brick Wall! omg i love the picture you painted with that description too, i’m transported right there with you 😍🌳🍂
I adore Holo Taco crèmes!!! They are absolute perfection 😊 And they’re not $14, they’re $12 😉 Thank you so much for the fantastic content and all the hard work you put into comparisons. It is so appreciated!!! ❤
omg thank you for the correction! I always get mixed up remembering prices between different brand AND finishes lol 😅 i do think they’re still a bit steep though 🙈 but thank you soo much !! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
If you like Fallen Flake Taco, you should try ILNP's Ultra Chrome Flakies! I was actually hoping you'd maybe have a comparison to Glory from that line. Clearly needing comparisons is a good excuse for you to try more ILNP toppers, right? 😅
haha yeah someone else suggested Glory!! sadly I only have Compass, Confetti and Empress as far as ILNP toppers go, tbh I wasn’t a huge fan of multichrome flakies back when they first launched them 😝 maybe I’ll add Glory to my wishlist 🤭 as much as I love doing comparisons, it makes me run out of room MUCH faster lol 😅
I love this collection and can’t wait for mine to arrive. Mulitchrome flake toppers are my personal favorite (love the ones from ILNP) and Fallen Flake is unique to the others that I have. I too would have passed on Nightshade but I do appreciate that it is a dusty shade. Unpopular opinion, I am secretly hoping my Brick Wall has a slight more orange lean like yours as that to me is fall red 😁
yay hopefully it’ll arrive soon enough, holo taco is insanely fast with their shipping! and ooh i forgot about ILNP’s multichrome toppers! i’m glad Fallen Flake is different from those though. & yeah def agree about appreciating Nightshade’s dustiness, i’m glad it’s filled a hole I didn’t know I had in my collection 😝 and omg if your Brick Wall ends up more red we should totally trade 🤣 but i’m so curious to see what others say about it!
@@PolishedYogiMy set just arrived. Brick Wall leans on the orange side too, which makes me happy. I had two polishes that are super similar. Northern Nail Polish Lake Superior Agate - a brighter version of Brick Wall. Orly x NASA Perseverance - would be a perfect dupe except it has a little bit of shimmer.
Great Review! I LOVE this entire collection which is rare for me! Perfect for the Fall season and the topper is perfect over any of the shades for the Fall effect as well 🍁🍂🍁
Beautiful color story and great formula! My favorites is Brick Wall and the topper. However, I already have KBS 'Take it or leaf it', that's pretty much a dupe for the topper :)
omg how pretty!! just looked it up and totally forgot about that shade, but had a feeling there was already something similar on the market lol. I think Fallen Flake is just tinier flakies, but still nearly identical! I do love the slightly larger ones in KB though 😍🍂
@@PolishedYogi you're right about that. I think ILNP also has a similar/same topper. Don't know the name but 'NurseJackie ' mentioned it in one of her topper videos. She said the ILNP one is a dupe for KBS, that one might have smaller flakies as well. Good to have all the options :)
Great review as always! I'm always obsessed with your comparison swatches🥰 I thought the whole color story of this collection was just stunning! And I'm so so excited to pick up Nightshade especially!💜💜💜
thank you soo much!! 🥰🥰 totally agree this color story is probs my favorite that we’ve seen for fall releases 😍🍁 and happy to hear you’re picking up Nightshade, its really pretty & unique! 💜
I love me a dusty, warmer more muted color palette! I did end up ordering the bundle since I don't have any similar shades to this drop. I cannot wait to get those baby food colors on my nails!! 😆
not the baby food colors 🤣 lmaoo but no i’m excited for you too!! yeah surprisingly these are pretty unique to my collection color wise, kind of like the pastels earlier this year! i’m happy to have them, esp that warmer dusty pink 😍
I’ll just chime in with enthusiasm for ILNP flakies. I like the magic toppers myself (one reason Imlike them is they come off as easily as creams). This Holo Taco has some nice colors, but I don’t really like muted colors like this much…just not the best for my skin tone.
i haven’t tried them!! only a few of their micro metallic flakie toppers but thats super good to know! and aw yeah i get what you mean, hopefully their next launch (which i think is the Safiya collab right?!) will be more up your alley!
I held out a whole week after this bundle launched before I bought it. I’m patiently waiting for it to arrive. I’m slowly feeling the fall vibes with the cooler temperatures here this week. I enjoy your reviews and comparisons. Thanks for all you do☺️
ahh hopefully you won’t have to wait much longer! yess exactly its cooled down considerably here too so i’m starting to really embrace all the fall vibes haha. & aw thank you so much!! I really appreciate you watching and commenting 🤗🤗
You are the comparison queen! Thanks for all your hard work, its so helpful! Do you have Urbanised from Cirque to compare with Stay Grounded? And Matcha or Beatnik with Hot Pressed?
aw thank you!! i do my best 🥰 and I have Urbanized and Matcha, but not Beatnik; i’d say Urbanized is more of a true mustard yellow while Stay Grounded is like a light caramel, and Matcha is superrr bright and more of a true green next to Not Pressed! i hope that helps, i’ll compare them in my stories but DM me if you miss them! 🤗
I don’t know if it is still because I am still deep into summer mode over hear, but when I saw these I was not super excited about them. I don’t know what I was expecting. I think the colors are all super fall, and super pretty! I think maybe I just feel like I have polishes similar already in my collection? With that said…I love Low Key Blushing, and the topper! 😍 I am so glad nothing was LE so when I am feeling more in a fall mood, I can go ahead and grab them then! 👏🏻
i totally get what you mean! these kind of feel like the pastels to me in a way, where they aren’t groundbreaking shades exactly lol but they ended up being pretty unique to what I had (though like the pastels, tou never really NEED so many options). i’m so glad you’re loving Lowkey Blushing too!! i know its the most basic shade but its still so pretty lol and of course the topper! yes definitely happy these aren’t LE, i think a lot of people will hold off until the Safiya collab before deciding to add these to their carts hehe
@@PolishedYogi Exactly! I feel like I will end up get low key blushing and the topper for sure, but I’m glad to not feel rushed to do so. Low key blushing seems so basic, BUT it is super pretty! And sometimes I just love a neutral like that! 🥰
oo hopefully someone is able to compare those two for you! I don’t have the OPI shade but I would say Holo Taco’s is more muted/dusty so not exact dupes (I think!)
I think moss in the Northeast is more green due to denser forest cover, rain and lower temps. Nightshade is a no-brainer for me cause I need all the purples. You’re correct it is unique.
@@PolishedYogi 😀 I lived in Connecticut for 17 years. My backyard was adjacent to an old park that had huge old trees. Lots of moss there to see as I walked the dog.
they’re definitely more similar than mooncat and HT! I would say Druzy is a touch lighter (at least in the bottle, sometimes they apply darker) and it has a subtle shimmer too. you can DM me so I can show you a side by side!
i get that! maybe you can wait until more people get their collections to see more swatches, to help you decide how much you really like them :) or! i’m sure Holo Taco will do another BF sale so maybe you can grab a few then!
I love Cristine Im 💯 a Simply stan and this collection is beautiful and I rhink it's so pretty (for someone else) but dusty shades are just not my jam, even though I love fall. I love all your videos though and will watch you do color comparisons any (every) day 💗
aw i’m sorry these aren’t your jam, but i’m glad you still appreciate the colors bc they’re def super pretty!! I know its still a month away but I can’t wait to see what we get with the Safiya collab, hopefully those will be more up your alley too! and aw thank you so much, I really appreciate that!! 🥹🫶🏼
I bought the set and an extra of the brick red polish. I’m disappointed in the brick red. I thought it was going to be more muted. It looked better on their website and it doesn’t look like what you showed us. It’s too bright of a red and now wish I hadn’t bought an extra one of it. It’s not giving what I thought it would
yeah I was bummed by the brick red too! I’m pretty sure I mentioned it looking different than whats on the website as well.. I wonder if there’s just some color variance that happens when making batches, or if its just it looking super different depending on lighting and all that. 🤷🏻♀️ I heard their CS is great though so you might be able to get refunded for the extra one
i knoww nail polish has def gotten more expensive over the last year or so (like everything else 😪) but i’m glad there’s brands like ILNP & KBShimmer that have great specialty shades (& cremes) for reasonable prices!
i can see what you mean by that 😅 stan culture really is so annoying to deal with.. but I try not to focus on them lol. sometimes i’m a fan of what Holo Taco puts out and other times i’m not, and thats okay! there will always be something for everyone 😌 so glad you love my vids though!! 💞
Always love how much effort you put into your comparisons
thank you!! they can def take longer than the actual swatch portion to do lol but i’m glad they’re helpful :)

so glad it was helpful! which one did you like more??
@@PolishedYogi I like the brightness of not pressed better!
Love the topper from this collection. Definitely reminds me of fall in a bottle 🍁
its sooo pretty!! i love it so much 🍂
Thank you for the comparison section 😊 wasn’t expecting the swatches too. Super helpful
so glad you found them helpful! 😁
Love the color palette of the collection ❤
so glad you do too! its super cozy 🥰
Not pressed is the perfect pea soup color! And yeah I’m not seeing that as mossy green but it is pretty 💚
omg yess total pea soup vibes!! 😝💚

right!! super pretty! 🤩🍁💜
Ohh, loved the purple with the topper!
such a great combo!! 💜🍁
Fallen Flake Taco is perfection!
truly!! 🍁✨
Fallen flake overnight shade is what I’m wearing right now, i’m absolutely in love with it❤❤❤
loooove!! 🤩🤩
I am looking forward to get my hands on 'Not Pressed'.💚 Btw, 'Fallen Flake Taco' and 'Not Pressed' is a beautiful combo.😊
It's such a pretty combo! 😍 so perfect for fall 💚🍂
Yeah.🥰
Thank you forndoing those green comparisons, i have all those you have and am wondering if I need the new holo cremes

of course!! 💗

aw thank you!! i do my best 🥰 and I have Urbanized and Matcha, but not Beatnik; i’d say Urbanized is more of a true mustard yellow while Stay Grounded is like a light caramel, and Matcha is superrr bright and more of a true green next to Not Pressed! i hope that helps, i’ll compare them in my stories but DM me if you miss them! 🤗
@@PolishedYogi ooh thank you! I’ll watch out for those. I was hoping Cirque had my fall cremes sorted but I’m guessing not! 🙈😂
Also...same! I was thinking brick wall was more the color of Zoya jackie too

ILNP Glory is a very close dup for the flakie.
ohh gorgeous!! yeah it looks really similar, maybe no magenta and slightly larger flakies but def close enough!
I would like to see modest moss next to OPI’s rated pea-g!
oo hopefully someone is able to compare those two for you! I don’t have the OPI shade but I would say Holo Taco’s is more muted/dusty so not exact dupes (I think!)

I have not been tempted to buy HT...until now.
i’m glad you’re really feeling this collection! it’s super pretty and perfect for the coming season 😍🍂
Is Mooncat a dolls house similar to olive ave druzy? Been trying to find a dupe for that one for a while now. Thanks!

I feel like simplynaillogical doesn’t like pink 😞 so few shades of pink !!
i knoww but this is a great one!! after SO many cool toned pinks i’m really happy about this one lol but still hope we get more in the future 😝
I normaly do not like pink , but that pink .. now we talk!
theres just something so lovely about a warm, dusty pink!! 😙🤌
I’m just stating to feel anything more than $13 for nail polish regardless of finish is expensive. I’m over it 😢

@@PolishedYogiyes!!! Those two are amazing ❤❤❤
I am not interested in paying 14 dollars for a creme. Period. I would pay that for a magnetic, cool flakies, or even a special holographic.
thats fair! it’s def a steep price for just cremes, I agree.
Holo Taco cremes are $12 not $14
@@WoolsaAnd definitely worth it.
@@susannoel7760 My job pays 15$ an hour. That means that one, boring (imho) creme polish will cost nearly an hour of my working time. Can't do it.
The shades are very nice but basic. The pricepoint is a bit much for cremes, so I would have to pass on this collection. TFS!
totally valid, while the actual colors were unique to my collection I can understand passing them up, especially for cheaper alternatives 😅
I think Holo Taco is overhyped and stans can be super crazy aggressive against any other brand that makes holo, but I love all your vids!💖💝💗
