Would you be willing to do a cool tone versus warm tone video? 🤔 It confuses me but I have a feeling you’d make it make sense. 😊 Or if you already have a video, let me know. Thanks!
There’s also a channel called Style Me Jenn who helps you figure out your own color tones. The easiest description, though, is if you have a warm tone (golden) you often look better with the cooler side of the color wheel such as blues, , greens, purples and blue-toned reds. I don’t look good in large amounts of chartreuse or gold. I can wear it in a skittle. Some people look better with less contrast or need those warm tones to make their skin pop.
This is the basics of what I was taught, although I know others might disagree because color theory is complex! Each color has an overtone and an undertone. Warm overtone colors are those associated with fire: red, orange, yellow. Cool overtone colors are those associated with water: green, blue, purple/violet. Within almost every color, there are versions that have warm undertones and versions that have cool undertones (except orange, which is always warm). Generally, adding blue to a color makes the undertone cooler, while adding yellow makes it warmer. Adding black, white, or grey to a color can also make an undertone cooler. In these polishes, while both Electric Sweetener and Blue Rizzler have cool overtones, they differ in their undertones. The base of Electric Sweetener is warmer in undertone because it leans more toward red, while the base of Blue Rizzler is cooler in undertone because it leans more toward blue. To my eye, the bases of the red, pink, and yellow/orange polishes all have warmer undertones, while the base in Sour Note is pretty close to “neutral” because it’s pretty well-balanced between blue and yellow. The addition of contrasting shimmer can also change the way the base color looks by making it look cooler or warmer, though! Sorry for the novel, but I hope that helps!
@@KelliMarissa Is there a website or place I can look to help me understand all the nail polish finishes better? I missed the class on crushed holo vs linear holo vs flakies vs glitter. (Feeling sorta dumb, but had to ask 🫠)

As soon as someone in the Holo Taco Facebook group called this "The Sailor Moon Collection" I was sold lmao. Thank you so much for yet another fantastic swatch video!
Someone else was saying that the detectives were thinking Candy Crush the game and as sometime who also plays Candy Crush, it is indeed the right palette lol
I have been begging for a crushed holo neon collection for 2 years and this is close enough for me. I can't wait for mine to get here next week I'm so looking forward to wearing them. Thanks for another great video 💜
I ordered this collection a few days ago, with the box... My first time purchasing from Holo Taco. Another first for me this week was finally buying a bottle of the Orly Bonder base coat. I've already used the Orly and it's awesome. I can't wait to get the HT!
I absolutely love Holo Taco. It's the only brand of polish I own. I have nearly every polish Simply has made over the last two years, and quite a few of her OG polishes.
I wasn’t into the first few shades of the Crushed Holo released, they were just a biiiiit too subtle. But after Spyglass I’m thrilled that they’re expanding the line with micro shimmers, it adds such a beautiful glow that makes up for the subtle flare from the crushed holo. I’ve been into Shimmers a lot lately, so I’ll take them in pretty much anything 😅
I prefer the original crushed holo formula (barista) because I don't like the added shimmer. It makes the holo less holo, at least in all the swatches I saw. I ordered the whole collection anyway. Maybe we can become friends despite that. I guess my favorite will be Jam Session, followed by Blue Rizzler. These are the darkest, most saturated colors.
The green Sour Note colour is super close to the colour my bridesmaids wore at my wedding! I went for a non-traditional colour and it looked so good on all of them.
@@KelliMarissa It was! It was a Summer wedding and I live in Queensland, Australia which has a sub-tropical climate (similar to Florida); so the bright colours looked awesome.
i've been obsessed with sunshine crush ever since i laid eyes on it. i feel like it's gonna be the next equivalent of orange drink for me, an underrated gem!! and my second yellow of all time!! 😄
I just got my order today! I am so pleased with this set! Sugar Rush is so lovely and pearly! I feel so elegant with it on my hands! I also really like how subtle the shimmers are! I really look forward to seeing other more glowy shimmer formulas like Spirit Fingers and Alien Infatuation. 😮💨🤤💖
@@KelliMarissa I have a feeling I’m only going to buy Sugar Rush. I tend to be a dark polish wearer. These are a bit bright for me. I was hoping your swatches would push me toward wanting more but it seems they didn’t. 🤷🏻♀️ It’s the brightness. 😜
@@continuallycountingchicken7338 In Cristine’s live, she showed these over one coat black and they look incredible. Similar vibes to the Dark Rainbow collection. You might love these that way!
I love the crushed holo formula and love that this isn’t a true rainbow! Love the golden yellow 💛🧡💛 LOVE the white. So glad I got the whole set. Thank you for swatches as always!
@@KelliMarissa I think it’s just because we get this special feeling white and pink with it! It’s close enough to a rainbow to get those vibes but a traditional rainbow wouldn’t have white or pink and these two are beautiful!
Your nail polishes are amazing! I especially love your Holo Taco Rainbow Collection. I'd love nothing more than to get that collection. I 've seen your tutorial on how you used this collection. Absolutely obsessed. Can't get enough of it!😉😍
I liked this collection so much after getting it i ordered a second one. The only other collection I did that with was the ILNP Overcast collection that I also liked a lot. Its fun wearing it with only one of them at a time or as a skittle and sometimes i even will layer different colors on top of each other.
I’m so hyped for this collection, this is my favorite formula from HT. And the different color shimmers is just another layer of fun! The green is WOW. Can’t wait for my box to get here tomorrow so I can swatch them all. 😆
So glad you liked this collection 💚. I feel like I have to be very careful when expressing my opinion but this is the first collection in a really long time that I’ve been genuinely excited for (retro jellies was probably the last) instead of just FOMO purchasing. The crushed holo formula is my favorite because it’s the only formula I feel like I can’t dupe with other indie brands.
Hey! I know the fan base of some brands can be intimidating but please always know you can share your honest opinions here - I'll always keep an eye on comments to make sure everyone is always friendly even when disagreeing ❤
I love this collection! the colors are so pretty and I love the shimmers added in. I have these on my nails now! I love polishes with some type of shimmer added or iridescent. It makes it look more interesting.
I'm currently wearing this collection as a skittle mani. They are really beautiful. The application is very smooth. Normally, I'm not a white polish fan, but Sugar Rush is stunning. The crushed holo formula is a favorite of mine. I love your swatch videos and your honest reviews.
I kinda agree. I know Simply mentioned before that she didn’t want to be like the beauty community with releasing too many polishes too quickly but I feel we are kinda at that point. (Only buying the collections that I like 90% of the collection)
I really like these. This is the first collection Holo Taco has had in a while that I've really liked. I will end up buying this one. I need to replace some old nail polish and these would be great for that. I love the skittle idea. That sounds like the perfect way to wear these. 9:37
I was considering the purple until you said three coats on longer nails. The formula and colors look beautiful. Thanks for the s & r. I would definitely choose a shimmer if it was all I could wear. And, for the exact reasons you stated. Plus, I wouldn’t get bored as quickly with shimmering nails!❤
As always, thanks for reviewing these. I’m glad to hear that at least some of these are vibrant. In other videos, they’ve appeared as if they’re dull “off” colors and I’m not into that.
THANK YOU ive been having a difficult time deciding what of halo taco to try for the first time lol im obessed w mooncat and love that they claim to donate to furever homes for cats
I think this is my favorite collection they have ever put out. I love a duochrome shimmer, and they also are holo ??? Incredible. Unfortunately, I don’t have money right now, so I’m gonna have to wait on picking this up. But I’m excited it’s not limited edition. 🥰
Love all these colors! If I was going to limit myself to only one finish for the rest of my life it would probably be a foil metallic, I'm wearing a champagne gold right now for the summer and I agree, sparkly finishes are very forgiving.
I do Love their crushed holo formula. I was hoping it’d be straight up crushed holo and I’m not sure how I feel about the shimmer yet. I’ll have to see for myself on Saturday when I get my box! I didn’t love the shimmer in spyglass, i don’t hate it either but I feel like it hid that beautiful depth of the crushed holo.
Crushed holo formula is probably my FAVORITE formula that Holo Taco has, especially with the jelly bases. To date my FAVORITE full collection was the retro anniversary. I bought SO MANY back-ups lol. And normally Sugar Rush would be a little less interesting for me personally (I LOVE neons and chaotic combinations lol), but Sugar Rush straight up looks like solid pure snow in the middle of the day when the sun is shining on it and it starts to glitter. I'm so surprised how much I love this color.
Thank you for your review of these polishes. I have them on the way! I really like Holo Taco polish. Probably will wear a different color on each nail!!
Great swatch review as always! I really wasn't feeling this collection. Just didn't find it overly exciting or different. The green is I think the one I would buy bc it looks the most fun
Hi Kelli! I’m definitely a shimmer girl, always have been! I was waiting to see your review of this collection before ordering. I’m looking at Blue Rizzler and Pop Rock right now, although there are others I like as well.
I’m so excited for this collection ! I was able to get my hands on 3 colors I resonated with ! Now I’m tempted to get the rest after these beautiful swatches 🙊💞
I have the box coming my way!!! My very first holo taco box!!! And oh I’m so happy you approved of it!! Specially the white shimmer and the formula overall, i feel is a very unusual take on the rainbow and i love it!!!! Thank you again Kelli ❤ i would chose creams for the rest of my life or flakies 😊
been waiting for this!! i've seen comments about the shimmers getting lost in the base colour and people preferring the shades without coloured shimmer, but I'm glad to see you love these! i personally love sour note, blue rizzler and electric sweetener, and I'm so glad they now come with the wide brushes too! if I had to pick one finish, I might choose magnetics just because you can get so many looks within one shade!
So, I've had a problem with one of my big toe nails for literally over two decades & I've finally gone to see a doctor about it & get it fixed. Which means for the past year-ish, I've only been wear polish on 9 toe nails. 😂 It's finally getting better & hopefully I can start wearing polish on it again. But, I agree shimmer is so much more forgiving. Currently wearing Kbshimmer's Get Off My Tail topped with their Sea-ing Is Believing on my toes.
I feel you. My index finger nail fell off when i crushed it on my garage door. Ive been waiting since January for it to grow back so i can paint it. Its almost grown all the way back! I agree with Kelli, we gotta have all nails for more colors 😂
i decided to only get 3 of the shades this time around and your review made me realize i need jam session 😍 hoping these will stay in stock for next time i decide to place an order!
I LOVE this collection. My only real tiny issue is (based on your hand swatches next to each other) I wish the purple and pink were a little more different as the purple kind of looks like a pinky purple. But still stunning and I'm getting all of them. That green... love
I can’t wait to have this collection! I’m looking to the sugar rush which actually looks like there’s sugar on the nails. And sour note it looks so pretty! Btw I’m sorry I have been distant from your videos for a while. I took a long break and I have over 2000 videos to catch up on. I can’t wait too see what polished I’ve missed! I love you and I can’t wait to see them as soon as I’m done with my job finding glitches in another gathers TH-cam playlists. I pick shimmers too because of what you said. They do a good job covering up dings and what not. 💜
Ok are the collection I love the purple and pink best for my cool pink undertones. For the question which finish I immediately said shimmer. Just because that finish makes me feel happy. Feel better soon!
I love holo taco but the last few releases haven't been doing it for me. Same colors around the same range and barely anything different than what all the other indie brands are doing. I haven't been able to justify buying anything from them recently, which I hate because I love holo taco :c
And some of the other indie brands doing similar things are at a lower price point or have regular sales. Nail polish is a luxury purchase for me already so I have a hard time paying more for the same thing.
I wish we had gotten the crushed holo formula without the shimmer, to be honest. We don't have it in very many colors, so it's a little frustrating to be locked into a single shimmer pairing for each color with this set.
I'm not a Holo Taco fanatic, though I do like their polishes and own some others- but this collection totally got me, I bought the whole thing (rarely do I buy an entire collection!). I love the finish and the shades, and this might be a white shimmer I can actually wear (I love them so but they make me have lobster hands imo). Thanks for the review, it solidified that I made the right choice buying the whole shebang, lol.
I'm kind of obsessed with Jam Session and the blue one. And really, that pink, too. I love the look of cremes, but I seem to lack the ability to not make them look uneven/streaky (maybe it's the ridginess of my nails?) and I do find shimmers to be much more forgiving. Plus, I like a little razzle dazzle. 😄
Hi Kelly, I scored Sugar Rush and (not from this collection), Blush Money. 'Can't wait to try them, they look gorgeous! Love holo polishes, then creams are my 2nd fave. Have a great week 💗🤍💗🤍
Sugar Rush would have been great for your wedding polish video if it had some out a little earlier! I'm currently trying to dupe it with essie arctic jelly + multiple toppers
Im thinking this collection probably looks much more multifaceted in the light, because even though the colors are beautiful the flakes looked more metallic than Holo in the video to me. Thanks for the review!
I ordered 4 of the 7... mainly bc i need to cut back. Instead of getting none, i compromised and got most 😅😂 but these are very pretty.. i love the crushed holo in these rainbow colors and shimmer to boot! ❤ thanks for your video!!
I would choose chunky glitter polish. Sucks breaking a nail 😞 and I keep mine long so the broken one is short for a while 😆 or I also would choose one with multiple finish like flakie w holo.
The only polish from this collection that I have on my wishlist is Jam Session. The others - I either have a similar polish from Cirque’s Shimmergraphic line or I’m not interested in the shade.
It's funny, I dropped something on my toe last summer which left a bruise. I've had to use polishes that were opaque enough for it to not show which were creams. It finally grew up completely this month. I would have to say I would choose shimmers to wear if I could where only one kind of polish. I tend to reach for them the most.
Haha honestly it's a bit of a struggle because I did gouge out a bit of my nail so I need something that'll hide the ridge AND something opaque enough to cover the bruise 😂 toenails grow so slowly tho, what a frustrating situation lol!
Great video. Still not sure if I will buy these. Have not purchased Holo Taco and I am afraid once I start I will go down a rabbit hole of collecting!❤❤
I feel like I need to see these in person. I have mixed feelings after seeing several reviews. 😂 As for my fav finish, crème wins but I love all finishes. I think the only thing I won’t wear is a textured finish.
Omg sorry if this is tmi but the toenail thing... i dropped a heavy shelf directly on my big toe at work 10 yrs ago and that nail never grew back the same 😪 dr said it damaged the matrix or something so yep.. flakies & shimmer pedis all summer FOR LIFE. 🤷♀️
I had a feeling Sour Note would be your favorite. From all the pictures and videos it’s mine too. My collection will be here Friday and I’m excited! These are my colors (bright and fun) ☺️ I finally grabbed your Galaxy collections from Orly and can’t wait to wear them☺️
I might have to disagree with you on that one, but maybe that's because I just posted a video with a TON of white shimmers and I might be a little shimmered out LOL
I bought Sugar Rush just so I could compare it to ORLY’s Ephemeral topper over a white base. I think it’ll be a cool tone option to the warm toned Ephemeral
Would you be willing to do a cool tone versus warm tone video? 🤔 It confuses me but I have a feeling you’d make it make sense. 😊 Or if you already have a video, let me know. Thanks!
Cool tone = more blue
Warm tone = more magenta
Base on the color wheel 😊
Ooh that's a fun video idea!!
There’s also a channel called Style Me Jenn who helps you figure out your own color tones. The easiest description, though, is if you have a warm tone (golden) you often look better with the cooler side of the color wheel such as blues, , greens, purples and blue-toned reds. I don’t look good in large amounts of chartreuse or gold. I can wear it in a skittle. Some people look better with less contrast or need those warm tones to make their skin pop.
This is the basics of what I was taught, although I know others might disagree because color theory is complex!
Each color has an overtone and an undertone. Warm overtone colors are those associated with fire: red, orange, yellow. Cool overtone colors are those associated with water: green, blue, purple/violet. Within almost every color, there are versions that have warm undertones and versions that have cool undertones (except orange, which is always warm). Generally, adding blue to a color makes the undertone cooler, while adding yellow makes it warmer. Adding black, white, or grey to a color can also make an undertone cooler.
In these polishes, while both Electric Sweetener and Blue Rizzler have cool overtones, they differ in their undertones. The base of Electric Sweetener is warmer in undertone because it leans more toward red, while the base of Blue Rizzler is cooler in undertone because it leans more toward blue. To my eye, the bases of the red, pink, and yellow/orange polishes all have warmer undertones, while the base in Sour Note is pretty close to “neutral” because it’s pretty well-balanced between blue and yellow. The addition of contrasting shimmer can also change the way the base color looks by making it look cooler or warmer, though!

Agreed!
Such beautiful polishes! I am loving that hot pink one!
It's so pretty!
i absolutely LOVE the crushed holo formula. super excited for the added shimmers and waiting for my box to come in this week!!
I’m so excited for this collection ! I was able to get my hands on 3 colors I resonated with ! Now I’m tempted to get the rest after these beautiful swatches 🙊💞
I have the box coming my way!!! My very first holo taco box!!! And oh I’m so happy you approved of it!! Specially the white shimmer and the formula overall, i feel is a very unusual take on the rainbow and i love it!!!! Thank you again Kelli ❤ i would chose creams for the rest of my life or flakies 😊
I got Sour Note & Sugar Rush! Super excited!
Ooh yes gorgeous picks!!
been waiting for this!! i've seen comments about the shimmers getting lost in the base colour and people preferring the shades without coloured shimmer, but I'm glad to see you love these!
i personally love sour note, blue rizzler and electric sweetener, and I'm so glad they now come with the wide brushes too!
if I had to pick one finish, I might choose magnetics just because you can get so many looks within one shade!
So, I've had a problem with one of my big toe nails for literally over two decades & I've finally gone to see a doctor about it & get it fixed. Which means for the past year-ish, I've only been wear polish on 9 toe nails. 😂 It's finally getting better & hopefully I can start wearing polish on it again. But, I agree shimmer is so much more forgiving. Currently wearing Kbshimmer's Get Off My Tail topped with their Sea-ing Is Believing on my toes.
Omg I'm glad you're getting it taken care of! You need all the nails you can paint with so you can wear more colors 😂😂😂
I feel you. My index finger nail fell off when i crushed it on my garage door. Ive been waiting since January for it to grow back so i can paint it. Its almost grown all the way back! I agree with Kelli, we gotta have all nails for more colors 😂
i decided to only get 3 of the shades this time around and your review made me realize i need jam session 😍
hoping these will stay in stock for next time i decide to place an order!
I'm glad these arent limited edition so there's no pressure to buy asap!!
I LOVE this collection. My only real tiny issue is (based on your hand swatches next to each other) I wish the purple and pink were a little more different as the purple kind of looks like a pinky purple. But still stunning and I'm getting all of them. That green... love
The green has my heart for sure!
I'm always waiting for you to angle your nail more so I can see the full shift of the shimmers and holo but I'm always left hanging. lol
Mine just came yesterday!!! I love them all!!!
Yesss they're so pretty! Which will you wear first??
ugh I don’t know! I will probably do a skittle since I’m terrible at choosing 😅
I can’t wait to have this collection! I’m looking to the sugar rush which actually looks like there’s sugar on the nails. And sour note it looks so pretty!
Btw I’m sorry I have been distant from your videos for a while. I took a long break and I have over 2000 videos to catch up on. I can’t wait too see what polished I’ve missed! I love you and I can’t wait to see them as soon as I’m done with my job finding glitches in another gathers TH-cam playlists.
I pick shimmers too because of what you said. They do a good job covering up dings and what not. 💜
Love you girl!
Love ya!! 🥰🥰🥰
I was looking forward to this review, which met my expectations, as always. Thank you❤❤❤
Yay glad you enjoyed 🥰🥰🥰
Ok are the collection I love the purple and pink best for my cool pink undertones. For the question which finish I immediately said shimmer. Just because that finish makes me feel happy. Feel better soon!
I have the purple on order, waiting for it to be shipped.
I think you'll really like it!!
I love holo taco but the last few releases haven't been doing it for me. Same colors around the same range and barely anything different than what all the other indie brands are doing. I haven't been able to justify buying anything from them recently, which I hate because I love holo taco :c
Same🙁 I really got into Mooncat polishes lately, really love their unique polishes!
This is first box I’ve ordered in 3 launches. Very unlike me.
And some of the other indie brands doing similar things are at a lower price point or have regular sales. Nail polish is a luxury purchase for me already so I have a hard time paying more for the same thing.
it all does feel really same-y. On my hands and knees begging them to make a green thats not straight up teal but not yellow toned either
@@washambiswimp714 ikk, I neeed a warm toned brown 😭
I wish we had gotten the crushed holo formula without the shimmer, to be honest. We don't have it in very many colors, so it's a little frustrating to be locked into a single shimmer pairing for each color with this set.
I'm not a Holo Taco fanatic, though I do like their polishes and own some others- but this collection totally got me, I bought the whole thing (rarely do I buy an entire collection!). I love the finish and the shades, and this might be a white shimmer I can actually wear (I love them so but they make me have lobster hands imo). Thanks for the review, it solidified that I made the right choice buying the whole shebang, lol.
I think you'll really enjoy these, they're great summer shades!!
I think I would also pick shimmer. They are every bit as classic as a cream and there are several kinds ( iridescent, pearl, metallic, ect.).
I would choose a holo shimmer flakie magnetic thermal.😊
I'm kind of obsessed with Jam Session and the blue one. And really, that pink, too.
I love the look of cremes, but I seem to lack the ability to not make them look uneven/streaky (maybe it's the ridginess of my nails?) and I do find shimmers to be much more forgiving. Plus, I like a little razzle dazzle. 😄
Hi Kelly, I scored Sugar Rush and (not from this collection), Blush Money. 'Can't wait to try them, they look gorgeous! Love holo polishes, then creams are my 2nd fave. Have a great week 💗🤍💗🤍
Sugar Rush would have been great for your wedding polish video if it had some out a little earlier! I'm currently trying to dupe it with essie arctic jelly + multiple toppers
Ooh yes you gotta make a jelly sandwich haha!!
Im thinking this collection probably looks much more multifaceted in the light, because even though the colors are beautiful the flakes looked more metallic than Holo in the video to me. Thanks for the review!
I would say the holo is on the subtle side, most of the time it looks like silver chips!! But I think it's still very pretty 😅
I ordered 4 of the 7... mainly bc i need to cut back. Instead of getting none, i compromised and got most 😅😂 but these are very pretty.. i love the crushed holo in these rainbow colors and shimmer to boot! ❤ thanks for your video!!
Those are all beautifull!!!! Hi from Canada!
Hey!! Glad you like these too!! 🥰
I would choose chunky glitter polish. Sucks breaking a nail 😞 and I keep mine long so the broken one is short for a while 😆 or I also would choose one with multiple finish like flakie w holo.
Oooh! I want the whole set! ❤
I think Sugar Rush has more metallic glitter than the other 2.
I think so too!
The only polish from this collection that I have on my wishlist is Jam Session. The others - I either have a similar polish from Cirque’s Shimmergraphic line or I’m not interested in the shade.
Understandable!! 😅
That green is gorgeous!
i don’t know how your nails never stain!!! i use the orly bonder base coat too and im rocking a natural candy corn vibe 😂
Haha honestly I think some people are just more prone to staining than others!
I ❤❤❤❤❤❤ the crushed holo formula!!!!
Me too, it might be my fave formula of theirs!
@@KelliMarissa 10000000%!!!
I prefer ILNP Snow Angel
Ooh I love that shade!!
Love Jam & Pop & Sugar Rush❤
It's funny, I dropped something on my toe last summer which left a bruise. I've had to use polishes that were opaque enough for it to not show which were creams. It finally grew up completely this month. I would have to say I would choose shimmers to wear if I could where only one kind of polish. I tend to reach for them the most.
Haha honestly it's a bit of a struggle because I did gouge out a bit of my nail so I need something that'll hide the ridge AND something opaque enough to cover the bruise 😂 toenails grow so slowly tho, what a frustrating situation lol!
Great video. Still not sure if I will buy these. Have not purchased Holo Taco and I am afraid once I start I will go down a rabbit hole of collecting!❤❤
These are very pretty, stunning colours & finish, great review, thanks Kelli ❤xxx
Glad you like them too!!
I feel like I need to see these in person. I have mixed feelings after seeing several reviews. 😂
As for my fav finish, crème wins but I love all finishes. I think the only thing I won’t wear is a textured finish.
Haha I get what you mean! They're definitely different from the usual!
Super job Kelly!
Thanks so much!!
Omg sorry if this is tmi but the toenail thing... i dropped a heavy shelf directly on my big toe at work 10 yrs ago and that nail never grew back the same 😪 dr said it damaged the matrix or something so yep.. flakies & shimmer pedis all summer FOR LIFE. 🤷♀️
so glad to see you review this! 💜
Beautiful polishes ❤❤❤
Totally agree!!
I had a feeling Sour Note would be your favorite. From all the pictures and videos it’s mine too. My collection will be here Friday and I’m excited! These are my colors (bright and fun) ☺️
I finally grabbed your Galaxy collections from Orly and can’t wait to wear them☺️
Ooh yay that makes me so happy to hear 🥰🥰
I love these. Thanks Kelli xo
Yay glad you enjoyed!!
The world needs more white shimmer nail polishes.
I ordered the entire collection just for that white polish and the box 🤦🏻♀️ lol
I might have to disagree with you on that one, but maybe that's because I just posted a video with a TON of white shimmers and I might be a little shimmered out LOL
I bought Sugar Rush just so I could compare it to ORLY’s Ephemeral topper over a white base. I think it’ll be a cool tone option to the warm toned Ephemeral
