Rainbow 09

Light blue holographic. Like the others, the holo here is scattered. While the effect is subtle in the shade, the rainbow is easily seen under direct sunlight.

I apologize for how dark my hand looks in the sunlight shots; it was the best I could do to show the rainbow. The base was a little sheer so three coats were needed. But that doesn’t stop it from being one of my favorites! Thanks for looking!

Rainbow 03

Golden beige holographic. Previously, I mentioned that there were two versions of 03 and 05 floating around. This is one of them, which can be labeled as either number.

I found this to have a weaker holographic effect as compared to the previous two shades. But I would still recommend it to any holo lover as it's cheap and easy to apply.

Thanks for looking!

Rainbow 05

Light mauve holographic. Here’s another of the Rainbow holographics! I really love these as they’re beautiful and really easy to apply! No patchiness like the Nfu Oh holos (I can’t wait to try out my new babies 66 and 51!).

I’ve noticed that there are two colors of 05 and 03 floating around. I’ve seen this color labeled as both numbers. The other color has a golden beige base, also labeled as both numbers. A batch or two was probably mislabeled.

I know I haven’t been updating much this month. I change my nail polish every week and I also try to swatch at least once. However, it’s monsoon season in South-East Asia now. It's sunny one moment and rainy the next, so please bear with me. Also, I'd rather show a fresh manicure than one with tip wear so I usually don't take photos after the second or third day (there are exceptions though!).

Thanks for dropping by!

Rainbow 02

Medium pink holographic. Since I was only bitten by the holographic bug this year, I missed out many great polishes that are now discontinued and hard-to-find (HTF). But this is not one of those at all. It’s from Daiso and is $2 for 5ml. It might not seem like a lot but it’s still cheaper per ml compared to China Glaze, Color Club or OPI.

The formula gave me no problems and it dries rather shiny. I added Seche Vite on my other fingers and I’m happy to report that it didn’t dull the holo.

I’m not usually into pink but I’d take a pink holographic over a cream any day. I will definitely be buying backups of this because the bottle is so small I’ll probably finish it in five manicures. Plus, it’s affordable.

Thanks for looking!
