Primark Exclusive: Holler and Glow Nail Polish: Review and Swatches

Wednesday, August 23, 2017

Hello everybody and welcome to a new blogpost. This is going to be a short post, but it's one I'm really excited about! I went to Ghent yesterday and went inside Primark. I was a long time since my last Primark visit do I was excited to look around and search some fun new stuff. I saw on Youtube that Primarks in England have a new brand called 'Holler and Glow', that has GREAT nail polishes and sheet masks. And guess what? They have it in Belgium too! Read along to see what I think about these polishes and what I think about them.
If you're a big fan of holographic make-up and nail polishes: I have amazing new for you because the Holler and Glow nail polishes are all holooooo-licious. Yes. You read it right. I don't own many holographic nail polishes. I got a blue one when I was 14 but it dried out and the brand didn't make it anymore. Sooooo... I got 4. But they are all so different. 
  • Papped: White pearl with pink holographic shimmer
  • Can You Not: Light Kaki with light green holographic shimmer
  • Rogue Mermaid: Blue base with pink and orange holo shimmer
  • Self Made: Bronze with brozen shimmer
Swatches: Self Made, Papped, Can You Not, Rogue Mermaid

Above you can see swatches of the polishes catching the light. How beautiful are they? My favorite is Papped, I like that pink sheen. All these swatches are 3 layers, but 2 would also be okay. Except Self Made, which was perfect and opaque in 1 coat. 1 COAT. Simply amazing. I didn't do a base and top coat, because I wanted to see how the polishes worked on their own. 

They dry very quick, it's kind of the same drying time as Essie polishes.

About an hour later, I noticed my nails looking kinda... weird. On all four painted nails, little tiny bubbles starting forming. I think their are tiny air bubbles. I want to note that I did not shake up the bottles before painting so I'm curious to see how this happened.
Unfortunately, I have to take the polish off again because I can't wear nail polish at work. I do want to do a pedicure with one of these, though! I wonder it a base and top coat will help.


These polishes are only €2,50 at Primark. They have cute colours and also a few holographic topcoats. They also sell a base coat, top coat and nail care products by Holler and Glow. I would recommend them, although I'm not quite sure where the tiny air bubbles come from. Keep it in mind when you want to buy them!

Time for Spring: Clothing Haul (Picture Heavy)

Saturday, March 22, 2014

Happy Saturday, sweethearts! I hope you guys are having a great day! It's a bit rainy here in Belgium, so I decided to stay inside and do some blogging! Today, I'm showing you guys the last part of my Primark Haul: the actual clothing! In this haul post, I'll show you how most of the clothing looks on.


Time for Spring: Shoes and Jewelry Haul! (Picture Heavy)

Saturday, March 15, 2014

Hello sweeties! Today, I'm showing you guys the jewelry and I got at Primark. I got some bracelets, statement necklaces, shoes and other cute stuff. And the best part of it was: it was all very affordable! Let's go!

The first thing I got was a pack with six pairs of earrings. I liked how these looked and it's always handy to have some small earrings in your collection.

Time for Sping: Bikini Haul: Hunkemoller and Primark (Picture Heavy)

Tuesday, March 11, 2014

Hello everybody! I'm here today with a new series called 'Spring is Coming'. I want to share some fun spring stuff with you guys because spring always gets me really excited and happy. It gives me 'In-spring-ation'. Haha. Sorry. 
We are having wonderful weather here in Belgium (we're breaking records here: it's the warmest beginning of March EVER).

So I went spring shopping and I bought.... 5 bikini's. Yes, you have read that correctly. 5. I can explain. I haven't bought a new bikini in more than 2 years, so I really needed some new ones! I'm also very picky about them and how they look on my body. Vente Exclusive, an outlet site, was having a Hunkemöller beachwear sale, with bikini's from last year's collection at -50%, so I got a few things there and yesterday, I went to Primark and I also bought two bikini's there. There will be a Primark haul very soon on this blog so stay tuned for that!



The first one I got from Hunkemöller was this black bikini with pearl details on the top and on the bottom. I really liked how it looked, you can't go wrong with a black bikini. It has an underwire built in, something I really like and look for in bikini's because to be honest, I kinda need it. 

Primark Fall Haul 2013

Sunday, November 3, 2013

Hello lovely sweethearts! I recently went to Primark in Liège with my mom and sister in law. I did not expect to find a lot but I was so surprised... I don't think I ever bought so much beautiful things at Primark. The Primark in Liège is the only one in Belgium right now and it's not that close, so I go once or twice a year. But there will open up a store in Ghent and maybe Brussels soon (I hope)! I told a few friends about my trip and they suggested to do a haul. So here it is ;) 

Warning: prepare for a LONG blogpost. Get something to drink, make some popcorn, relax and have fun reading ;)
