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!

Hallo lovely ladies, today I want to talk about the Bourjous Rouge Edition Velvet liquid lipsticks. These are probably one of my favorite lip products out there. I own three of the current collection and I like them all very much. 


Revlon Colorstay Eyeshadow Quad in 'Nude Elements' Swatches

Monday, December 17, 2012

Hey everyone, today I'm showing you one of my favorite eyeshadow quads: the Revlon Colorstay 12 hour eyeshadow quad in 'Nude Elements'. I like this quad because the colours in it are a little different than the other nude quads that are out there on the market.


You get 4 nude colours in this quad. A white with a satin finish, a beautiful champagne-peach colour, a purple-brown and a gunmetal grey. I really like this quad because it's great for everyday use.



The eyeshadows are all really smooth and they apply gorgeous on the eyelids. My favorite colour is the peach-champagne one because it's great for when you are in a hurry in the morning but you would like to have something on your eyes.

You can find this Revlon quad at INNO and some Planet Parfum stores for €11,95.

Do you like Revlon products? What's your favorite?
xx, 
Astrid
