China Glaze Hologlam Holographic Collection…

The long awaited (at least by me) China Glaze Hologlam Holographic Collection..
 all are 2 coats with no topcoat
 Get Outta My Space is a light lilac leaning pink.
 Astro-Hot is soft pink.
 Infra Red is hot pink (why can’t we just get an actual red holo!!!!).
 Not in This Galaxy is coral leaning slightly pink/salmon.
 OMG a UFO is green with a yellow undertone.
Don’t be a Luna-Tic is a pale blue leaning slightly green, almost seafom-y.
Sci-Fly By is pale blue.
Take a Trek is blue, slightly muted though.
Galatic Gray is a muted soft black leaning slightly brown.
Cosmic Dust is a greyed silver.
Strap on Your Moonboots is dark blue (think denim).
When Stars Collide is a dusty mauve/purple/pink
How do the rainbows look under topcoat?
 When Stars Collide (left to right) no topcoat, Seche Vite, Orly Polished, Orly Top to Bottom, WnW Wild Shine Clear.
No topcoat and Orly Polished looked very much the same with Seche Vite coming in 2nd as far as strength of holo flame, the other two seemed to have lost some of their strength though.
How do these compared to other holos?
 
 Layla Flash Black, China Glaze Galactic Galaxy, Color Club Beyond
 Layla Flash Black, China Glaze Galactic Galaxy(middle and ring), Color Club Beyond
Layla and Color Club have the best flame/rainbows, China Glaze is very smooth with a mild flame.
How do these compare to the OMG collection?
 
 OMG a UFO (left) and FYI(right)
 OMG a UFO (index and ring) and FYI (middle and pinky).
These seem very similar. I know many people were saying they weren’t as holo as the OMG collection but I think they look pretty close.
Overall: The formula on these was good, they’re somewhere in between Layla Hologram(patchy) and Color Club Halo Hues(smooth). Some of the darker colors applied kinda patchy but the lighter colors went on very smooth. Overall I like them. I debated on getting the whole collection but I’m glad I did because the colors are really pretty. However, if you can’t get the whole collection these are my stand outs:  Infra Red, Galatic Gray, Strap on Your Moonboots and When Stars Collide.
Price: I purchased these at Sally’s Beauty and the retail about $10.50 (but if you have a Sally’s card they will be cheaper).

    […] Creation is very similar to the China Glaze Holographic line that they did last year. The holo is subtle but definitely […]
