Tuesday, April 21, 2015
Hey friends!
I'm back today with Part 2 of my review of the January Holo Grail Box by Dazzled!
Click here for Part 1 that featured Aly's Dream Polish and NailNation 3000.
Today I will be sharing with you the contributions from Lilypad Lacquer and Too Fancy Lacquer.
For more information about the subscription box by Dazzled please see Part 1!
Photo time!
Magical Moments
**Pink/purple toned holographic glitter polish**
***Photos shown with three thin coats. Three coats for full opacity but it wasn't thick by any means. The formula is thin enough to build to opacity. No issues with formula or application. Shown with HK Girl Top Coat***


Direct sun photo



Love and Peace
**Bright yellow holographic polish with a green lean**
***Shown with two coats and HK Girl Top Coat. No issues with formula or application. You will see in the indoor (office) lighting where the green REALLY comes through. It's yellow for the most part but can have a green shift in it depending on the lighting.***

Holo Grail Box January 2015 - Make a Wish - Part 1
Monday, April 20, 2015
Hey hey hey!
I'm back from my week long hiatus.
Okay so it was a full week since I did post on Monday to tell you I would be MIA for the week.
I've been so busy with my day to day life that it can get tricky getting swatches done!
This post is part 1 of 2 posts that will feature the polishes from the January 2015 Holo Grail Box from Dazzled. This box got a bit lost in the mail so it just found it's way to be a week or so ago!
But I didn't want to not share the polishes just because it's no where near January anymore.
Since these can all still be found second hand. I've seen them all being destashed! So if you see something you like...keep an eye out for them!
There isn't currently a pre-order happening for the Holo Grail Box but when there is it can be found here.
So today I have the contributions from Aly's Dream Polish and NailNation 3000 to show you!
Health Potion
**Stunning red holo polish - a pink/red - keeping it from leaning orange aka a stunning bright red**
***Two beautiful coats are shown in the photos topped with HK Girl Top Coat - no issues with formula or application - no staining***


Indoor office light photo -
sadly no sun photo for this one



My Wish 4 You
**Light pink holographic polish with a gold shift**
***This polish and the Aly's are head to head for being my favorite of the box. The gold shift in this is so so beautiful. It really gives the pink something extra special. It's subtle enough for the office but special enough for outside the office. No issues with application or formula. Shown in the photos with two coats topped with HK Girl Top Coat***


Shown on the left indoors in office light and on the right is an indirect sun photo



Tomorrow I will be sharing the other two polishes from the box. See photo below for a little sneak peek!

NailNation 3000 Review and Swatches - Grinch in a Blender - Holo Grail Box
Monday, December 29, 2014
Hey guys!
I hope you all had a nice holiday, if you celebrated Christmas that is, if you didn't then I hope you had a nice weekend!
If you missed my short little post with my Christmas card then feel free to click here to see it!
Today I have a polish that was part of the December Holo Grail Box from Dazzled!
Dazzled is probably one of the best subscription boxes around when it comes to brands that are a part of it. The theme for December was The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.
With that being said...here is Grinch in a Blender from NailNation 3000 -
Grinch in a Blender






Coats -
Two easy coats. No issues with staining, application, or formula.
Color Intensity -
This green is EVERYTHING. If you can find this polish in a resale then snag it! It's bright without being neon or obnoxious like bright green can be. Even though I like obnoxiously bright green too. :)
Top Coat - NailNation 3000 High Gloss Top Coat
Base Coat -
Where to find NailNation 3000 -
Where to find Dazzled -
The pre-order for the January Dazzled box has already happened BUT make sure to follow the Dazzled FB page and IG to find out when the next launch happens for February!

Aly's Dream Polish Review and Swatches - Yuna - July Holo Grail Box
Monday, August 11, 2014
So you guys.
You've heard of the Holo Grail box from Dazzled right?
If not...here's a little cliff notes of it.
It's a monthly subscription box run by Dazzled with four LE polishes made JUST for the Holo Grail box from four different indie brands. Each box has a different theme and the polishes are a mystery! You will see "inspiration photos" from each polish brand that's participating in the box but you won't see the inevitably stunning polish until it gets to your doorstep!
I wasn't able to buy the July Holo Grail box which is sad because any HG box that features an Aly's Dream Polish I want it! Luckily I was able to track down one from someone willing to sell it to me!
The July box was a video game themed box and Aly was inspired by the Final Fantasy character Yuna.
Are you ready for this?
**********************************
Yuna
(bright purple holo polish with a red shift)
So lots of outdoor shots in different lighting throughout the day because it's too damn pretty not to take lots of sun photos! The first photo below is a photo taken indoors. The four photos following the indoor is the polish during different times of day with direct/indirect sun.



Coats -
Three thin coats. Two regular coats would work just as well.
Color Intensity -
OMG. OMG. That red shift is AMAZING. The purple base itself is so crisp, bright, and fun then you throw in the red shift and the holo? Get outta here...Aly is a polish making magician. No words can adequately describe this beauty. If you get a chance to snag this in a resale...snag it!!
Top Coat - HK Girl
Base Coat - Liquid Lacquer base coat
The September pre-order for the Holo Grail Box is happening RIGHT NOW. Aly's Dream Polish will be a part of it again!!! Along with three other indie brands. Check out the Dazzled shop to pre-order it. The price is in Hong Kong Dollars (HKD) so don't freak out when you see it! It's about 60 US dollars.
See you tomorrow!
