Hare Polish A Positive
Hi sweeties!
Let's take a look at an old favourite, Hare Polish A Positive. I'm not sure what happened to Hare Polish, but it seems like they aren't for sale anymore. I know that Nikole, the creator had om health issues, but since I've been out of the polish loop I can't give more info than that.
Anyway, A Postivie is a a magenta pink jelly with hex glitter in different sizes. It's absolutely gorgeous. I think this is my favourite from Hare Polish. I love the depth of it. The jelly base is just transluscent enough to let the glitters of the first coat peek through and really create layers of glitter.
I actually bought my self a back up bottle in a blog sale a while ago.
The formula is good. It's a bit thick but in no way difficult to apply. Three coats give full coverage. The finish becomes a bit texture because of the large amount of glitter but top coat makes it smooth.
What you see in the pictures are three coats of Hare Polish A Positive and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe Time to Chill Collection: Swatches & Review
Hi darlings!
Today I'll share a new collection from Colors by Llarowe called Time to Chill. The collection is excusive to Hypnotic Polish and can only be bought from there. From the beginning I had my mind set on three of them but I ended up buying the whole collection.
I wanted new holographic neons since last summer's failure from Mentality. Or scandal. Whatever you want to call it was horrible.
Anyway, the Time to Chill Collection consists of six neon holos. They're all stunning and perfect for summer. Overall the formula is good. A few of them were very sheer and others perfectly normal. Usually when I do a mani with neon I do a white base but for these swatches I didn't so you can actually see the coverage. Thy all dry to semi-matte finish so you need top coat if you want the finish to be shiny.
The photos are taken in artificial lightning.
Island Escape
Island Escape is a neon lime green scattered holo. The colour is so lovely and bright. Perfect neon green. The only downside is that it's a bit sheer on it's own. With a white base you'd probably need two coats.
Shown is three coats plus top coat.
Hello Starfish
Hello Starfish is a watrmlon neon pink scattered holo. This is so pretty. It's surprisingly my favorite from the collection. I'm no big fan of pink but I love this. It's just so summer-y and vibrant. I think it's the least neon one in the collection.
Two coat plus top coat.
Bikinis & Flip Flops
Bikinis & Flip Flops is a neon purple scattered holo. This one was so hard to photograph. It's a bit lighter in real life. It's such a juicy, intense colour.
Two coats plus top coat.
Zest for Life
Zest for Life is a neon yellow scattered holo. There's a few drops of green in that yellow making it ook evn more neon. I love the coour but it's very sheer. As with Island Escape this one would benefit from a white base.
Shown is three coats plus top coat.
Cocktail Party
Cocktail Party is a neon magenta scattered holo. This is another one that was really hard to photograph. It's a tad lighter and slightly more pink in real life. The colour is gorgeous. It's so vibrant! And the holo makes it even prettier.
Two coats plus top coat.
Sweet Nectar
Sweet Nectar is a neon orange scattered holo. This is such an amazing orange. It's so intense! I love it. This one was also a bit sheer but nowhere near Island Escape and Zest for Life.
Two coats plus top coat.

Glam Polish Cancer
Hi darlings!
Today I'll show you Glam Polish Cancer. This is an exclusive for Hypnotic Polish and part of the Zodiac collection. Each month a new polish, inspired by zodiac signs, will be released
Cancer is a dark magenta base with pink glitter and a scattered holo effect. This is gorgeous. The colour is very dark and makes the pink glitter pop. They look like glowing embers in the base. This is truly beautiful and I can't wait for the rest of this collection.
The pictures are taken in direct sunlight.
The formula is impeccable. Two coras give full coverage. It dries quickly and the finish becomes a little textured, but fairly shiny. Top coat makes the finish shiny and smooth.
What you see in the pictures are two coats of Glam Polish Cancer and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

ILNP Bikini Bottoms
Hi darlings!
Today I'll show you ILNP Bikini Bottoms. As you can probably see these pictures are taken a few months ago.
Bikini Bottoms is a magenta pink holographic with a slight red tone to it.. It's really vibrant! My camera had a hard time picking up the colour so it looks a little bit muted in my picture. I promise you, this is not a muted colour at all! It's the prefect summer pink.
The pictures are taken in direct sunlight.
What you see in the pictures are two coats of ILNP Bikini Bottoms and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe Temptation
Hi guys!
The formula is good. Two coats gave full coverage. You'll probably need three of your nails are a long. I try to keep mine short these days due to the cold weather. My nails have suffered this winter and are a little bit brittle. No major breakage yet, and I'd like to avoid it from happening.
Today I have another polish to show you from the New Year, New CbL Collection. This one is called Temptation.
Temptation is a deep red with pink and purple undertones, almost a magenta. It has a beautiful holographic effect and some golden shimmer. It's absolutely, breathtakingly stunning! Leah Ann truly hot out of the park with this one. It's so deep and the golden shimmer makes it glow. I love the colour! I couldn't stop staring at my nails when I wore this.

Anyway, the finish becomes shiny and the holo isn't affected by TC.

Colors by Llarowe Good Golly Miss Molly
Hello darlings! I know I've been absent for the past few weeks. I had a major essay to do in school, applied for a job which I'll hopefully get and then the Holidays came up. So instead of writing rushed posts I decided not to blog at all until I had the time again. Now that school is finally less hectic I have that extra time to write good posts.
So let's start the new year with Colors by Llarowe Good Golly Miss Molly.
Good Golly Miss Molly is a purple leaning magenta with a strong holographic effect. Isn't it beautiful? It's one of my favourite CbL's. It similar to Dirty Diana but Good Golly Miss Nolly is a tad darker, a tad more magenta and a lot more vampy.
I try to keep my nails fairly short right now since the dry, cold, Swedish winter makes them break otherwise. I really, really like this on my nails.
The formula is good. It's on the thicker side but it's easy to apply. I used two coats for this mani but I could've gotten away with one. It's super pigmented. It dries quickly and shine. The holo effect isn't dulled by top coat.
What you see in the pictures are two coats of Colors by Llarowe Goid Golly Miss Molly and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe Dirty Diana
Hi darlings!
Today I have Colors by Llarowe Dirty Diana to show you. I've showed it once before on the blog but it's one of my favourite polishes.
Dirty Diana is a magnta holo. The holo is so strong and gorgeous. I love the colour as well. This is the old bottle but it's avilable in the new one. I think Dirty Diana is part of the core collection but it was first released with the Tribute to Michael Jackson collection. I need to get a back up of this!
The pitcures are taken in direct sunlight.
The formula is amazing. It's on the thicker side, but applies like butter. Two thin coats gave full coverage. It dries quickly and the finish becomes super shiny. The holo effect isn't affected by top coat.
What you see in the pictures are two thin coats of Colors by Llarowe Dirty Diana and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.
