Milani 3D Holographic Hi-Res

Oldie and a goodie. I know everyone has seen these 1000000 times but they are that awesome that they deserve it. Milani 3D Holographic Hi-Res is a super cute light purple holo. Hi-Res has a smooth formula that is opaque in 2-3 coats depending on how thick you apply it. And always gets compliments <3 ;)

Milani 3D Holographic Digital - rediscovering how awesome it is.

I know this is such a common nail polish and has been around for a long time, but really, how beautiful is that? Worth wearing more than just once. If you have it and haven't worn it in awhile, or even at all yet you should give it a go. It looks better on the nail than in the bottle. It really is pretty :) it soaks up the sun. This is 2 coats of Milani 3D Holographic in Digital. These Milani holographics aren't linear holos, but the holo glitter in them is slightly larger than what would normally be in a linear nail polish, which seems to make the colours that it relects more vibrant. They are easily purchased from BeautyJoint.com or CherryCulture.com for around $4.50 Formula is smooth and easy to work with, though the brushes are a bit small for my preference. The wear time isn't too bad either :)

The Milani 3D Holographic Collection is a hit for me. They are so cheap and they look awesome. Easy formula to apply with 2 - 3 smooth coats. They remind me of My Little Pony :) super sparkley and pretty!

OPI Ranbow Connection vs Milani Gems and NYX Girls Carnival

There is a very clear winner out of these three!

NYX Girls Carnival

OPI Rainbow Connection

Milani Gems

On the nail after a day of wear - no top coat

Thumb and index NYX Carnival, middle Milani Gems, Ring and pinky OPI Rainbow Connection all one coat over black

Rainbow Connection was definately the best for me! Application was easiest as the brush was big enough to do only a couple of brushstrokes, and since there was so much glitter it made it easier with the big brush. It dried fastest and didn't chip, i did a full mani with it and it held up well. Carnival was my least fave, the clear base with the glitter doesn't dry quickly and was dentable for a long time, the brush was smaller which is fine for a creme but not this glitter, it was a bit difficult. The glitter was most sparse in carnival and didn't last as well for me when i did a full mani with it, I had to take it off pretty quickly. Gems was 2nd best, it dried well and didn't last as long as long as the OPI but went on easy enough and had a good amount of glitter :)

This is when I tried Carnival over OPI Yo-ga ta get this Blue, I like it, it just took too long to dry. But I guess that is what fast dry top coats are for :)

Poison Ivy Nails

Holo and glitter >.< This is Milani 3D Holographic Hi-Tech and NYX Girls Enchanted Forest. I think it was a bit intense for my camera! This is brighter in person and super sparkley. I love it :) it's magical. Enchanted Forest is a glitter in a tinted green base so it makes Hi-Tech a little greener but doesn't take away the holo effect. And here is Hi-Tech on its own..

And those were taken on a rainy day o.O can't wait til Summer to see them shine even more!
