Nubar ~ Reclaim

Nubar ~ Reclaim
Green linear holographic

Reclaim is a polish that I’ve had on my wish list for a while. It’s such a pretty holo, so I was happy to finally enrol it into my stash, when Kristen from The Manicured Monkey sent it to me in a swap. And the sun was out so it was the perfect time to try it on, really!

I applied two very easy coats and I had full coverage. I actually think I could have done with one if I had applied slightly thicker coats. But two is good, I’m satisfied with that.

I won’t do much talking today. I’ll just let the pictures tell the story…




Look at that holo! Isn't it just gorgeous?!


I'm totally in love with this polish!


The green is a little bit boring when it’s not in the sun, so I decided to add a bit of design to it. Seen in the rear view mirror I shouldn’t have, but never mind that now.

Here’s stripes and dots with Color Club “Wild at Heart”.


Holos are just fantastic. I love them! What's your favourite holo, if you have one?


Opacity: 9/10
Colour, prettiness: 10/10
Durability: 9/10
Value for money: 10/10
Overall: 9.5/10
Buy again: Yes

    1. I would have made a comparison if I had the green Layla, but I'm not that fortunate :)

  8. I love it! I only have one holo in the silver colour so I had to order another yesterday. :oP I find its very blah looking if not in the light. Hopefully a coloured one will make my fingies a little happier :o)

    1. I hope so. I find a lot of holos a little boring when they're out of the sunlight, so I try and make some of them pop with darker underwear :)
