Linda Johansen ~ Razzle
Dazzle
Deep purple with scattered
holo
This is my second Linda Johansen polish. I was well impressed with the
first one, even though it was grey :D You can see it here
if you are interested!
Anyway, when I saw Razzle Dazzle I just knew I had to have it! It’s purple;
it’s got holographic effect – what is there not to love?! I bought it on the
spot!
The formula is great! It applies very easily, it dries fast and it’s
basically just a great quality polish! It’s a jelly and I applied two coats and
was satisfied with it, but when I look at the pictures I can see that I should
have applied three. Anyway, two will have to do for this time. Here is a
picture of two coats, no topcoat. The picture is taken in the sun:
The holo is gorgeous, I absolutely love it! And it even works in low
light – here’s a picture taken in my lightbox:
Can you see how it looks as if it glows from within? I really love that!
I went for some dots to make it come more alive. I used a bright
turquoise polish from Ma.nish.ma. called “Bolts of Blue” and made four dots on
each nail. I sealed it all up with a new top coat I’ve bought in a blog sale:
H. K. Girl. I’ve heard so many good things about it and have been dying to try
it myself, so I was happy to finally get my hands on it.
Here’s the final mani in the sun:
And in my lightbox:
The polish still glows underneath the dots! :)
I can’t tell you how glad I am to have this polish in my stash. Linda
Johansen is a Norwegian brand, and it deserves much more credit than it
actually gets. Lacquered thumbs up from me!

Gorgeous shade of purple! I think it's really important for a holo to look good in low light too and this one certainly does :-)
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. I have quite a lot of holos that look great in the sunshine and totally boring in the shadow. That's no good, since I spend more time indoors than in the sunshine :)
DeleteI like the polish, but I do like it better with the dots on. Fun color combo.
ReplyDeleteI love the polish, but I am with you: I also like it better with the dots :)
DeleteLovely holo and dots! :)
ReplyDeleteDots are almost always nice :) And thank you :)
DeleteIt's so very pretty - I would love to get my hands on Linda Johansen polishes one day!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure you will one day soon ;)
DeleteNice design.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I like it simple like this :)
DeleteThat sparkly holo in the purple is so pretty! The dots you added is really fun too! :-)
