Nabi Hologram ~ 10 Navy
Blue & 21 Flamingo
Blue linear holo and pink
linear holo
It’s time for some new holos! This time I’m trying out the Nabi
Holograms. I bought a bunch of them on evilBay,
and today I’ll show you two of them. It was my intention to paint my nails pink
and blue alternate and then dots with the opposite colour, but I changed my
mind, and I’m glad I did. Let me show you why!
The formula is good on these. They smell horrible, but they are well
pigmented and they dry pretty fast. It took two coats to make this polish look
the way I wanted it to.
I don’t wear pink that often, but this is the kind of polish that could
make me wear pink more often. It’s pretty both in and out of the sunshine, and
I love that in a holo.
Here’s a pic for you; two coats, no topcoat:
The holo effect is quite good, but not the strongest in the pack of
polishes. This is good though, I like it!
Then I considered what to do with it. I still wanted to use the Navy
Blue polish, but wasn’t quite sure how I wanted to use it. Then my boyfriend
suggested white dots with blue dots on top of them. Sounds good right? I
decided to run with that ball. I first made white dots with Essence “Ahoy!”
from the 50’s Girls Reloaded collection, and then I made blue dots with Nabi
Navy Blue over the larger white dots. And here’s what that ended up looking
like:
‘Tis pretty, don’t you think?
I love that there are rainbows both on the pink and on the blue!
Here are the polishes I used:
I must admit that this mani gives me a really positive vibe. It’s as if
all bad moods disappear when I look at the colours and the dots!
Note : Flamingo is a bleeding polish. It’s not visible in my pictures,
because they’re all taken before I added topcoat. The minute I added topcoat,
the white dots took colour from Flamingo, and turned pale pink. I don’t mind so
much, it actually looks pretty cool, but definitely unintentional, haha! :)
I wonder if you like dotticures as much as I do?

ReplyDeleteGreat holo and fun nailart you made there :)
Just like you're not crazy about glitter, eh? Hahaha! :D
DeleteI like the bright pink, I'm not crazy about baby pink :)
This mani is just so pretty! I just love pink/blue combos, and the way you stacked your dots is so cute! :D

Thank you - I'm so pleased with this myself. The colours seem really chirpy :)
DeleteI love your BF's idea, it looks perfect and fun :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'll pass on that message - he'll be very pleased to hear it :)
DeleteI don't care about nail polish smell most of the time :).
ReplyDeleteThis manicure looks fantastic!!! <3
Thank you so much <3
DeleteI don't mind smell either. I find it weird that they don't all smell approximately the same :)
great mani, it reminds me of oxygen bubbles in pink water - such a colorful ocean! so i must admit that bottles of Nabi holos looks like Layla ones :)
ReplyDeleteThe bottles are indeed very similar to Layla's holos! I did notice that when I wanted to grab a Nabi and I got a Layla instead :D
