#2 Swatch with me: Hema ~ Holographics

Time for another Swatch With Me! I am aware that this collection is already for sale for a long time. But these six bottles were my first ever holographic nailpolishes and some are still one of my favorite holos!

These six bottles also were one of the first to be added to my nailpolish stash when I started getting really into nailart..


Six very gorgeous colours, you can see which colours I use the most and which ones I rarely use. The green, copper and blue are my favorites of these six. The light pink is beautiful and my least favorites are the bordeaux and purple. As I said in the part 1 video, the purple is not even close to be a holographic nailpolish. I'm not sure if this is for all the purple bottles or if I just bought a dud.. But the colour itself is very beautiful though.


For part 1 I swatched the first three colours: pink, bordeaux and purple. And at the end of the video I used all three colours and created a simple, quick nailart. Just like I did for my first Swatch With Me with the Rimmel London Velvet Matte collection.

These flowers are very quick to make with a dottingtool or toothpick. The gradient gives the whole look a little more depth, but I think the flowers would still look beautiful on a single colour base.

In part two I swatched the remaining three colours: green, copper and blue.I split up the video in two parts because I thought the video would be too long otherwise and not as interesting to look. 

For the second nail art I wanted to try out a vertical gradient I saw multiple times on Instagram. Where you use multiple colours and gradiate those over all your nails. It's a bit difficult for me to explain, but I think the nailart will make it clear..


Holographic or not, all of the colours are beautiful and very easy to apply. Some are not as opaque and some are a bit streaky, but both can be fixed with a extra coat.

 
What kind of polishes would you like to see swachted next?
