The Holo Hookup August 2016 Box: Swatches and Review

Provided for Review

Hi everyone! For today I have the Holo Hookup Box for August. Along with polishes from Cupcake Polish, Different Dimension, and Glisten & Glow, the guest maker for this month is Nvr Enuff Polish. Theme is A Day in a Garden, with the polish drawing inspiration from the lush gardens, here is the inspiration photo I was provided:

The August 2016 Holo Hookup Box will be available during a week long pre-order window from July 21st at 9 pm EST until July 28th at 9 pm EST only in the Holo Hookup shop. 

The box is $40 plus shipping which will be available domestically and internationally.

Cupcake Polish Blue Orchid

Two coats

Cyan blue linear holographic with strong blue and pink shimmer
I used to be a holo purist type of holo lover but the more I see these shimmer holos (like this one), the most I embrace them. This pretty blue is a bit thinner in formula than I expected but it was still opaque in two coats.

Different Dimension Montego Red

Two coats

Darkened scarlet red linear holographic with added shimmer and purple micro-glitter

Absolutely gorgeous! The color is so very bright and the added purple glitter pop in that base. Formula was wonderful, two coats for coverage.

 Glisten & Glow Fern Gully 

Two coats

Forest Green linear holographic with blue and gold shimmer 

This is a perfect garden green color and I like the added blue and gold shimmer. It was a somewhat watery formula so I dabbed off some of the polish from my brush before I applied. With that in mind I though I would need three coats but nope, two was all I needed.

Nvr Enuff Odessa Black

Two coats

Blackened reddish purple linear holographic with red shimmer and midnight flakes

I was excited to see that Nvr Enuff Polish would be the guest brand this month, as I have been following their brand for some time now. Those ladies make some serioulsy awesome holos but I think I prefer their darker shades more and this one is outstanding. It's dark and vampy and red toned, my favorite kind of dark purple basically. If you aren't used to the larger paddle brush that Nvr Enuff uses, I recommend light thin coats when you apply, as it's on the thick side.

Nvr Enuff Polish Amethyst, Emerald, Ruby, Cupids Crossbow & Extraterrestrial

Purchased by Me

Hey all! I have another post for you today, this time it's of a brand that is new to my blog. I have been stalking (and purchasing) Nvr Enuff Polish on Instagram for a few months now and wanted to share my experience with them with you.

Lynnae and Alix are the two ladies who make up Nvr Enuff Polish. Their brand is predominantly holographic polishes though they do carry many glitters, shimmers, and occasionally a creme or jelly. They restock quite frequently, so if something is out of stock, and not a limited edition polish, then there is a good chance it will be restocked again and soon. As for shipping, they do have quick turnaround time, even when they are doing pre-orders. So all around great experiences with my orders.

None of the polishes shown here today are available at the moment BUT there are a great many awesome polishes available currently in Nvr Enuff Polish's shop. 

Nvr Enuff Polish Amethyst 

Three coats
Amethyst purple jelly polish

Part of the Jewel Tints Collection

Very shiny, which is what would expect from a jelly polish. It's has a nice amount of coverage with three coats, no hint of visible nail line. 

Nvr Enuff Polish Emerald

Three coats

Emerald green jelly polish

Part of the Jewel Tints Collection

So slick and shiny. This is thinner in formula than the other two Jewel Tints, as I had a bit of patchiness and it's just opaque enough after three coats. 

Nvr Enuff Polish Ruby

Three coats

Ruby red jelly polish

Part of the Jewel Tints Collection

I'll say it one more time, SO SHINY. This is with topcoat of coarse but you know, I wanted to mention that feature. It's my favorite of the three Jewel Tints, the color is just so deep and red. 

Nvr Enuff Polish Cupid's Crossbow
Two coats
Dark plum purple linear holographic
A limited edition polish released as a Valentine's polish.
This type of purple holo is my favorite kind. It's a jelly polish but super opaque, needing just two coats. And it has that flash of blue in the holo flame. Perfect.

Nvr Enuff Polish Extraterrestrial

Two coats

Indigo blue linear holographic

Part of the Unidentified Flying Holos Collection 

THIS COLOR. Wow. So deep and very blue. As with Cupid's Crossbow, great formula and opaque in two coats.
