Coral Colours: Emerald Superstar

I had to squeeze in at least one glitter mani post for the month and this one's a hairy holo glitter!

Australian budget beauty brand Coral Colours have released (without any fanfare) a set of holo bar glitter polishes.  I spotted them in my local chemist so bought one for a bit of crazy layering.  Emerald Superstar is a blue tint polish crammed full of holographic bar glitter which look like tiny holographic needles in the bottle.  I applied a single coat over FOA's After Dinner Mint and it was transformed into a holographically hairy Tiffany blue mani. 

All pictures were photographed in indirect daylight to best capture the holo effect:




I'll finish with a gratuitous bottle shot:

What do you think of this hairy combo?

Until next time.

    1. Yes it IS a beachy colour! I was thinking that too - it would look great with a tan because it's such a summery colour combo :)

    1. Thanks Larie! The only other bar glitter I know of was in the OPI Nicki Minaj collection. I couldn't believe it when I saw a cheapy brand selling it - I figured it wasn't going to cost me much to try it out so why not?

  10. Lol... I was trying to pinpoint why I wasn't on board with it and then you said "holographically hairy." Sorry, I can't get behind hairy! The blue is really nice tho!
