So I went into my drawer to find a great Tonic to wear- and discovered I own 2 Alexandria’s Genesis, lol. But that’s okay, it’s gorgeous!
It’s a gorgeous purple with blue shimmer in it, boy is there a lot of shimmer!
I did 2 coats, it has a thicker formula, but not hard to work with. It was jam-packed with shimmer!
Can you see the shimmer? It’s so blue! I had my wet nails in front of a fan for a minute, and all the shimmer kind of looked like waves on my nails! As soon as I moved my hand away from the fan it smoothed right out, but it was super cool.
Then an amazing nail board friend from Makeupalley (come join us! We’re awesome!) sent me Revlon’s Holographic Pearls! I had looked for this and couldn’t find it, and she so generously sent me her backup bottle! So I had to try it right away. The picture on the left is with a pretty thick coat of Holographic Pearls, the one on the right is my rarely-seen Cindy hand, with a thinner coat of Holographic Pearls on it. IRL I prefer the thinner coat, but the thicker coat really shines in the picture!
Also, this is why I rarely do toppers- I have a hard time getting even coverage, so it looks weird to me- and I feel like it doesn’t line up right at the cuticle. Soooo next time I won’t do undies, I’ll just do a thick coat of Holographic Pearls.
Tonic is a great brand, I have bought polish from them every since they were sold on Etsy! I highly recommend them.
Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on you nails!
