Today I have for you yet another polish that I've had sitting around for over a year but never swatched. This one did make a brief appearance around Christmas, when I made my nail polish Christmas ornaments, and I promised then that I would swatch it eventually. I guess today is eventually! :)
Jeweled Egg Hunt by Ellagee is a truly stunning holographic glitter. It's in a clear base, but the glitters are so dense that just two coats over bare nails yields full opacity!
I love the pink and gold color combination, and I love even more the teeny tiny holographic glitters! Here's yet another polish that makes me feel like I'll need to wear gloves while driving so I don't sit through a green light staring at my nails.
The glitters apply beautifully - almost as smoothly as a creme polish! I didn't really experience any spreading or wind up with any bare spots on my nails. A glitter this dense is usually gloopy and difficult to work with, but not this one! And that's really saying something considering that my bottle is over a year old.
The glitter density of Jeweled Egg Hunt is similar to Black Dahlia Lacquer's Woke Up On 6th Street, which I reviewed on the blog last summer.
For once, I actually got a sunny day while swatching a holo polish! I was shocked. Last month was way too cloudy and gloomy.
SHAZAM!!! I think taking out-of-focus pictures of holo glitters is one of my favorite parts of blogging. It's so pretty!!!
I took the above photo on my phone, but I'm wishing I'd gotten out my camera and tripod to get this in-focus sunlight shot. Still, even with less pixels per inch, you can see how beautiful this polish is!
If you like the looks of this polish, I highly recommend you check out Ellagee's entire Bejewled line! She makes some fabulous-looking holographic glitters (although this is the only one of the line that I own or have used).
What do you think of this polish? What's your favorite holographic glitter polish? Let me know in the comments!
