The final polish I had swatched was also from the Maleficent Duo called Mistress Of All Evil. This is a clear glitter with a mix of black, purple and hot pink holo glitter. I used 2 coats of dabbled polish over Now Shall You Deal With ME!
You can see how there is a good mix of the colors in the pink and purple glitters. The black seems a little out of place but it still works.
Especially in the shade, the glitters stick out individually. I was a little surprised at the coverage in 2 coats but you can always use the dab technique where you dab the glitter onto a makeup sponge to absorb the clear base and then dab the sponge onto your nail.
You can still purchase this Duo from Gloss48.

Today I have from the ellagee Maleficent Duo collection Now Shall You Deal With ME!, a light green holographic. I haven't seen the movie yet and I really want to - I'm waiting for Redbox or Netflix personally. Anywho!
I used a base coat of Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu!, 3 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat. Formula was smooth but just not as pigmented as I would have liked.
Again, you can see a little bit of VNL but thankfully this polish didn't stain either.
Bye bye holo when you say bye bye sun. I can see this being great for spring though!

Happy New Year! What a way to start than with ellagee Let's Get Ready to RUMBLE, a blue glitter in a clear base. There are different shades of blue here - navy, indigo and even a charcoal holo. I decided to dab 2 coats over Whoa, Is My Hair Out? and it worked out pretty well with two dabbed coats.
I want to try this over other color combinations now and let the glitters sell themselves.
Here in the shade, you can see a bit better the different colors and sizes of glitter.

From the Hades Duo, today I have Whoa, Is My Hair Out? I am a huge fan of Hercules so this polish is pretty fantastic for me. It's a light blue holographic that needs a bit of help to be opaque but it's worth it.
I used a base coat of Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu!, 3 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat. Formula was smooth but just not as pigmented as I would have liked.
Here in the sun, you can see a bit of my VNL peeking out, but thankfully this polish did not stain my nails. I may wear over white next time.
And just like the purple holo, once you're in the shade, the holo goes to bed and you're left with a shimmer. Still a neat color - and unlike anything I can think of it my collection.

Back in October, ellagee was featured on Gloss48, the niche beauty website that brings you the best from the beauty world. I was given the opportunity to swatch the collections but then I thought I lost my copy of the photos! Found out yesterday that I was wrong, YAY! So without further adieu, I will be reviewing the 5 polishes I had, more in depth!
First is Shake A Poor Sinner's Hand, from the Dr. Facilier Duo. This is a berry violet holographic polish that was opaque in 2 coats. I used a base coat of Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu!, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat. Formula was smooth.
You can see how holographic it is with the sun.
Definitely a fan. I haven't really met a holo I didn't like.
But as with most holos, once you hit the shade, you're just left with a shimmer polish which is still pretty. It reminds me a little bit of China Glaze Grape Pop but with more red and HOLO. ^_^
