NAILS | Holo Taco "Orange Drink" Swatch

I know that an entire blog post to this ONE colour is totally unnecessary, but the Holo Taco Rainbow Collection deserves all the attention! Each and every nail angle is just pure nail porn and with our summer finally hitting Vancouver two weeks ago, I am going to take advantage of every shred of sunlight I get just to watch my nails sparkle! I thought about doing nail art, but orange is sort of a tough colour to work with and I didn't want to use black and have this be a Halloween nail art post (though I cannot WAIT for Halloween manicures!). With regards to Halloween, the other thing I cannot wait for is wearing a fun face mask to work! We have to wear company-provided surgical masks, but on Halloween I have been all cleared to draw some lips and fangs out of cardboard and stick them on our masks to have a little fun! Yes, I know COVID is terrifying and if we get a round two in the Fall, I might not be so perky about the whole thing, but for now, it's a way of staying positive.

I had planned to swatch a few more shades and make my way through the entire rainbow of the collection, but I suffered a nail break on Monday when I was all groggy from waking up and in an effort to find the light switch for the bathroom, bashed my ring finger into it and sheared half the nail right off. I had to file everything down so I have nubbins which would NOT do a holo polish justice!

The shade "Orange Drink" is almost a burnt orange which gives it a bit of sophistication. Just like the shade "Red Licorice", this was practically opaque in one coat, but I always do two out of habit.

I am still over the moon with this collection and I have zero regrets about buying all the shades. Stay tuned for the other five colours!
