LOTS OF HOLO BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!!
First off, Kleancolor Addict here and just when I think they've blown my mind with a great collection, they come out with another. Love this line!!!Order arrived fast, within four days and in perfect condition.Now to address some concerns brought up by other reviewers. First, 99.9% of any glitter or holo glitter polish is actually a clear or color tinted jelly based polish. Applying multiple layers is a waste of time and polish, brush on the first layer, then take a cosmetic sponge, coat one side of the sponge and allow it to absorb the jelly, it will leave the glitter behind. Dab it on your nail, repeat once or twice for maximum opacity. Brush on a final coat if you want, add a quick dry top coat and call it a day. If this is confusing, check out SimplyNailogical on YouTube, she does a tutorial on how to apply glitter polish correctly and she'll clear up the confusion. ALL of my glitter and holo glitter polishes are jelly based and I've yet to find a brand that has 100% opacity on the first coat.Second, a couple reviewers said that these aren't holo because they're not like Color Club, this is wrong, holo comes in two flavors, linear (Color Club) and scattered, like this line. I prefer the scattered over the linear, but that's just my taste in holo. Trust me, this is HOLO and if you're a lover of holo, you'll love this collection.This truly is a beautiful collection, lots and lots of holo and the jelly is very, very pretty. If you're looking to expand your holo collection, getting this set will definitely fit that bill. What are you waiting for? Hit the buy button already!!

Repeat purchase to use as special effect top coats
I actually bought the holo green from a thrift store about a year ago- one arround here sells a lot of new products like they always sell kleancolor nail polish, green was the only holo they had or I would have bought more colors, I liked it so much I bought 2 more. When I found out I could get the set on amazon I did because I wanted more colors. I think the name holo is deceiving because it's not a holo like color club that's a linear holographic polish, this is a super fine glitter. I bought these to apply on top of other polishes (and I also do special effects and use my polishes in ways the average user will probably never use nail polish, like the first thing I did with these is get out cosmetic wedges and do gradient/ombré nails and then I stamped a design on them.) With the exception of pink being a more pigmented color the polishes are more of a tinted glitter formula. It's a really cheap and easy way to change your favorite colors of tried and true nail polishes, and this certain type of nail polish by this company is like a tinted clear polish with glitter, so to get it to show up like in the bottle it has to be painted over a similar color, it's fairly easy. The nice thing about these is they are very similar to a few other products that cost much more! I think they are somewhat similar to "Northern lights" top coat some of these colors work/look very similar and this polish only takes 1 coat to get a nice glittery look- but you will need to use a top coat over it for staying power (I use seche vite because it makes my mani dry super fast) And for the advanced users out there like me there are also a lot like the new OPI tinted top coat but this also has glitter in it!

Good for the price but with a few flaws
These polishes are great in that they are super well priced, super sparkly and very pretty...but, they take forever to dry. It's almost like they never dry at all. Even after 30 minutes they will smudge. I find this ridiculously inconvenient. But I have some tips to make it work.First of all, you need to wait a long time between coats. Brush on one coat and then go do something else for a while. Then do your second coat like a hour later, this will insure that it dries completely. If you paint too many coats it simply won't dry. Like ever.I don't recommend a base coat either because that just seemed to add to the drying time.Second, they really need a top coat to shine well. Otherwise the finish is somewhat dull. Use a fast drying top coat like seche vite or better yet top it off with a coat if gel and cure with a UV light if you have one. This will help it last and protect it from smudges. Otherwise it chips easily.You may wonder if its even worth the trouble with all the drying time and coats etc., (I've gotten away with two coats but three coats is really where it's at with these) but the colors really are beautiful, and I've yet to see another brand that has these pastel colored holos so they are unique in that sense. Also you can't beat this set for the price. Just know what you're getting when you buy. I'm overall happy with mine. They just sparkle so much, it's mesmerizing.

Awesome glittery top-coats.
My set came exactly as pictured but the orange is more of a beige and my pink is a little bit more of a purple. These are great topcoats and they remove fairly easily. In order to get the opaque look pictured, you would need a ton of a coats. I found they are fun over a white polish base for a summary pastel look. Im a nail polish junkie but I don't like to spend a ton on top coats and such. These polishes are really good quality for the price. Not the most amazing "holo" polishes, but really pretty darn nice for this d-i-y-er. The wear time is pretty decent too. Usually glitter polishes chip on my fingers around day 2 and toes around day 5. I was able to get 5 solid chip free days on my fingers and 7 on my toes.
