Holographic polishes are very popular with the nail polish fans these days. Probably more popular than when a lot of the first one first came out. China Glaze is a very obliging company who really listens to their fans. They knew that the consumers wanted new holographic nail colors and they set out to make that happen with the new Tronica collection. The futuristic theme is on point and fun and the colors mimic their previous OMG collection with a tweak on the holo effect, it is a little more scattered and less linear than the OMGs but less scattered than the Kaleidoscope collection they put out years ago. It's kind of as if the OMG and Kaleidoscope collections had a baby and she is Tronica.
I am not the biggest fan of the new finish, however a holo is a holo is a holo right? So I had to get me some'a that. I picked out Hologram, Mega Bite, and Techno Teal the silver, gold and teal colors.
I used three coats for each. They were a little sheer but the drag was minimal which was nice for holo polishes. I think they look nice on me but honestly I will always choose a linear or a large particle scattered holo over small ones like these. *shrug* Guess I'm just picky (; Did you pick up any lacquers from this collection?

Looking good! Thanks for the great pics :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't yet, but I'd like to later on, when I have more money.
ReplyDeleteI'm also going to get the silver and the teal...the colors are lovely.
I won't be getting any from this line because I just don't think there's any point to a "subtle" holo effect. It's just not big enough for me.
ReplyDeleteI have the worse Sally's ever - they STILL don't have any *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI have "Techno Teal" and "Virtual Violet". Virtual violet definately has a more linear holo affect then Techno Teal but it's not as strong as the old China Glaze holos. They're all still pretty colors though!
ReplyDeleteWaow I love them, Techno Teal especially... And I cant find it anywhere! Have both EvilAngel and PolishInsomniac looking for it :< dont get why it has to be so hard to get one single polish /cry
ReplyDeleteWell enough whine :P Gorgeous pictures <3
Those look like they would look awesome in the sunlight!
ReplyDeleteI just bough Techno Teal!
ReplyDeleteI'm not into these so much. I have half of the OMG collection and I think I'm just going to stick with those.
ReplyDeleteI would pick some if I was in the USA ;P
ReplyDeleteBut not all, mostly the purple ones and one of the pinks. Sice I have TMI, TTYL and QT.
Holos have such a magnetic quality about them. Be them bad or good we just have to have them
the teal is pretty, I'm still torn on these- sometimes I like them and sometimes I want more holo
ReplyDeleteThe only one I picked up was Virtual violet. I'm in love with purples. I didn't feel I needed the rest. They look nice though.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletewhere can i buy that collection?
@espacebeaute as far as i know this collection is only being sold at sally beauty supply stores.
ReplyDeleteI didn't pick up any because they aren't available in Holland, but I don't regret it really.. the holo is just a bit disappointing!
ReplyDeleteiw ant the blue!! i love the bluee!
ReplyDeletebtw i tag you about some award :)
Yeah, I decided to wait until I sawe some sweatches and I do think I will not be smithen by this collection. I'll take OMG anyday of the week!! Why tweak the holo in a BAD way?? OMG was soooo much better!! I just don't get it!
ReplyDeleteI grabbed the entire collection ( I missed out on OMG and Kaleidoscope) I love how strong the colors are, its a nice alternative, but we all know nothing tops OMG and Kaleidoscope..LOL, great pics!!! :)
ReplyDeleteReally love the look of Techno Teal. Love a good holo. I haven't seen much of these. Would love to get these.
ReplyDeleteThese are pretty, but not holo enough for me. I saw a display in Sally's and passed them up.
ReplyDeleteI hope I have the same discipline to not get these. I am content with my OMGs for now, but I seem to be getting more greedy with holos lately.
