(I'm not good at updating these days and I'll tell you why: migraine. I found a recent NOTD post I wrote last week but didn't have the time to post. Hope you don't mind!)
Time to show another glorious holographic polishes from China Glazes best collection ever - Kaleidoscope. This time you can feast your eyes on the wonder that's called Octa Gone Wild, a gorgeous linear purple.

In the bottle, most Kaleidoscope polishes looks like a dull glitter, but fear not: once applied they will show off, even in dull light!
Yep, I'm a huge fan of these. I can't find anything wrong with them. They're quite covering, 2 coats doing the trick if you can survive a little visible nail line (and I can since it's only when the light is hitting it right), and the best part? They show their holo goodness inside, even with very low light. That's one thing I prioritize in a holo polish!
I'm wearing one coat of Nail Tek II, two coats of Octa Gone Wild, and I hadn't put on topcoat on all the pictures... I was afraid it would dull the effect, so I took a few pics before using it, and a few after... and the result was the same.
The pics with ring is with topcoat and the ones without is a mix, I think.
I wore this colour for 3 days without chips, just very minor tipwear. For any lacquerhead, that's a while, right?! LOL
Instead of wasting your time reading my boring opinion, let's skip ahead to what really matter... Picspam!

For once, I decided to go nuts with pictures. Recently, I've begun to think about the appearance of my posts - is it getting to the point where I blabber on about boring details and not showing enough pictures? LMK in the comments, I appreciate your honesty on this matter.. I don't want to bore you to death! :)
I cheated a little... You might not notice it, but the ring is not made with Octa. It's OPI DS Original, a polish which I have yet the pleasure of wearing (saving it for another sunny day). But I think it suited the mani quite nicely anyway ;)

I looove this polish and I adore the ring! I didn't even notice that you didn't use octa in the ring. I almost always read your whole blabber stories haha but I adore the pictures you make, you have the power to make polishes look way better on you than on other people, so go crazy on the pics!
SvarSletoh and i'd love to know where you get your stuff to make rings! I see a lot of other ring sizes and I like this one
SvarSletI'd like to know where you get the stuff to make rings too! I have no clue where to buy any of the stuff :/
SvarSletFantastisk farve <3 Håber du snart får det bedre og ikke skal døje med migræne hele tiden.
SvarSletLove it even more together with the ring!! :D
SvarSletSo pretty! This is one I'm still looking for (thank goodness I have DS Original to wear in the meantime).
SvarSletI like reading your words; a few well chosen pictures with a story to go with them is better for me than just a photo dump.
<3 prettyyyyy!
SvarSletI like seeing lots of pictures!!
SvarSletSo pretty! I wish I get my hands on some from Kaleidoscope. :(
SvarSletI also like seeing lots of picture and also reading text. Sometimes I just watch pictures when I don't have time for the text, but when I'm boring I always res everything. :D
I love this look! Both Octagone Wild and OPI DS Original are two of my favourite shades!
SvarSletAs for your posts, I love them just the way they are. It's always fun to read what you have to say and I also love drooling over your fabulous pictures ^_^
Hello! i just started to follow your blog and I must say that it's really good! Beautiful nails and huge pics!
SvarSletAnd I love holo phase you're going through :)
Wow, amazing feedback you guys! I really appreciate it :)
SvarSletYNI and Abby, take a look at Etsy, they have loads of great suppliers :) I use 16 mm findings and cabochons.
Kathrin, tusind tak <3 Tror desværre det er noget jeg skal leve med, men det skal nok gå :)
Wow very nice, also the ring is nice!
SvarSletI love the China Glaze holographic nail polishes! I wish they were still available for I love this purple one! Why they don't make more polishes like these I don't know. I really like the ring with the black crackle polish on top of Octagone Wild.
SvarSletGlass cabochons? Won't they get scratched or cracked? I tried looking on etsy but they seem to sell only in really big quantities. :/
SvarSletThanks guys! :)
SvarSletAmanda, I wish they were available too - as greedy as I may sound, I would love to have backups of my favourite colours..Why doesn't china glaze understand that we're willing to pay more for these unique holos - I for one would happily pay 8-10$ each, and holo particles can't be that expensive! Oh well... Maybe we will get them again one day :)
Abby, I use the glass cabochons, while they might be prone to scratching, I don't mind (I don't use the same ring every day anyway so it takes a while to wear). I was wearing this particular ring to work one day, and it hit the shelves quite a few times but didn't scratch! :)
I buy the cabochons in 10-50 pieces a time (my mom loves these rings as much as I do LOL), they're cheap enough to buy more at the same time IMO. :)
Hej Jette.. :)
SvarSletJeg er helt vild med dine ringe de er sindsyg fede.. Men kan læse det er nogle ædelstene du køber? maler du dem så bare med lakken henover? og hvor køber du dem ?.. Ikke fordi jeg vil efterligne dine, men må jo nok indrømme jeg er meget fascineret af dem.. så håber du vil gi et tip videre..
Mvh Pernille
