The Chill Zone Nail System & Snowflake Nails

Chill Zone is a new to me brand. Founded in 2010 by the Homma brothers, one a nail tech, the other a chemical engineer, they promise quick drying, long lashing and high shine polishes with a 3 free formula. I tried their nail system of dehydrator, base coat, tip capper and top coat as well […]

Revlon Hologasm (Holographic) Swatches and Review

The final of the holographic polishes from Revlon’s HoloChrome collection is Hologasm. A grey-silver scattered holographic polish you can buy at the drug store.
