Hi guys! Today I have the second half of my Shinespark Polish swatches and review. I already showed you the amazing neon jellies from the 90s Kids Collection on Wednesday, you can see it
here. Today I'm going to show you a really fun glitter topper, 2 holo polishes, and one holo topcoat. I have several shots for the holos so you can see what they look like in artificial lights vs sunlight, plus macros of each. Let's get started!
80's Fun Glitter Topper
80's Fun is a clear base glitter bomb.It's got small pink squares, medium sized yellow and purple circles, two sizes of blue stars, and small blue microglitter. It is packed with glitter. The formula is really easy to use, not too thick but not to thin, all the glitters are evenly suspended in the bottle and you get a good combination of them with every brushstroke. All the glitters lay flat against the nail and it's easily smoothed out with just one coat of topcoat. It dries shiny on it's own but you will be able to feel the texture from all the glitters. That's why I like to topcoat my glitter toppers, otherwise I pick at the glitter. Swatches are with 1 coat of Sally Hansen Black Out and 1 coat of 80's Fun.
I always note that I dab my glitters on, it's how I apply all my glitters, no matter if it's a topper, a crelly, or a jelly glitter mix. I swirl the brush in the bottle and slowly pull it out, wipe of excess on one side, then apply the polish by laying the brush flat against my nail and dabbing. Repeat if I missed any corners, then use the brush tip to arrange any of the larger glitters where I want. I find that this technique gives me the most even coverage.

Silence Surpise is a gorgeous blue leaning purple. The formula is just as good and easy to use as all the other Shinespark Polishes I've reviewed so far. It spreads like butter, really smooth and a joy to apply. It dries relatively quickly, 15 minutes or so, to a super shiny finish. I used 2 coats with no topcoat for my swatches. Indoors, it looks like a pretty purple with silver shimmer, then you take it outside and BAM! The linear holo really comes to light. It isn't the strongest of linear holo finishes, but it is linear and not scattered, just more subtle. Overall, it's a beautiful color and it is much stronger in person.

Magento is a super bright, neon pink linear holographic polish. It was really hard for me to capture the holo on camera because of the intensity of the color. It was either really holo and sparkly, but causing lens flare, glare, and not color accurate; or color accurate but not as sparkly as it really is. This color is really bright, and really sparkly. I've never seen a neon holographic before quite like this one. In the sunlight pics you can see the linear holo rainbow in the bottle, that's how it looks on the nail as well.
Formula is exactly the same as Silence Surprise, smooth like butter, and super shiny. 2 coats with no topcoat for the swatches.
Moondust Holo topcoat

Moondust Holo is a linear holographic topcoat. You apply it over your base color and it turns any color into a linear holographic. I've fallen in love with the idea of neon holographics so I swatched Moondust Holo over Rainbow Chaser. I used 1 coat of Moondust Holo over 3 coats of Rainbow Chaser. Under the LED lights, you can see that it just adds silver shimmer to the base color, but that it also dries to a shiny finish. Since it is a topcoat, you don't have to add anything else on top unless you're really pressed for time and need a quick dry topcoat.
I've been really impressed with all of the colors that I got from Shinespark Nail Polish to review. They are all 5 Free and have wonderful formulas. I can't wait to see what else is in store for this brand new indie.
