Today I have for you China Glaze - LOL from the OMG Collection. I got this from eBay along with IDK and 2NITE for £10, total bargain! For those of you who aren't aware, the OMG Collection is one of the most sought after collections I've ever come across. Released in Spring 2008 the OMG collection consisted of 12 Limited Edition holographic polishes, unfortunately back in 2008 I had no idea about China Glaze, so I completely missed out on the opportunity to own them all. I have since, like every other polish addict in the world, started to lust over them and one day, I hope to make them all mine.
LOL itself is a gorgeous purple holographic polish, but it was a nightmare to apply. The formula was a bit gloopy and all over the place, but I can forgive it for that as the outcome is amazing. One HUGE disappointment for this polish is that it definitely needs sunlight to show it's true holo self, I found when indoors it just looked like every other purple on the market, tad disappointing, especially when there's hardly ever beautiful sunlight where I live! This one is definitely going to be a summer favourite though!

E.L.F: Dark Purple Glitter
Now, to be honest with you, I don't know what to make of this colour. A part of me absolutely loves it, but there's another part of me that doesn't. Dark Purple Glitter is one of the many polishes I purchased in ELF's 40% off sale for 90p, usually £1.50. It's a dark, vampy purple with blue toned glass flecks running throughout, giving it a lighter feel. Now, I was a bit disappointed with how this translated onto my nails, in the bottle it looks very glitter heavy, but on my nails there is hardly anything.
The application is very smooth and is opaque in 2 coats, as it is a glass fleck, the removal process is very quick and easy, which was good as I swatched a lot of polishes before and after taking this photo, many of which I'll have to re-do due to half hearted clean ups.
Kudos to all those polishaholic bloggers out there that swatch whole collections in one day, it gets very tedious very quickly, I can't imagine what it's like with full glitters!
If there's any specific polish you'd like to see swatched from my recent ELF Haul, let me know in the comments!!
