    Is Holo Taco for real with these new crèmes?! These are not three coaters! Some aren't even two coaters!! I'm swatching the new Down to Earth Bundle which includes six new crèmes and a new topper: Fallen Flake Topper. What do you think?
    The polishes featured in this video are at least 5 free and cruelty free.

    'not pressed' is speaking to my prugly loving heart.. I'm already imagining using different shimmers over it, like a glowy Blue to amp up the grunginess 🤩

    That topper perfectly captures the fallen leaves vibe. I don’t like rushing fall, but I’m loving this collection.

    the Glossy Taco is indeed thick, I think it works well with glitter polishes but not cremes. My favorite glossy topcoat is Glisten and Glow.

    • @beelzemobabbity

      It’s definitely intentionally thick. Pretty much every time Cristine uses it she says “nice thick glossy taco”

    That base coat ticks all the boxes: good for nails, slightly blurring, ridge filling. Sounds perf.

    I love your swatches because you always have short nails.... I am currently repairing some nasty damage done to my natural nails and they are shorter than they have been in a while.... So I enjoy seeing what the polishes look like on nails similar to mine.

    "anemic eggplant" hee hee! ☺ I love all of the fall colors, but definitely partial to Nightshade and with the topper, it is gorgeous 😍. I have also noticed Holo Taco to be a thick topcoat and it seems to thicken quickly over time as well. But that's ok, I make up for it by loving most all of their other polishes! Thank you for your review and for your sacrifice of wearing an autumn representative flannel shirt for the video. Time to get back into a tank now! 😅

    Wow, I actually loved all of these shades. I do think I am going to pick up that conditioning base coat- it looks like the perfect prep for crème Polish.

    I love Smoothing Base. It is a staple for me. Glossy Taco is thick. I used my rewards points to get a set of the wide brushes. Switching out the skinny brush for the thicker brush made a better application of Glossy Taco

    Loved your review! I usually don't buy a lot of Holo Taco because it's a bit pricy, especially for creams as I can definitely find a cheaper one that is just as good. For some reason though this collection of colors spoke VERY strongly to me and I bought them all lol. They fit fall perfectly I feel and I love the topper, they really nailed the fallen leaves look I think. I'm curious what base coats you use and recommend? I've started using Cuticula Limitless because of you and I love it!

    these are such gorgeous cremes! stay grounded + not pressed could combo to a caramel apple nail art. all these shades made me slightly think about autumnal treats.
    do you recommend a particular base coat to prevent staining? i've definitely gotten stained nails despite using a base coat, so i'm wondering if there are particular ones that are best.
