They're so good!! Thank you for swatching even though they're sold out. I just love to see them. She did a demonstration during stream of like 12 different ways to make an opal polish with existing HT polishes, so I get why they went with tourmaline instead (esp since they've released a ton of whites this year). But I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually got a true opal polish in a future declassified collection since she got such flack for it (Oct babies were going feral on her socials lol!)
Oh I wasn't aware of any of that! I was definitely a little sad to not see an opal polish tbh haha. I would love to see a collection of opal colors from HT!
So true about the October babies and I was one of them 🤭 all in good fun of course. I actually think it was almost like being in on an inside joke with her, especially since she named the polish "Birthday Brat". She was totally making a nod to the October baby feud between opal and tourmaline. I thought it was hilarious, even if I'm an opal lover myself 🙏🏻
I think half the problem with an opal polish is that is going to have a lot of variance. Different opals from round the world vary by their colour, clarity and even highlight colours. It's never going to be true to just one style. I mean even heat affects the characteristics of an opal. 😊 It's why they're so unique. But also gutted not to see it even so. 😂 You can't win them all.
I'm also an October baby that was upset about pink tourmaline v opal lol. I still ordered birthday brat though, I love frosted metals so I'm stoked that was our formula. Justice for frosted metals!
i happily sat this one out, but it’s nice to see live swatches, so thank you as always for that. i do think my birthstone (emerald) was represented well, but i have so many greens at this point i feel i’m covered.
Thanks so much Kelli for indulging us all going ahead with filming the swatch video even thought they sold out. We TRULY APPRECIATE you for it! I know that Oct has been getting alot of slack but I honestly loved that she did a frosted metals pink. I’m an Oct baby and I love opal but I don’t care for it on my nails. Not to mention HT has already made several pearl like opalescent polishes. So I can see where she would change it up. It’s too bad they sold out so quickly.
Tanzanite birthstone and the colour is stunning. As someone who loves deep purples, I adore it. But also as someone whose favourite stone is alexandrite, when I heard "birthstone collection" I was crossing my fingers, and I am NOT disappointed! It looks identical to the colour shift on a ring I wear every single day!
I ALMOST didn't buy it on launch day. I was going to wait for next week's payday, but because I'm treating myself more for my birthday month, I just went ahead and bit the bullet. I'm so glad I did because it sold out so fast.i even got the birthday cake nail oils. 💅🏾
I did the same thing! I splurge a little bit more( A LOT MORE) on my birthday month too and decided to get a couple. I got Birthday Brat and The Price is Alexandrite(June is my boyfriend's birth month), and I'm so glad that I did because Alexandrite sold out like 10 minutes after I bought it! I had a feeling that it was one of the first to sell out
I never mind seeing swatches of sold out polishes, because I just love looking at gorgeous polishes! I didn't bet to get any of these this time, but I will if they restock. I love them all, and definitely would have to get Peridon't Bother Me since that is my month, my favorite color, and I love the name! 😂 I really love this whole collection.!
Thanks for the swatches!! I had a feeling "Ruby, Madly, Deeply" leaned a bit towards the orange-y side, so thanks for confirming that. 😊 I'm sure the team will restock as many as they can. Simply mentioned during the livestream that they will also base decisions depending on how many people click "notify me" of each polish to gauge which shades are in high demand.
I def would have loved a pinker tone for that one as a July baby, but I figure it would have been too simlar to the pink so I do love the red for what it is haha!
I was waiting for your review on this collection. Having just about every Holo Taco polish, I wasn't going to buy the entire collection but I'm so glad I did. I can't wait to try them all. I honestly didn't think it was going to sell out.
I picked up Birthday Brat for my October birthday, July in honor of my sister’s birthday, and Peridon’t Me for my hubby and kids August birthdays. My first Holo Taco purchase.
Gosh, the swatches I’ve seen from HT didn’t have me wanting this collection but now I’m really hoping they’re able to restock. Every single color is amazing!!! 🤩
My birthstone is the Pink tourmaline. They did a very pretty pink for October, but I would have loved to see their take on an opal polish. I'm still thankful I have Mooncat's "Curiosities Prey" for that 😊 Overall this was a gorgeous collection, even if I'm on a "no buy" for the foreseeable future 😅
I was listening to Christines launch day live in the background while I was working, wasn’t planning on buying anything right away but I heard her say at like 3 or so hours into the live that one was almost sold out so I put in an order. She said that she’s planning on restocking the most popular shades provided they’re able to source the pigments for those shades so I still thing the swatches are helpful. I bought Playing with Sapphire, Birthday Brat, and Tanzanite Away. I really hope she restocks the emerald one because it was the third most popular and I’m kind of regretting not getting it now after seeing everyone else swatch it lol, and the diamond one is pretty incredible too.
I had vowed not to get it and like you I was just watching or listening in the background and Ben came they muted the mike…. Then she came back and said they were going to be selling out…. I was like $$$ here ya go!
These are gorgeous! I was able to grab the full collection and the vanilla cake cuticle oil. I’m so excited to get them. My birthstone is Sapphire and I think HT did a great job with that one.
I can't WAIT for the vanilla nail oil, I got two two packs cause I was scared it would sell out. lol, it didnt and all the polishes did. Seriously tho, its super shocking that it happened so fast, made my head spin haha.
I like all of these polishes but there were a few that I wish were the other “stone” for that month. I’m a December birthday and although I like the tanzanite color in this collection, I would’ve liked to see the traditional blue topaz color or turquoise. October really disappointed me because I would’ve loved to see an opal flaky one. Overall it’s a nice collection.
See this collection seems to be fine and go on well you seemed to have an easy time applying. This is one I would have contemplated owning some from. Pretty polish nice combinations. Thanks for the swatches Kelli great job!
I woke up so early and I am so happy I bought it!!! I watched her stream haha 🤣 and went to work right after so I was tired out . My favorite is tanzanite and I almost love that sapphire 😮
Thank you for this video! I was unsure of how sparkly they all looked on the HT website photos and thought they were too loud, but they look much better here. Might grab some if they ever make a comeback...
I'm a March baby and I love my birthstone. Happily Ever Aqua is very pretty. Probably not groundbreaking, though. I feel like that is probably the easiest one to find a dupe/alternative polish if it were not to come back. The tanzanite one is freaking gorgeous! 😍
I was lucky enough to pick the whole bundle, I cannot wait to receive it! I absolutely love every polish in this collection!! My birthday is in May and it is my favourite of the bunch! Emerald City is such a dreamy shade 😍
Thanks for the swatch video doll! Love seeing how the different colors apply with each swipe/coat! You have an amazing channel! As someone whos newer into nail polishes I've been loving all of your older videos to look back on and see what all I've missed or never knew of since I wasn't into polishes before. Plus I just enjoy watching these swatch videos. 😅❤
I'm watching again after they restock lol I opted to get 5 of them and I'm very excited! Tanzanite Away is my absolute fav from the collection. It reminds me of my favorite nail polish from another brand, Ghost Manor by Kathleen and Co. I look forward to a side by side when it comes in!
i think this is the most dynamic and interesting HT collection released so far! i'm really happy with how it features so many formulae and formulae that are so different and unique!! tanzanite away is especially so pretty, what a lovely polish
My birthstone is sapphire, and I think Cristine did a fantastic job capturing that stone. I’m currently wearing Tanzanite away and Peridont bother me for Halloween. And those two are by far my favorites from the collection. I’m absolutely obsessed! I thought I was going to miss the launch. I was driving 1000 miles back home from a family road trip that day. But During our quick lunch stop I just impulse bought the entire collection. Got home the next day and heard it sold out already. I’m glad i didn’t wait! I do love all of the polishes. I am very happy Cristine is planning on restocking what they can tho, so many people missed out on this one. And it’s just SO GOOD. ❤
wow i don't normally go for reds but Gosh Garnet is beautiful! Tanzanite Away is also a fav! i don't mind you posting videos of polishes that are no longer available because it helps familiarize me with brands and gives me ideas of what to look out for in the future!
Been looking forward to your video on these!! I got January (my bday) and April; so excited to try them. I loved seeing people's positive responses on Garnet, Peridot, and Topaz, since those are kind of the underdogs of the birthstone game and especially Topaz is so unique and cool!
@@Michelle-DiPalo So many people dislike their birthstones lol. I'm also one of them. I typically hate april/diamond anything. cause diamonds are just super boring and lame to me, personally XD But it turned out SO gorgeous. I've always been a fan of Peridot tho, its so pretty and interesting. Opal is my all time fav tho ngl.
So glad i always set an alarm for HT drops and purchase immediately on launch days. I had a feeling before this release that it was gonna go really fast.
Yeah i didn't even have a chance to get off work! They were all gone except for the pink. My wallet wasn't mad about that! But these are very pretty & thank you for the swatches!
I'm glad holo taco is restocking these it gives me a chance to get my favourites lets hope they stay in stock for a while too i love these no wonder there so popular
Just to be super clean Cristine and the HT team said not all the polishes will be restocked. They are going to look at sales data and also pigment availability. I may be wrong but I think I recall her saying that Tanzanite Away wasn't likely to be restocked because it uses hard to source pigments.
I hope they restock this collection. I was so excited for it. I was sitting at a family member's house with it in my cart, but then she wanted to look at all the polishes and maybe throw in a few on my order. By the time she got done the collection was sold out and I was so mad… LOL 😏
Love the videos you do. Just a quick note that a couple of these polishes also have a reflective glitter in, Sapphire Away and Ride or Diamond in particular. Just in case anyone is interested
I was able to get one i wanted but missed out on the others. Ce la vie, eh? In the end the hobby shouldn't make or break my mood for long 😊 Excited to see your swatches.
I love my amethyst but Im so disappointed because whenever companies make gemstone colors they go with light purple. Amethysts can be deep beautiful purple. I was also wondering if "The Price is Alexandrite" is a dupe with Mooncat's "Am I Everything You Fear" because they have similar vibes.
Am I Everything You Fear? is basically Spirit Fingers with a -tinge- of teal, actually making it a richer color. Dark Night of the Soul by Mooncat looks more like Alexandrite. Throw a scattered Taco on it and it's identical.
So true about that! Actually the darker the more precious and rare the amethyst is. Would love to see a colour closer to that…maybe companies should do more research? 🧐
@@hollystahl5527i would have never thought Dark Night of the Soul was anything like Price is Alexandrite. DNotS looks like a deep blue in the swatches!
I missed this collection since we were traveling, so I'm glad she's going to restock. I don't need all of them but thanks for the swatches... That will help me decide.
I bought the set and am waiting for them to be delivered. They’re currently on route to the UK! Thank you for reviewing, I value your take on polishes ⭐️
I missed out on the whole collection bundle bc some of the shades were sold out when I woke up for my night shift. I ended up getting all the available colors except Peridon't Bother Me. That one reminded me a lot of the green from a different HT collection I have, so I didn't want to take it from someone who might really enjoy it. The diamond inspired shade is spot on & I LOVE it. I can't wait to have that sparkly beauty on my nails.
Great! Where I live it's 1 o'clock in the morning so this will be my video to fall asleep to 😂 good morning, good day or good night to anyone reading this ❤
I am a November baby and the Topaz polish was a surprise. The traditional birthstone is Imperial Topaz which is a medium golden/red/peachy color. This polish looks more like Whiskey Quartz, which is not a birthstone. That said, I do think this collection is really beautiful. ❤
As a note for the restock, she said it all depends on popularity of the polishes that sold out as well as the materials and pigments used if they have the supply for it or not
It's not necessarily undecided on the restock, she's trying to determine interest for the ones that people are more interested in having restocked. There are some that are harder to restock like the ones with the tanzanite and the Alexandria colorations, so the ones that are easier to restore and what they might have on hand or ready with pigments will be what can be brought back so long as people show interest in it. On her website she has a notify me button for the polishes and she's using the information from people signing up with those to determine which ones might get brought back
@@Agent_L84 the Alexandrite and the tanzanite polishes had harder to resource pigments, so those most likely may not be able to be restocked especially the tanzanite, she got all that was available that pigment and used it in the initial stock for release. If there are *any* of those two left CS helps with possible mail issues of polish going MIA in transit (which has happened to me before), they'll likely be in the vault opening day during the 12 days of Cristmas she does in December (don't take my word for that, though, it's only speculation on my part)
These are so pretty. Hopefully they do restock them. I’m tanzanite although I don’t know if I can pick a favorite. That’s always really hard for me because I generally like at least most of a collection.
The collection was exciting with different formulas. Mine is November and I was hoping for a more warm amber colour. It was a bit of a let down but all the other colours and formulas I loved I was able to get 8. Alexandrite sold out while it was in my cart. Thanks for the swatches!
I was able to grab the collection because I took my lunch break at launch. Your video made me more excited to get my order😊 I was born in September and I think the shade was a perfect sapphire shade💙
I was hoping to get Peridon't (my birthstone and also I love green) but alas! Hopefully it will be one of the restocked colors, but if not, I'm sure I can find something similar elsewhere. Thanks for swatching the collection!
Crushed hollo, crystal mommy is the one that caught my eye. I love that formula. Weirdly, I’m into cremes right now so I didn’t have much FOMO on this one. Pretty polishes. I was one of the lucky nes to get the Safiya collab set last year and I am really enjoying them this month.
Thanks for sharing! I missed this launch and I would likely have bought them all. So hopefully they will be able to bring them back. They would likely sell out again!
@@KelliMarissa I moved to Alaska from the East Coast... the time shift has me all mixed up still. I totally missed almost all the polishes. There were like 2 left when I got online. Lol
100% agree with you on never thinking I was born in the wrong gen. I’m a 90’s (1993) baby and proud! I have never wanted to be born a different generation. I love the fact I got to see technology grow to what it is today. And like you, I can’t wait to see where it keeps going. Thinking back to my brick of a first phone(Nokia lmao) and holding my new iPhone… man we’re so lucky to see this. Oh! And I swiped 3 of the polishes I loved most! Birthday Brat, Ride or Diamond and Happily Ever Aqua! Now seeing the swatches though, I’ll definitely snag a few more if they do restock!
Love to see your swatches! I only discovered HT less than a year ago, so this was my first experience with a collection selling out so fast. I was a bit lazy and didn’t set an alarm, but I was able to buy 8 of the 10 shades I wanted, so I count myself lucky! I’ll definitely pick up the other two if they get restocked, but I’m not too fussed. I’m an October baby and I’m really happy with Birthday Brat…I love pink and am not big on pale shades, so I don’t miss opal (especially with all the Unicorn Skins). I also love Emerald City - jelly flakies own my heart, and your love of green has really rubbed off on me 😂 Can’t wait until my order arrives! I would totally rather be an average person today than ancient royalty. I would not have survived in any earlier time period, and I like indoor plumbing.
I got all but 4 of them, i'm hoping for a restock too. I really want decembers. I swore it was in my cart, lol but it wasn't. Fingers crossed we get a restock for everyone.
Yay! I’m so glad you swatched them! I need your input, always! I ended up grabbing the entire collection and surprised myself how much I’m looking forward to Topaz Tears and all the greens (who even am I? Hahaha) ❤
I was able to pick up some of them at the time of launch! The price is Alexandrite is my favorite but I'm an August baby (Peridont bother me is my birthstone) I picked it up for that reason but they made it pretty! I'm also very excited for that pink foil polish!
I’m so glad I was able to buy the collection right at launch! I was still at work and had to close down the exact time of the launch, luckily there weren’t any guests (reception work) so I quickly placed my order and then closed everything. By the time I got home and had time to check almost everything was gone🫣
I think your reasoning for your answer of thr QotD is so interesting because I've thought the same thing; but I've also wondered if I would've had the same issues back then than I have today. Modern solutions are responses to modern problems. Just a thought. =)
They don’t test their products on animals, but they do test them on Beyyyn! Lol 😂

The bringer of the tea! Literally.

Agreed so much on October/Opal. I know eight people with their bdays this month and no one likes tourmaline lol
It's not the same, but I think you could do a great opal with Not Milky White and a topper of Everything Taco.

@@Michelle-DiPalo So many people dislike their birthstones lol. I'm also one of them. I typically hate april/diamond anything.
cause diamonds are just super boring and lame to me, personally XD But it turned out SO gorgeous.
I've always been a fan of Peridot tho, its so pretty and interesting. Opal is my all time fav tho ngl.
@glittermoondust Lol. I'm a purple girl, so Amethyst is my all time fave.
I ordered 6 of the 12. My stone is alexandrite and it definitely is one of my top picks! Cant wait to try it out!
So glad i always set an alarm for HT drops and purchase immediately on launch days. I had a feeling before this release that it was gonna go really fast.
Yeah i didn't even have a chance to get off work! They were all gone except for the pink. My wallet wasn't mad about that! But these are very pretty & thank you for the swatches!
I'm glad you enjoyed!!!
I'm glad holo taco is restocking these it gives me a chance to get my favourites lets hope they stay in stock for a while too i love these no wonder there so popular
Just to be super clean Cristine and the HT team said not all the polishes will be restocked. They are going to look at sales data and also pigment availability. I may be wrong but I think I recall her saying that Tanzanite Away wasn't likely to be restocked because it uses hard to source pigments.
They aren't restocking all of them, just the best sellers but it also depends on pigment availability
I hope they restock this collection. I was so excited for it. I was sitting at a family member's house with it in my cart, but then she wanted to look at all the polishes and maybe throw in a few on my order. By the time she got done the collection was sold out and I was so mad… LOL 😏
Love the videos you do. Just a quick note that a couple of these polishes also have a reflective glitter in, Sapphire Away and Ride or Diamond in particular. Just in case anyone is interested
Love the swatches! Bought them all immediately at 3am while working so I'm happy to see the pretties while i wait for them
Thank you so much for swatching. I missed out on getting them 😢 I need a restock asap.
I got 6 of them I think, and I am so excited to see The Price is Alexandrite in person!!
I was able to get one i wanted but missed out on the others. Ce la vie, eh? In the end the hobby shouldn't make or break my mood for long 😊 Excited to see your swatches.
I love my amethyst but Im so disappointed because whenever companies make gemstone colors they go with light purple. Amethysts can be deep beautiful purple.
I was also wondering if "The Price is Alexandrite" is a dupe with Mooncat's "Am I Everything You Fear" because they have similar vibes.
@@user-pz1mu3bv6d I'd love a deep purple with white magnetic shimmer that I could use to imitate natural variations and stripes.
Am I Everything You Fear? is basically Spirit Fingers with a -tinge- of teal, actually making it a richer color. Dark Night of the Soul by Mooncat looks more like Alexandrite. Throw a scattered Taco on it and it's identical.
So true about that! Actually the darker the more precious and rare the amethyst is. Would love to see a colour closer to that…maybe companies should do more research? 🧐
@@hollystahl5527i would have never thought Dark Night of the Soul was anything like Price is Alexandrite. DNotS looks like a deep blue in the swatches!
@Vania99090 a deep purple with white magnetic flecks so I could get those natural variations would be so awesome!
I missed this collection since we were traveling, so I'm glad she's going to restock. I don't need all of them but thanks for the swatches... That will help me decide.
I bought the set and am waiting for them to be delivered. They’re currently on route to the UK!
Thank you for reviewing, I value your take on polishes ⭐️
Oh that is a gorgeous collection!
I think so too!
Gosh garnet, Topaz tears, Happily ever aqua, Tanzanite away and Crystal mommy are my favourites!
You are my favorite nail UA-camr.❤❤❤❤❤. Love your videos.
I missed out on the whole collection bundle bc some of the shades were sold out when I woke up for my night shift. I ended up getting all the available colors except Peridon't Bother Me. That one reminded me a lot of the green from a different HT collection I have, so I didn't want to take it from someone who might really enjoy it. The diamond inspired shade is spot on & I LOVE it. I can't wait to have that sparkly beauty on my nails.
Peridot
@@teresagabriela5806 I love the punny name she came up with on that one. It reminded me of Indigo Away
Great! Where I live it's 1 o'clock in the morning so this will be my video to fall asleep to 😂 good morning, good day or good night to anyone reading this ❤
Same, goodnight to us 😴
Hope you sleep well!! 🥰🥰🥰
Its midnight where I live. Good night to you to🙂
I am a November baby and the Topaz polish was a surprise. The traditional birthstone is Imperial Topaz which is a medium golden/red/peachy color. This polish looks more like Whiskey Quartz, which is not a birthstone. That said, I do think this collection is really beautiful. ❤
I’m also a November baby and your description is so much kinder to the shade of yellow topaz that is traditionally November lol
As a note for the restock, she said it all depends on popularity of the polishes that sold out as well as the materials and pigments used if they have the supply for it or not
So, it's undecided if they'll restock? Kinda encouraging I may be able to get some of these. Here's to hoping 🤞
It's not necessarily undecided on the restock, she's trying to determine interest for the ones that people are more interested in having restocked. There are some that are harder to restock like the ones with the tanzanite and the Alexandria colorations, so the ones that are easier to restore and what they might have on hand or ready with pigments will be what can be brought back so long as people show interest in it. On her website she has a notify me button for the polishes and she's using the information from people signing up with those to determine which ones might get brought back
@@Agent_L84 the Alexandrite and the tanzanite polishes had harder to resource pigments, so those most likely may not be able to be restocked especially the tanzanite, she got all that was available that pigment and used it in the initial stock for release. If there are *any* of those two left CS helps with possible mail issues of polish going MIA in transit (which has happened to me before), they'll likely be in the vault opening day during the 12 days of Cristmas she does in December (don't take my word for that, though, it's only speculation on my part)
I've been eagerly awaiting your video, so excited 😻
Hope you enjoyed it! 🥰🥰
These are so pretty. Hopefully they do restock them. I’m tanzanite although I don’t know if I can pick a favorite. That’s always really hard for me because I generally like at least most of a collection.
OMGGGG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS NOTIFICATION!!! Hell yeah!!! love u Kelli!
Love this set. I’m topaz. Absolutely obsessed with it😍
The collection was exciting with different formulas. Mine is November and I was hoping for a more warm amber colour. It was a bit of a let down but all the other colours and formulas I loved I was able to get 8. Alexandrite sold out while it was in my cart. Thanks for the swatches!
So many people birthday in June, people love summer baby.
I love this collection. I did buy it. My birth month is June, I love The Price is Alexandrite. There were a lot of favorites in this collection.
Ooh that one is a gorgeous shade!
I was able to grab the collection because I took my lunch break at launch. Your video made me more excited to get my order😊
I was born in September and I think the shade was a perfect sapphire shade💙
I was hoping to get Peridon't (my birthstone and also I love green) but alas! Hopefully it will be one of the restocked colors, but if not, I'm sure I can find something similar elsewhere. Thanks for swatching the collection!
I got a extra topaz tears! Along with both greens and ride or diamond! ❤
Crushed hollo, crystal mommy is the one that caught my eye. I love that formula. Weirdly, I’m into cremes right now so I didn’t have much FOMO on this one. Pretty polishes. I was one of the lucky nes to get the Safiya collab set last year and I am really enjoying them this month.
Love your shirt btw!
Tanzanite away also has blue reflective glitters and it looks stunning with the flash on!
Thanks for sharing! I missed this launch and I would likely have bought them all. So hopefully they will be able to bring them back. They would likely sell out again!
Really hope they restock!!!!
Me too!!
I like these videos regardless of availability in this case - it's reaffirming I picked the right ones for me!
Was waiting for you queen!!😌☺️💕
Hehe hope you enjoy!!!
Glad you are posting.. she did say the best sellers would be back... which they all sold out immediately, so hopefully all of them!🎉
That would be great!
@@KelliMarissa I moved to Alaska from the East Coast... the time shift has me all mixed up still. I totally missed almost all the polishes. There were like 2 left when I got online. Lol
So many pretty colors. I liked a lot of them with just one coat.
Praying for a restock just for Tanzanite Away, so gorgeous and unique!!
Completely agree! I can’t wait to try it.
I think during the launch stream she said that one is unlikely because the pigments are hard to source 😢
@@spriddlezkinda weird because so many other brands have unusual looking pigments in their regular lines? I wish she spoke more about it
@@Mcat2040she is very particular about what pigments she uses so if she can't get it exactly the same she won't restock it
She said Tanzanite would not restock..
100% agree with you on never thinking I was born in the wrong gen. I’m a 90’s (1993) baby and proud! I have never wanted to be born a different generation. I love the fact I got to see technology grow to what it is today. And like you, I can’t wait to see where it keeps going. Thinking back to my brick of a first phone(Nokia lmao) and holding my new iPhone… man we’re so lucky to see this.
Oh! And I swiped 3 of the polishes I loved most! Birthday Brat, Ride or Diamond and Happily Ever Aqua! Now seeing the swatches though, I’ll definitely snag a few more if they do restock!
Love to see your swatches! I only discovered HT less than a year ago, so this was my first experience with a collection selling out so fast. I was a bit lazy and didn’t set an alarm, but I was able to buy 8 of the 10 shades I wanted, so I count myself lucky! I’ll definitely pick up the other two if they get restocked, but I’m not too fussed. I’m an October baby and I’m really happy with Birthday Brat…I love pink and am not big on pale shades, so I don’t miss opal (especially with all the Unicorn Skins). I also love Emerald City - jelly flakies own my heart, and your love of green has really rubbed off on me 😂 Can’t wait until my order arrives!
I would totally rather be an average person today than ancient royalty. I would not have survived in any earlier time period, and I like indoor plumbing.
Really bummed it sold out so quickly. Looking forward to a restock
I got all but 4 of them, i'm hoping for a restock too. I really want decembers. I swore it was in my cart, lol but it wasn't.
Fingers crossed we get a restock for everyone.
So excited for a review!!!
I got my collection! Im so excited for them to arrive!
They really nailed June's!
Just signed up to find out when they restock! Can’t wait! 😊
I'm hoping it happens soon!!
Yay! I’m so glad you swatched them! I need your input, always! I ended up grabbing the entire collection and surprised myself how much I’m looking forward to Topaz Tears and all the greens (who even am I? Hahaha) ❤
I always hated my birthstone so I actually really like this take on topaz. It looks a lot more wearable than just a warm yellow
Got a few -I was pleasantly surprised by alexandrite 😄
I was able to pick up some of them at the time of launch! The price is Alexandrite is my favorite but I'm an August baby (Peridont bother me is my birthstone) I picked it up for that reason but they made it pretty! I'm also very excited for that pink foil polish!
Very pleased they went with Alexandrite instead of pearl for June!
September and so far it looks very pretty. I did get the set and a back up. I’m super excited to receive them.
an extra back up set? or a sept back up?
@@glittermoondust 2 collections. For HoloTaco I always get a back up set.
i got the whole bundle but it hasn’t shipped yet 😔 so excited to receive it though
I ordered the second it dropped and mine finally shipped today.
I’m so glad I was able to buy the collection right at launch! I was still at work and had to close down the exact time of the launch, luckily there weren’t any guests (reception work) so I quickly placed my order and then closed everything. By the time I got home and had time to check almost everything was gone🫣
Oh this is everything i need✨✨✨Love you💕
Love ya!! 🥰🥰
Could you please do a short with dupes for these shades?❤️
I'll search my collection!!!
😊❤Some gorgeous colors!
I think your reasoning for your answer of thr QotD is so interesting because I've thought the same thing; but I've also wondered if I would've had the same issues back then than I have today. Modern solutions are responses to modern problems.
Just a thought. =)
I think I like the present day for the reasons you outlined, but damn, sometimes that '90s and early '00s nostalgia hits.
Happily Ever Aqua is the same formula as Toe Beans, and I’m so excited for my order to arrive because I think I might actually like my birthstone.
