The Holo Deck Collection

***Press Sample***

It's been one helluva week.



So let's talk about the amazing Holo Deck Collection by Gothic Gala Lacquers!!  In celebration of her 2-year brand birthday, Samantha of GGL re-formulated and re-released her Star Trek themed Holo Deck Collection!  Of all the collections she's done thus far, this is definitely in my top 3 :)  Let's get to some swatches!

Note: Each polish is shown in two coats and topped with KBShimmer's Clearly On Top.  The nail white nail vinyls are from Lou It Yourself, and the dark blue vinyls are specially ordered from You Polish.

Let's start with "My Partner In Crime:"




My Partner In Crime is a mustard yellow with a subtle holographic shimmer throughout and is inspired by Geordi.

Next up is one of my favorites, "It's Green, Sir:"




It's Green, Sir is a deep forest green with a strong holographic effect and is inspired by Data.

Next is "Make It So:"




Make It So is a dark red polish with a strong holographic effect and is inspired by Picard and his ever so famous saying in the show :)

Here is "The Enterprise:"




The Enterprise is a dusty silver/grey with a subtle holographic effect and a blue shimmer, inspired by the Enterprise ship.

This one is my top favorite in the collection, "The Dancing Doctor:"




The Dancing Doctor is a deep royal blue with a strong holographic effect, inspired by Dr. Crusher.

And lastly is the bittersweet "The Search For Spock:"




The Search For Spock is a blackened purple jelly packed with chrome flakies and holographic shimmer throughout.  This gorgeous polish is not only inspired by Spock, but is in loving memory of the late and great Leonard Nimoy <3

I had no issues with the full collection - no formula issues, no thickness or goopy problems (even with this heat!).  It's a great collection, and a fantastic way to launch her two year brand birthday!!

As luck would have it, Gothic Gala Lacquers, along with the launch of this collection, is also having a sale to celebrate not only the brand's birthday, but the creator's, too!  Happy Birthday Samantha!!  

You can purchase this collection here at $33.50 for the 7ml mini size, or $43.50 for the 10ml full size.  For any other purchases you want to make, the main page is here

Use the code ANNIBIRTHDAY for a whopping 42% off your order (excludes customs) from today through the 23rd.  Please allow 7-10 business days for turn around time - this is a *huge* sale and I'm sure she will be bogged down with orders by the end of it :D

Any other time after the sale period, you can use the code MOMMRSANDME25 for 25% off your order ^_^  

So, what do you think of this collection??  Does it call to your inner Trekkie?  If not, does it call to your inner Holo Goddess? :D
