Holo Taco Birthstone Collection- November and December

Hello everyone! Today on the blog we have the last two polishes from the Holo Taco Birthstone collection, November and December. For this collection there was 12 polishes and I reviewed 2 at a time, which did take a while, but as stated in my first post of this collection I like to wear enjoy my polishes, now we have finally completed this collection. 😓😁

November' s polish is Topaz Tears this is described as a brown jelly base, with green/ gold iridescent flakes, and bronzed shimmer and scatted holo glitter. 

This polish applied very good in two coats. This polish had one of the best formula of this collection, this polish really did surprise me with the formula, and this polish was very unique. 

This polish did look a little bit different than the birthstone, but I do remember Cristine said she wanted to make this polish look unique to the birthstone. I actually like that she went with this, I am usually not a brown polish girl but this polish is so unique that I do like it.

Lastly we have December Tanzanite Away this is described as royal indigo jelly base polish, with red magenta micro shimmer, scattered holo and blue reflective glitter. 

This polish formula was not that great, it was sheer on the first two coats, and didn't have a smooth texture due to the reflective glitter, this does tend to make a polish look thick and lumpy. Before you apply a topcoat this polish does look dull, yes even for a glitter polish. Also I always wait a long time for my nails to dry 10 mins after I polish, then I apply a top coat then wait 30 mins for the full manicure to dry. This polish still felt tacky after the 30 mins, plus I did have to apply a second top coat due to it not being smooth and still looking dull. Lucky this polish did not dent because of it feeling still tacky, that feeling did eventually go away. 

This polish did represent the December birthstone well, this polish is pretty if only the formula was a little bitter, this polish looks best in sunlight/ bright light.

Here is the polish with the photograph light and my cell phone light, to try and show the reflective glitter. 

Hope all of you enjoyed this review of the Holo Taco Birthstone Collection. Stay tuned for my final thoughts on the collection.
