Sephora Color Hit Shimmery Light Grey

U jesen 2014. godine Sephora je u sklopu Grey Obsession kolekcije ponudila i par prizmatičnih lakova - srebrni i tamno sivi, što su i najčešće verzije holosa koje ne-indie brendovi prave kada požele da se upuste u tu avanturu. Pošto u kolekciji imam nekoliko sličnih lakova, nisam žurila da nabavim ovaj par, ali na kraju su prevladali radoznalost i želja da proverim može li Sephora da nabravi pristojan holo lak. Njih sasvim izvesno nema više u ponudi, mada su se prilično dugo povlačili po onim činijama sa nijansama na snjiženju te ih je možda još uvek moguće naći. Takođe me ne bi začudilo ni da ih Sephora u nekom momentu vrati u proizvodnju i ubaci u stalnu postavku.

For autumn 2014. Sephora had placed on market Grey Obsessions collection and part of it was a couple of prismatic polishes - silver and dark grey, which are the most common choices for non-indie makers when they want to try to make holos. Since I've already had several similar polishes I was not in a hurry to get this pair, but in the end my curiosity and desire to see if Sephora could make a decent holo polish got the better of me. These are no longer available, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were brought back at some point in future.

Sephora Shimmery Light Grey je srebrni, zapravo aluminijumski siv holo lak sa veoma suptilnim linearnim efektom. Iako se čini prozračnim, dovoljno je pigmentisan da se ne može koristiti kao holo nadlak, a da mu ne izmeni znatno boju baznog laka. Izuzetak je svakako srebrni lak. Konzistencija mu je nešto gušća, kao i većini Color Hit lakova, ali mu je struktura takva da ne zahteva posebnu bazu. Dva sloja su potrebna za punu pokrivenost. Sjaj laka je visok, plastičan. Nadlak ne umanjuje holo efekat. Suši se prosečnom brzinom.

Sephora Shimmery Light Grey is a silver, actually aluminium grey holo polish, with a very subtle linear effect. Even though it seems sheer, it is pigmented enough that it can't be used as a holo top coat without drastically changing colour of base polish. Off course, the exception is silver polish. As most of Color Hit polishes it has somewhat thicker formula, but it doesn't require any special base coat. It takes two coats to get full coverage. It dries to a high, but plastic gloss. Top coat doesn't diminish the effect. Drying time is average.
