Catrice Plum Me Up Scotty

Marta 2014. godine, Catrice je ponudio dvadesetčetvorodelnu ograničenu kolekciju pod imenom Luxury Lacquers, koja je bila podeljena u četiri celine - Million Brilliance, Sand’sation, Chameleon (koju sam celu predstavila na blogu) i Holomania. Holomania se, začudo, zaista sastojala od holo lakova i to linearnih (Cosnova ima užasan običaj da duo- i multihromatske lakove naziva hologramskim). Imala sam sreću da jedan od njih dobijem u nagradnoj igri na Parokeets blogu, a nedavno sam se konačno nakanila i da ga namažem.

In March 2014. Catrice placed on market a twenty-four-piece limited edition Luxury Lacquers collection, that was split into four parts - Million Brilliance, Sand’sation, Chameleon (I have done posts on entire line) and Holomania. Surprisingly, Holomania does consist of holo polishes and linear ones at that (Cosnova is infamous for naming duo- and multichromatic polishes holographic). I was fortunate to win one of these at one of Parokeets' giveaways, and recently I finally gave it a whirl.

Catrice Plum Me Up Scotty uprkos imenu nije šljivast već prilično hladan bledo-lavandast linearni holo lak. Zbog hladnog podtona sam oklevala da ga nosim i mislim da ga neću opet nositi samog jer ne izgleda dobro na mom toplom tenu. Holo efekat mu nije baš jak, ali vidi se na suncu. Iako bi trebalo da se maže kao holo lakovi nove generacije, tj. bez potrebe za posebnom bazom i bez problema, meni je ispadao neujednačeno kada sam ga mazala preko obične baze. Barem dva sloja su potrebna za punu boju i ravnomernu pokrivenost. Veoma je dobar za pečatiranje, što možete videti u članku o Born Pretty pločici BP-41. Slike su snimljene na suncu. Imam dva sloja laka i nemam nadlak.

Despite its name, Catrice Plum Me Up Scotty isn't a plum-purple, but rather cold pale lavender linear holo polish. I was hesitant to wear it because it is cool-toned and I don't think I'll wear it on its own again because it clashes with my warm skin tone. Holo effect isn't very strong, but it is visible in sunlight. Even though it should behave as new generation holos, i. e. without need for special base coat and with no trouble, on me it went on patchy. It takes at least two coats to get even coverage and full colour. It is good for stamping, which you can see in my article about Born Pretty BP-41 image plate. Photos were taken in sunlight. I have two coats of polish and no top coat.
