HITS Apolo, Hermes and Dionisio from the No Olimpo Collection

Once again, THANK YOU Leah Ann at shop.llarowe.com for making more wonderful, formerly unattainable in the US, polishes available to us!

Today I'm showing the love for HITS Apolo, Hermes and Dionisio from the No Limpo Collection. I really want Zeus too, but it was sold out when I ordered. I WILL have it, though. Eventually. Showing the love that my photography skills don't do justice to, but love, nonetheless. These three Brazilian polishes are very strong linear holo polishes that really must be tried for full appreciation.

All photos are in artificial lighting, no flash. The sun has decided to go on vacation here for a while, but the linear is so strong, it "don't need no stinking sun!" (bonus points if you get the Treasure of the Sierra Madre reference!) I use a base coat and one coat of a random same-color-family polish and no top coat for the photos. I know these can be worn alone, but every drop is precious and I just like layering it over another, less precious polish.

All three applied quickly and easily with no issues.  The brushes are good and the formula is smooth. They dry quickly and the linear holo effect works equally well with or without a top coat.

First up is Apolo, a great blue linear holo.

And finally, Hermes, a gold linear holo. (How could I NOT buy a polish called Hermes?)

I sure do love me a linear holo! Have you ordered these yet?
