Today I have swatches of six beautiful holos from Black Dahlia.  This six polish collection called Holo Petals has three linear and three scattered holos. The formula on all these was slightly thick, but easy to apply and nicely opaque. I only needed two thin coats of each to achieve opacity.

All the polishes provide a wonderful mix of pigments and glitters creating unique and complex finishes.  Let's take a look at each one.

Gold Rush - A cool toned gold linear holo with a generous helping of holographic gold micro glitter and plenty of gold shimmer

Lilacs in Lava - a pale lavender leaning steel blue scattered holo. The press release says it also has neon purple flakies and glass flecks that shift from red to orange to gold although they aren't something that really stand out, more so they just enhance and compliment the other ingredients to provide a stunning shimmery finish.

Magical Moss -  Silvered celery green linear holo with silver and aqua micro glitter and blue glass flecks. 

Moonlight Daisy -  Royal blue scattered holo with blue, turquoise and silver micro glitter, red glass flecks and sapphire shimmer.  I thought the gold was going to be my favourite of this bunch, and I chose to wear it first, but then I put this one one an whoa, it's a stunner!

Mountain Laurel - Orchid pink linear holo with blue and purple glass flecks, and loaded with violet and aqua shimmer.

Turquoise Hibiscus - Turquoise scattered holo with glass flecks that shift from violet to blue to green, and blue and green micro to small hex glitter.

I have some serious swatch spam tonight of a new collection from Black Dahlia Lacquer called the Capital Collection.  The collection has 12 new shades and contains a mix of glitters, shimmers, flakies and holos.

The formula on all these was great.  I used two coats for all my swatches except the glitter bomb, followed with Seche Vite top coat.

90 in November - a plum purple with a shimmery micro fine glass fleck.

Austin city limits - a periwinkle blue holo with blue glass flecks, gold shimmer and gold micro glitter.  One of my favourites from the collection.

Barton Springs Babe - green crelly with blue-green shimmer and darker blue flakies.

Blue Bonnet Bingo - a bright blue crelly with purple shimmer and lighter blue flakies.  I love this bright blue, so perfect for our summer right now.

Capital Rose Garden - a soft neutral slightly coral pink with a soft scattered holo finish.  This one was really flattering on and a beautiful office appropriate colour.

Congress Avenue Bats - gun metal gray with a scattered holo finish. My bottle is called Congress Avenue Bats, but the version listed on the website is called South Congress Bats.  This was another favourite for me.

Lady Bird Lake - a navy blue holo with added gold shimmer and gold glass flecks.  This is a real winner for me with the combo of blue and gold. 

My Butter Half - a gold shimmer in a pastel yellow base with gold micro glitter.  This is an interesting polish, it's one of those shades that I don't know whether to call it a yellow or a gold. 

SXSW Fever - dark teal with green shimmer and bright blue flakies. 

Woke up on 6th street - This polish is easily a full coverage glitter, but I wore it as one coat over Blue Bonnet Bingo. I love the glitter payoff in this, so much glitter for just one coat.  It was a little thick because of the glitter, but certainly nothing unwieldy.  The polish is packed with holographic silver glitter and strong accents of gold and a few aqua and navy glitters.  A really pretty glitter bomb.

The Black Dahlia Capital Collection, along with about 6 other collections are available from Black Dahlia Lacquer
