This one in the newest collection appealed most to me--not the least because I knew it would match the copper wind chimes I got my mom for her birthday (I grabbed a bottle for her too). This formula made application ✨cha-cha real smooth✨
1 coat OPI Natural Nail Base Coat; 2 coats Copper Coated; 1 coat Essie Gel Couture Quick Dry Top Coat
So I think I would prefer Made me Ink if I could use a base color and fewer layers. What do you all like to use? I was thinking Indigo Away might be perfect?
Base coats - Peely Base with moat, Sticky Base.
Pink hand - Nip in the bud under Pink himalayan salt / Blushed ice on accent.
Olive hand - Not Impressed under Herb your enthusiasm / Sparkly Sh*t on accent.

Glossy Taco

I am doing a mani right now. I was using one coat black and not milky white for accent nails the rest are shimmers and they are transfering on to the top coat brush. This is the second time this has happend also the white is super streaky and patchy. I feel so frustrated because everyone online says HT has amazing cremes. Have you ever experiences anything like this too?
My husband says it looks like a pile of fall leaves and I’d have to agree!🍁
Products used:
1x HT quick dry base
2x HT Feeling Sparks (velvetized)
1x HT glossy taco
I've been moving & things. So wanted something simple to fix and a cover my naked babies, gotta to keep my nails safe..
Colours 💖🩷💖🩷
Scattered holo taco, sweetheart taco for the tiny hearts, and pop rocker French tip. And lots and glossy taco.
So I have Las Fallas from Dam shown on my nails. I was thinking about getting the holo taco copper coated. Im more of a shimmer girl so Im iffy about copper coated. I would even be open to a copper chrome powder. It also doesnt look like my lenses was clean when I took the pic but maybe yall get the gist of it. Tomorrow I wanted to pic up copper coated, maple glaze ( which may be close to my colores de carol whispers of a flame) , brulee me for sure and maybe dont be jelly which i might of duped while I was depressed ill add a Pic of that too. Truly I kept adding toppers to my nails and lost the plot but please let me know
From the new Spice Rack Collection.
Greetings from 35,995 ft!
When I grabbed my colors for the week, I was thinking about back to school and fun primary colors. I guess I was also subtly thinking about my usual commute! (I have a FIFO job.)
I couldn't resist the comparison shots with the seat back literature.

I do not always catch release streams, but I hopped on this one to catch some of the comparisons for the new Spice Rack shades.
If you'd like to hear Cristine weigh in on some of the logic about the business and preview some things in thoughtful ways, the second half of the stream is for you. I don't have time to toss out time stamps, but I'm sure the comments will include some good times.
Topics covered in calm and thoughtful ways (in no particular order):
- supply chain issues related to microflake pigments. (Will affect all makers, not just HT.)
- why Holo Taco is bringing back similar shades.
- gatekeepers aren't being nice, so maybe not?
- how some future retirements will be handled in the supply chain context.
- the customer base for HT is growing and changing.
- the Ulta customer base is different from the website base.
Since I got absolutely roasted in the other HT community for defending HT basically duping themselves with Coastal Cremes, I thought I'd share some of the logic that the business owner and chief decision maker has now released to us. Hope other data folx find some of the information in this stream helpful and kind.
First, I am not selling this I need to share a story.
My daughter got me into HoloTaco. She started following Simply during Covid. We shared our love of HT. I started collecting when she gave me the tea collection and box. We have both been collecting. It was truly a shared passion. We shared our love and I could always ask her for suggestions.
Tragically, she died in a car accident nearly two years ago at 24. To say our family has been devastated is an understatement. I have continued collecting HT and find Reddit to be a source where I can talk HT with others who have a passion. Thank you to everyone!!
We have not been able to go through her stuff yet. But today, while going through another area of the house I found some of her collection boxes!! She has all of them. She knew Spirit Fingers is my very favorite (Unicorn No. 1 is a close second.) I do have several backups of SF so I do not need this. I want to give this collection to her girlfriend who we truly love since she started collecting HT after that release.
I feel my daughter had saved this for me, at this moment, when I needed a reminder of her. ❤️🩹
Thank you for reading my story.
