Zoya Finley and Merida

Zoya is a very underrepresented brand within my collection, but when I saw the stunning polishes in the Fall 2016 Urban Grunge collection I knew I had to have most of them.  Zoya had an amazing promo a few weeks ago where the 3 holo stunner shades were free with the purchase of $30 of other polishes. If you aren't already following Zoya on social media, you need to. They offer great promos like this all the time.
Finley
3 perfect, easy coats. If you do thicker coats than I do, this could for sure be a 2 coaters and possibly a 1 coater. I love this polish, there isn't much else to say. My only complaint is that it didn't wear very well on me, I had some significant chipping on both pointer nails by the end of the day. I have all of the other shades in this finish and I usually get better wear from them. 

Merida
Saved the best for last. I love love love green polish and this did not disappoint! The formula was flawless and this could easily be a 1 coater, but I am a habitual 3 coater. 

Dear Zoya, please make every single color in this scattered holo formula, preferable starting with a rich brick red or burgundy :)

Stay Sparkly,

Painted Polish Holo Spam

While Painted Polish's glitter bombs are still my favorite, the linear holographic polishes are really beautiful and so sparkly because of the added holo glitter. I'm sorry that most of these shades are now discontinued, but they are so pretty I didn't want to leave them out.
