As someone who isn't really big on having a typical "rainbow collection", this is the first "rainbowish" set that I actually want! Perfect level of brights for someone like me and i think many of them will actually look nice with some of the colors I have from the Down to Earth collection.
I think a gradient from black to a rock candy finish at the tips would look cool. You could even add a French mani tip in white under the gradient to really make it pop!
I'm IN LOVE with this launch!! I rarely wear nail polish, so I have only bought the first ever box and a few shades here or there, but I love this one so much that I bit the bullet and bought the whole box. It is exactly my vibe. Thanks so much for this launch!!
Hello , I've been watching you for years . It's great to see you happy and streaming instead of creating youtube videos where you feel you have to perform ,but not too much which caused you stress !!!
The box is so pretty! Mine is getting delivered in two days and I can’t wait! I need Sugar Rush on my nails right away! It reminds me of one of my favorite China Glaze polishes, White Cap, but prettier!
First collection in a while where I’m truly hyped for all the colors!! I’ve been wanting a colorful crushed holo collection since I first tried the formula. 😈
Jam Session looks so… let’s just say I like watermelon candy 🤤 Never thought I’d struggle not to eat nail polish until the cookies and cremes collection, and now I’m just expecting to have to fight the urge every other collection 🤣
This is the first rainbow box I have bought. It arrived to the uk yesterday which was super fast! I love the formula and the colours and they all look even better in person! 🤩
I finally ordered the rock candy collection today! This one and the dark rainbow set are the only rainbow sets I actually wear the yellow (lemon sucker and lemon spritzer leaned a little green for me). But formula wise I'm just such a sucker for crushed holo, micro shimmers, and reflective taco which this collection is 2/3 so I'm jazzed :)
just got mine today and sunshine crush is literally the exact color i’ve been looking for as ssomeone who wears amethyst and citrine jewelry. it’s basically exactly the same color as citrine
I'm really curious if this is the eventual reworking of the gemstone collection Cris mentioned like 2 years ago. Initially she said she had the gemstone collection ready to go, but bumped it from one of the years' lineups, I want to say 2022? I've always wondered what finish the gemstone collection might have been. Rock candy has ruby, topaz, sapphire, amethyst and emerald. Or maybe the gemstone collection is deeper crushed holos and we still haven't seen it? IDK I've always been curious about this.
I need a crash course on the different formulas and what they mean xD like what does micro-shimmer mean? What's the difference between jelly and creme? I have no idea
Maybe I can help you out? 😊 micro-shimmer means the polish has a lot of really small bits of glitter that catch the light and shine. A creme are your regular polish and jelly are a more transparent formula that you need to build up, but it allows e.g. holo to shine through the layers.
I did buy Pop Rocker, Electric Sweetner and Sugar rush and they look stunning. I am on the fence if I should buy Sour note, Jam session and Blue Rizzler at this stage. The whole collection looks stunning but it was the cost for me that has me on the fence.
I have a general nail polish question as someone who is new to painting his nails. I often find my top coat brushes off some of the color underneath. How to I prevent that from happening?
Hmmm, is Holo Taco running out of ideas? Some of the recent collections look just slightly different than some of the previous ones.. Unless you are a collector, what incentive do you have to buy a pink that has a purple shimmer in it if you already have a pink with a normal shimmer/holo in it? I am genuinely curious, not trying to hate here, I just rly dont see that much of a color difference to get motivated to pay such a steep price + shipping for these :(
Well, there are only so many colours! It's nice to have variations of similar ones sometimes as even subtle changes in tones and styles and make different polishes more appealing to different people. 😁 I don't buy most of the boxes but try to get the ones I like the most from each collection 💖
I always wait to see the comparisons for this reason. I usually wait till the Black Friday Sale to make a bulk purchase for the year. That way I know if I really want the polish and to know a which shade/formula I want if a similar one come out. Unless it’s a limited edition polish then I might buy it. but just a little advice, I know I will miss out on boxes but it saves my wallet and collection space in the end
I don't think so. I think it's more a matter of there are only so many colors, so there really is a finite number of things that you can do. Also figure she takes feedback from the fan base, and is giving them what they want. People have been begging for a crushed holo rainbow since the Barista collection came out.
Honestly I really like this set... but, I'd have liked to have just seen the Unicorn Skins reformulated to a smaller grain pigment and have true crushed holos. That's one of my fave formulas. This just doesn't hit the same as Highest Bidder/Barista Box did, and I'd love to have those nano shimmers for layering over EVERYTHING instead of pre-included in the polish. I don't think she's run out of ideas, but I do think she's had issues with suppliers getting or being able to keep pigments for some of her more complex ideas.
You stated the differences in your post. There are nuances to every polish. It's not about running out of ideas. If the nuances are not a big enough difference skip over this collection. I have 4 red cream OPIs, one is a little pink, one is a little orange, one is a little blue, one has a very subtle shimmer. To some people they are the same, but I see the nuance.

Ditto!

As soon as I get a job I’m buying Holo Taco with my first Pay check! It’s my dream to do nails!
can confirm it’s so exciting to buy it with your paycheck
The box is so pretty! Mine is getting delivered in two days and I can’t wait! I need Sugar Rush on my nails right away! It reminds me of one of my favorite China Glaze polishes, White Cap, but prettier!
I didn’t always love the crushed holo formula - but this set with Spyglass have sold me! That added shimmer gives it that oomph!!
"This is the year of warm yellows!" she says as I look down at Beach Please on my nails right now. Shhh, she didn't mean it, ur beautiful!
First collection in a while where I’m truly hyped for all the colors!! I’ve been wanting a colorful crushed holo collection since I first tried the formula. 😈
yay you're going to love them!!
They look beautiful and delicious, even though they're not for human consumption. 😊
Got my collection today, and I love Sour Note! I'm usually a purple or blue polish wearer.
I love these slightly soured, sweet colours. I couldn’t resist the box either.
Jam Session looks so… let’s just say I like watermelon candy 🤤

I'm a die-hard for cool tones, but that Sunshine Crush really is gorgeous
Yes this one is probably the best rainbow selection
"For those about to rock candy, we salute you" OMG a Deep Rock Galactic reference! ROCK AND STONE!
I gotta get this collection asap, this collection over one coat black is gorgeous 😍😍😍

I'm getting my collector's box today! This polish is going on my nails TONIGHT.
I love the white!! Can’t wait for it!
My favourite part about the launch videos is the message reminding people to not eat the nail polish.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 cannot wait to get mines!!!!! The box is so sickkkk
These colors are amazing !!
Just placed my first ever order after summoning up the courage to finally watch your goodbye RUclips video, I'm so happy for you!
Jam Session is my fave. Gimme that sweet sweet watermelon colour!
This collection is beautiful! I wish you made gel polish, lol. I don't wear regular polish anymore, but I did buy the OG collection box!
I ordered the pink blue and purple.
I CANT WAIT
my box arrived today!! im at uni so im travelling home on sunday to get it! im so exited
Blue Rizzler looks periwinkle to me. As a blue/purple. But more blue.
Watching this while painting my nails rainbow :)
I don't own any holo taco yet but I want to one day.
That yellow is just gorgeous. It’s my fav then the green Is my next fav
I love watching ben swatching the nail polish 😂.. his nails are small
this is eye candy😍
for a stream highlight or youtube short you should do a tier list of all the holo taco collection boxes!!!
Pop Rocker looks really pretty next to Spyglass ugh

I am SO excited for Sunshine Crush, it’s on its way to me right now
So excited for this collection, but how could I not be, my name is Rock!
9:23 she read my mind (and perhaps also several comments)
I can only ever get these on my birthday because I’m poor haha and they never release around my birthday (nov3)
I did buy Pop Rocker, Electric Sweetner and Sugar rush and they look stunning. I am on the fence if I should buy Sour note, Jam session and Blue Rizzler at this stage. The whole collection looks stunning but it was the cost for me that has me on the fence.
I love this launch!
Sugar rush is gorgeous!
Do you have to do a top coat or a base coat
The hoodie is awesome how do I get
I have a general nail polish question as someone who is new to painting his nails.
I often find my top coat brushes off some of the color underneath. How to I prevent that from happening?
Less pressure, float the top coat on
Does Holo Taco ship to Singapore? I really like your nail polish line and have been watching your videos since voiceover days.
blue rizzler confused me cause in the UK a blue rizla is a type of cigarette rolling papers lol
or is that the joke???
I think her reference was a combo of Twizzler + rizz (new slang for charisma or coolness) but that's interesting
Is this a limited addition?
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
I need that blue
Wish it wasn’t so expensive to ship to Australia 🇦🇺 that’s why I have no holo taco anything 😢
Is there any NON STAINING Emerald and Sapphire polishes? I'm tired of having to deal with the stains!
Weird I bought sugar rush just yesterday
Did I just make the intro? 😂
periwinkle
💚💜🤍!!
🖤💚🧡💛🤍
It’s giving Barbie

Confused why you don’t do these type of videos and have them be on your main channel, it makes the most sense.
The colors are so nice! But the. The box is REALLY ugly - I’m so sorry, Cristine! But the box is your first ever Fail imo 🙂
it's beautiful. imo. and lots of other people's.
I hate this box too😭 but the colors are beautiful
