Pupa M234 Blue Holo - swatches and review

For this Holo Friday I've got an Italian blue holo polish to show you! :D
My boyfriend got me some Pupa polishes last time he was in Italy skiing and this is one of them.
This is a sheer blue polish with a lot of holographic glitter in it.
Due to it beeing sheer, I've layered it over another blue polish.


GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT PUPA M234:

Type of polish: Holographic glitter.

Colour: A dark blue packed with holographic glitter.

Opacity: Hmm... This is two coats over an already opaque blue polish. To make it opaque on its own would probably take 4-5 coats... So the opacity is not that good I'm afraid.

Drying time: Normal.

Formula: Good! Perhaps a bit thick, but still very easy to apply.

Brush: Good! Not thin nor thick. Easy to work with.

Shine: Shiny on its own. No top coat in these pictures. I added a top coat on one nail after taking these pictures and it looked even better. So try it with a top coat!

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Accurate. But more glittery and sparkly IRL! :D

Grade: 4+/5 :)

Even though this polish is sheer I still like it! And a lot of times we layer holo polishes over other polishes because they are sheer or because we want to save on those precious drops ;) So I don't see it beeing sheer as a problem actually. Of course it's always easier if you can just use one polish and get it opaque ;)

I love the deep blue colour of this polish and that it has so much holo glitter in it! :D The only thing that I just don't understand is how you can name a beautiful polish like this M234?!?! Imagine it beeing called "Blue Galaxy" or something :) Better, isn't it? ;)

Do you like this polish ladies?
Have you tried any Pupa polishes?

    1. Hi darling! :D
      LOL! Yes, it is pretty gorgeous isn't it? :D My hubby is sweet as sugar - most of the time ;) LOL!
      Do you have Pupa in Switzerland? I mean you are so close to Italy ;)
      I wish you the same pet! xxx

    2. Sadly no - no Pupa, no Kiko, no Layla. And Switzerland was polish wasteland for a long time. To the day wearing bright colors or nailart is exotic here. We mostly see pinks, reds, nude and vampies

  8. WOAH! Underbart fint! Dreglar nästan på datorn så fint! Underbart bra bilder också. Har inte hört om Pupa innan men jag ser ju att det är en trevlig bekantskap! Och fantastisk snäll pojkvän du har som köpte det åt dig. ;P

    1. Tack! Ja, det är bra att ha papper till hands när man surfar runt på lackbloggar ;) Man ser ofta Pupa på italienska bloggar, men de har en konstig tendens att enbart skriva på italienska ;) Å ja, min kille har sina goda sidor ;)

  10. Wow denna e riktigt riktigt fin!! Det är ovanligt med blåa lack som har så här mkt holo. Isadora har tidigare släppt nåt liknande i svart, fast Pupa vinner! :) Skicka gärna S. till Italien snart igen nu när han har så bra smak ;) xoxo

    1. It's really beautiful!
      I don't know much about it I'm afraid...
      My boyfriend got it for me in Italy (on some ariport) and it was part of a pack of three polishes in a small blue glitter bag. It was this polish, a blue shimmer polish (which I'm showing today) and a clear polish. Does this help you..?
