    Yay, my new stamping plate has arrived and the patterns are big enough to do my full nail - it's Kand plate number M69 for £2.00 from ebay.

    Technic holographic polish sounds nice - what's the name of the colour?

    Google for swatches of Speciallita HITS No Olimpo, they will show you a really good holographic

    I've just brought Techic Holographic polish, only £1.99!
    I've put the bottle next to my GOSH Holographic polish bottle, and the shine looks exactly the same, may pop back for another 1 (or 2, I do love my Holos):D

    Let us know how you get on with the Technic (pics if poss). Would be great to find an affordable alternative to my beloved GOSH 549.

    Just tested it and it's not an exact dupe, but good enough if you can't get the GOSH one.
    The holographic definetly sparkles in the sun, I would post a picture but none came out well!

    It's just called Holographic.
    It's in a similar style bottle to nails inc, round with a silver lid.

    Yeah it's difficult to capture the holo effect on a photo. Thanks for the update.

    Is it nice? I went in to Bodycare today and picked up the holographic one, carried it around for a while and then decided against it as it just looked like a dull grey - is it nice and sparkly? I wanted to treat myself to a glittery polish today but nothing took my fancy in town - there was nothing special in Bodycare (couldn't see any mermaid (?), everything had been opened in Superdrug and Boots was just a bit bleh ... not a good nail polish day!

    It is sparkly when the sun hits it, perfect for summer I think.
    I went in looking for Mermaid too, but there was only a copper glitter left :(
    I did buy the Boujois nail polish remover pot from Boots.
    It works well, even with very stubborn Nails Inc 3D Glitter!!:T
