[@cassandrathompson8482]

Really appreciate you showing the differences in particle size/shiftyness. I’ve tried just about every brand that has holos and imo nobody does holo better than Electrum Cosmetics. They’re extremely shifty, shiny, and the holo is very intense and doesn’t sit on top or sparse through. A lot of them are almost like pastel multi holos. I also really love Bella beaute bars single holos because they’re larger and more noticeable on the eye but they aren’t multichrome. Glam shops are really good but most have dark bases and unfortunately they’ve discontinued most of them. Touch of Glams are good but definitely not worth the price and some have dark bases/don’t shift even though they’re labeled multi. Quicksands are also not worth the price they’re like fantasy cosmetica and aren’t shiny at all. Really hoping to see more holos for 2024!

Fantastic video! Incredibly helpful for comparing particle sizes and overall effect. Yeah, holographic pigments are difficult to mix with shifting pigments. Holo particles have an aluminium layer that can block light entering or exiting particles below it and cause an overall duller or silvery effect. Also, there are just fewer shifting pigments whenever others are added. Shadows definitely need a high concentration of holo particles for full travelling rainbow effect. Holo particles have more waveform structure, whereas shifting pigments are more plate-like (similar to butterfly wings) - less waveform pigments and you get less of a travelling wave effect.

Love your content. You and Riley need to start your own indie makeup brand. Between the two of you I don't even really watch any other content anymore. Thank you for all you do!

[@salomefrancis5332]

Wow, you're like an encyclopedia of sparkly shadows. Really great vid. Super informative.

[@vinczemarti]

Loving these! I fell in love with Holo eyeshadows 3 years ago with Glam shop. I'm so happy it's entering the more well known indie makeup scene! I am currently waiting for Vega from Electrum Cosmetics to arrive and I am curious how it will compare to the other holos in my collection. Btw cleaning up those swatches was probably a story of its own 😂😂

[@kristentrep5038]

MILLY always hits these vids just right! I do love my multichromes and the few holo shadows that I’ve begun to collect are just so beautiful! I’m excited for some new ones too! I placed an Ensley reign order, and I’m counting down the days for my preorder!

[@kate98765]

The glam shop nude holos are soooo good. One of mine has gotten chunky over time, but it still works

[@shriyaverma2548]

Where can I find the glam shop page ?

[@janelee4232]

Love this video! I can relate to you as I love all of the shiny sparkly shadows.

[@arielts06]

You are amazing! Thank you for this in depth comparison. I prefer an intense scattered holo to a linear holo and now I know where to start. ❤🙏🏽

[@kierajomakeup]

I have been interested in trying out holo shadows as I’ve never tried any-this video is so comprehensive and helpful!

[@badtothebrow]

Glad it was helpful! ❤️

[@australiasuh9750]

Another *super* helpful swatching video, tysm ❤️ You inspired me to swatch my holochrome collection and I found that my Bipolar Sparkle (Australian handmade single shadow brand) single shadows have that delightful rainbow banding as light travels across it. By comparison, some holo shadows in palettes are more scattered (maybe it is a bit cheaper that way?) but I am definitely converted to the rainbow banded effect. p.s. I am not affiliated with the brand, just a makeup fan, Bipolar Sparkle has a 'mystery duo' holo shadow sale right now which converts to US 15 dollars and seven cents for two of their holo singles.

[@someusername4129]

Yessss I have hoped someone would talk about holo shadows.

[@Passportmeetsworld]

Great video. I love seeing the different shades from different brands and how they compare ❤

[@badtothebrow]

Glad you like them!

[@kittycloud6693]

Just 🤤 drooling over all the sparkles ✨

[@dawnshrewsbury4881]

Wow thank you for this. You captured these so well (as always). I love your videos so much. I understand the difference a lot better now. Have a great day!! Loved your look (short) with UE Dreamer palette

[@badtothebrow]

Thank you so much!

[@elisa-beary]

Wow these are stunning. I’ve had this on my watch later playlist & meaning to watch it. These remind me of what I love SO much about several of my mooncat polishes. The holo ones are stunning & look SO special!

[@sixweekoldhedgehog]

Rewatching! Really appreciate the deep dive!

[@creativelifescholars3818]

I’m so excited I had been waiting for this video! 🎉❤

[@BelleStreetBoyz]

These are so fun! I definitely plan to try some holo singles this year. Top of my list are a couple from Touch of Glam and Bella Beaute Bar. Thanks for sharing! This was super helpful. 💜🌷

[@rachelbest8177]

I would love to see you talk about Quicksand Cosmetics in a video someday! I have some of her holo shades and they’re very pretty and unique to my collection.

[@badtothebrow]

I have Samurai red out for delivery! But no holos, I don’t see any in stock either

[@rachelbest8177]

@@badtothebrow hopefully she’ll bring some back soon!

[@andreamarksberry345]

Thank you so much! I’ve been waiting for a video like this!

[@noopur_makeup]

Oooh this is such a good video! Also, your nails!!!

[@badtothebrow]

Thank you so much 😀

[@muumol]

Yes! Thank you! Been wanting this!

[@christinamoller4342]

Love your nails! Thank you for this video. I really want to get Digital Zombie Holo shade. That Dualism Beauty brand looks interesting.

[@badtothebrow]

They are pretty nice!

[@sseonghwaa7076]

I prefer holo shades without the multichrome because the different effects compete with each other too much. I have 3 shades from Glamshop, 1 from Touch of Glam and a few holo multichromes I made myself. I never thought about neutral holo shades so that's my next experiment.

[@megl2562]

Thank you so much for doing this! I was so curious about the comparisons.

[@marywiththelonghair1330]

Very much appreciate this video!!! Can’t imagine the amount of sparkle you had to clean off your arm from this video!! And how much sparkle was left!! ❤

[@badtothebrow]

Everything in my house is covered in sparkles 🤣

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

This was amazing. Thank you for going through the history and your experience in a very relatable way. Your expertise is shining and sparkling throughout this video. This was so full of information that I’ll have to bookmark it. What a treat ❤❤❤

[@beautyextravert]

This is SO helpful! Thank you! ❤

[@badtothebrow]

So glad!

[@CaitlinCostello]

These are so relaxing to watch!!

[@mybeautyfilledlife]

I was gifted 2 Glamshop Holo shades last year for my birthday and, while STUNNING, that formula is way too thick/creamy for my preference. I'm not the biggest fan of holo shades but this was extremely helpful showcasing the different formulas & brands! 💖

[@shannonphillips3717]

Great comparison round-up!

[@badtothebrow]

Glad you liked it!

[@bottlesofchris]

Such magical shadows. This was so fun tfs

[@sandyandchance]

For US brands Electrum Cosmetics really has exceptional Holo's. They seem a bit more finely milled than Glamshops but still pack in a lot of Wow & their colored ones show the color much better than Glamshops. Thank you for all the comparisons 😊

[@DesArtandInk]

Thanks for the thorough video :) Have you ever tried Copacetic Cosmetics or Electrum Cosmetics?

[@badtothebrow]

Yes I have tried those brands at some point, not their holos though

[@CharlotteV3D]

I am super excited to see more holo-shadows. Personally I like them to be flakes throughout a beautiful shifty shadow, I find that it creates some extra dimension. So the Bella Beauty Bar or Ensley Reign would be more my jam. I can think more easily into incorporating them in looks as well. That being said, I don't know how they applied, and since the small ''fiasco'' of Oden's Eye holo, I have been really on the fence about it. Are they tricky to apply? Or do they apply like any super textured/sparkly indie eyeshadow?

[@xDyxe]

Your nails are mesmerizing!! Can I ask what it is? I'm so distracted haha

[@badtothebrow]

They’re from olive&june I got them at Walmart

[@bernadettemaskey971]

Does glam shop still sell the holos? I really want to get the bajer shade!

[@badtothebrow]

They only have the gold holo available

[@skateata1]

The queen of chrome eye shadows. ❤

[@badtothebrow]

❤️❤️

[@sarlizglam8015]

Electrum cosmetics has some great holos too. Super shifty, holo throughout and easy to use. I absolutely love them! I’m not a big holo fan either

[@shasha9941]

Omg yes. Been so into holographic glitters although i know now its not the best for eyes and environment... hope this will be a trend in eyeshadow for a while! Or maybe I'm late to indie holographic game.... ❤❤❤much love to you!

[@badtothebrow]

These aren’t glitters!

[@ChernikaNata]

Boojee from the Harvest moon is also a hocographic :)

[@RainyJae_]

I can’t find the holos on glamshop do they not sell them anymore?

[@badtothebrow]

They dont sell them anymore unfortunately😩

[@RainyJae_]

@@badtothebrow oh no how sad, any recs for brands that are still selling them?

[@TheresaLx]

What was the shade of the glamshop one? Fire holo? X

[@badtothebrow]

Red holo, they don’t sell it anymore

[@mariasirbu7279]

Does glam shop still do their holo? I cant seem to find them on their site

[@badtothebrow]

Last time i checked they only had one shade on their website!

[@chantalmeijer8491]

Funny to see that glamshop has the most holo and is also the cheapest

[@badtothebrow]

They’re not multichrome holos, they’re just holo
