Drugstore holos! Below you’ll find affordable, stunning prismatic nails from local drugstore brands.
Holographic nail polishes are a unique type of glitter nail polish that includes certain pigments that split and fragment light, creating multi-colored prism effects that respond to your environment.
They change color as the light hits them, making them very interactive and eye-catching.
The word Holographic itself is related to the word Hologram and according to Live Science, a Hologram is a photographic technique that records the light scattered from an object, and then presents it in a way that appears three-dimensional.
Holographic nail polishes are definitely multi-dimensional, and appear in different colors in different lighting situations and angles.
Holographic nail polish, sometimes shortened to “holo,” is prismatic - they create rainbows as they reflect light, and best of all, you can find them at your corner pharmacy.
Revlon, China Glaze and Sally Hansen are common drugstore brands that offer holographic nail polish.
So below are 9 holographic nail polishes you can find at the drugstore:
