Over 6 years ago, I was browsing YouTube for new videos to help pass the time. I discovered a video about “polish mountain.” This video has millions of views and the idea of the video was a mountain of layers of nail polish on this person’s hand. It was this video that hooked me on Simply Nailogical aka Cristine.
Who Are They?
Cristine is a Canadian YouTuber, crime statistics analyst and business owner. Their channel is mainly about nail art, nail polish, make up and experiments. She also has multiple YouTube channels including a vlog and podcast channels. When I discovered Cristine, I thought she was funny, creative, and wholesome. She seemed very genuine and sincere in her videos and nothing felt scripted. In 2019, she created her own nail polish business called Holo Taco and I was obsessed from the first launch.
What Do I Think of Holo Taco?
In the past, I’ve enjoyed painting my nails but never cared to get them professionally done or ensured the polish was anything fancy. When Holo Taco initially launched, I loved the variety that came in the limited edition box. It featured three top coats with different holo sparkles, which seemed very on brand for Simply Nailogical (who was always into holo and top coats). It was amazing to see Cristine create something she had so much passion for. The brand has created over 50 colours since and still going. There’s so much variety and the colours are gorgeous. I’ve bought multiple products since that initial launch.
Would I Have Bought Holo Taco if It Weren’t for Simply Nailogical?
When I think about it, I probably would not have bought Holo Taco products if they weren’t Cristine’s product line or if I didn’t know they were made by her. I think it’s my history with Simply Nailogical and my love for the channel that gave me the urge to make these purchases. I’ve been watching her content for years, and there have been days where I’m looking forward to the newest video to release. Knowing my purchase supports Cristine and her passion also makes me confident in my purchases as well. I definitely bought Holo Taco because of the connection to Simply Nailogical.
Have you ever bought a product created by a YouTuber or influencer? If not, have you ever bought a product they endorsed? I’d love to hear your experiences!
