I visited T.J. Maxx in January 2022 and saw this nail polish kit.
It's Color Club 7 Pc Pinkies Up Kit. The kit was on the website when I first reviewed a polish from this kit. It's not there anymore. I am not too sure why. Anyways, I had to grab this kit. The price is less than one nail polish. That is amazing! I already reviewed Color Club in Can You Dig It? (sixth from the left), Color Club in Hashtag Sponsored (second from the left), Color Club in Influencer (first from the left), Color Club in Olive Paris (fourth from the left), Color Club in Don't Steal My Thunder (fifth from the left), and Color Club in Bouquet of the Day (seventh from the left). For this post, I will review the polish third from the left.
This is Color Club in Holy Chic! Since I did a thorough review of Color Club in Chalk It Up, I will base this on that.
Here's a closer look at the color. It's brighter on the nails than the packaging.
Here's a closer look at the brush. Compared to OPI, the brush is thinner and the length is shorter. The width is on the thin side.
I applied Essie Strong Start Base Coat, two coats of Color Club in Holy Chic!, and topped all the nails with Orly In A Snap Quick-Dry Topcoat.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the brush is on the thin side. It's not my type of brush but it's doable for the consistency. The tip is also thin and cut straight. It made it hard to paint around the cuticles and sides. If you are an experienced painter, it should be easy. Since I have no patience when it comes to painting, I am not that good. Secondly, the packaging is simple and nice. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick glass. The top is also sturdy. You can feel a tight seal when you open and close the top. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's also easy to hold with one hand. Third, the consistency is creamy and in-between medium to thick. It's not too thick that it's hard to work with. It's also not too thin that it runs while painting. It's a good consistency and you can take your time with painting. It will not get clumpy with usage. From my experience, pastel colors tend to be on the thicker side than most polishes. I am not too sure why but this is the same case. Because it's thicker than I am used to, I tend to work faster. This is just me. With that said, it's easy to use It goes on smoothly, and there are no streaking and bubbles. Fourth, it's a pretty periwinkle color but towards the purple more so than blue. It's a great spring and summer color. I am glad I got this color. It matches my skin tone well. Would I say the color is unique? Yes and no. No, in the sense, I have seen this color in other brands. It's more on the bluer side than purple. Yes, in the sense, it's hard to find an exact color in other brands. Pigmentation-wise it's up there. Two coats were good enough for my skin tone. Lastly, I saw chipping on the tips on the fifth day. Other than chipping, I did not see shrinkage whatsoever. I am glad I got this polish. It's so pretty and I got compliments!

Would repurchase: Yes.
