China Glaze Twinkle - Holiday 2014

*Press Sample*

Hey y'all!  Yeah, you read that title correctly.  I'm FINALLY showing the holiday collection.  I honestly have no excuse as to why it took this long.  I've had these for a while....and the swatches have been done since before Christmas.  So without babbling, lets get to it.

As usual, I used a coat of Seche Vite over all of these.

Tip Your Hat - 2 coats - A red cream, almost a brick ruby red.

Out Like A Light - 2 coats - Smokey lead gray cream with a subtle shimmer.  This could easily be a 1 coater.

Define Good...- 2 coats - Berry metallic shimmer.

I'd Melt For You - 2 coats - Very shimmery metallic silver chrome.

December To Remember - 2 coats - Denim blue, almost metallic, with a slight silver & purple shimmer.

No Peeking! - 2 coats - Smokey eggplant purple metallic with a pink & blurple shimmer.  

Pine-ing For Glitter - 2 coats - Forest green glitter in a clear base.  The glitters are super tiny and this isn't densely packed, so it's best when layered.  Though for 2 coats it's pretty opaque.

Feeling Twinkly - 3 coats - Teeny tiny blue glitters in a clear base.  This also would be best when layered.

Dancing & Prancing - 3 coats - Multi-colored glitter.  From what I can see, there are copper, pink, blue, green, and silver glitters.

De-Light - 3 coats - Gold & holographic bar glitters in a clear base.

Meet Me Under The Stars - 2 coats - China Glaze states this is holo glitter in a black base, but I found it to be more of a sheer charcoal base with black & silver glitters.  Either way, it does look appropriately named.  Like a galaxy.  

Chillin' With My Snow-Mies - 1 coat - Layered over Meet Me Under The Stars.  Various sized matte white hex glitters in a clear base.  

While I showed the glitters alone, except for Chillin With My Snow-Mies, I think they would look better layered over a solid base or even used in a glitter gradient.  I kinda expected the glitters to be chunky and annoying....they so weren't. 

I do like the shades in this collection, but it's not my fav holiday collection from China Glaze.  I'm still hoping for a red and/or green version of Angel Wings or Glistening Snow(which I still need to get).  Maybe even a blue one too.  Heck, just go ahead and do all the shades like those two.  

Make this holiday one to remember with the China Glaze® Twinkle collection, available in November 2014 at fine beauty supply stores and salons nationwide including Sally Beauty and Ulta (individual shades MSRP $7.50).
