Quick Look: Half of the China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze Collection

China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze Collection Quick Look Here’s a sneak peek at what I plan to do full in-depth review on in future posts!

These are 6 of the 12 shades from the China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze Collection, which I’m pretty excited about. (They were generously provided to me by China Glaze.)

Aside from fall and Hallowe’en collections (they’re my favourites), Christmas ones come in at a close second!

If you’ve follow me on Instagram, you’ll know that I already wore China Glaze So Blue Without You. I’ll probably review that one first from the bunch since I’ve already taken photos of my manicure.

Is there another shade that you’d like me to review before the others? Let me know, and I’ll put it near the top of my list! 🙂

Quick Look: Nicole by OPI Some Hearts Swatches

Nicole by OPI Some Hearts Swatches Hope that yesterday you had a great Hallowe’en!

Today, I have a sneak peek at Nicole by OPI Some Hearts, which is part of the amazing Carrie Underwood Collection that’s coming out in January 2014.

Remember, check back in January because I’ll be posting full reviews with tons of photos on all the manicures I’ve worn from this collection. Think of this post as something to whet your appetite. 😉

I ended up liking this shade a lot more than I thought when I first looked at the bottle.

There’s something fresh about this, and even though it’s set for a winter release, I can see how you could wear this well into the spring and summer! (Although you can wear whatever colour you want any time of year, in my book! Nail polish is all about putting a smile on your face, after all.)

P.S. Remember, my worldwide giveaway for the OPI Pure 18K White Gold & Silver Top Coat signed by Suzi of OPI is still open. Ends November 2 at 12:00 am Eastern!

Guess what Hallowe’en nail art I did. (Hopefully I’ll be able to show you tomorrow!)

Here Are 3 Hints

1. I used the polishes in the OPI Rock Goddess Mini Lacquer Set sent to me by PR.

(Check out the official press release for it here.)
