OPI Show It And Glow It!

OPI Show It And Glow It!


OPI Show It And Glow It! is part of OPI's Holiday Burlesque 2010 Collection. This polish is a fusia, purple glitter with micro glitters. It has silver, blue, green,yellow, and I think a bit of gold. It is a little hard to see some of the glitters sometimes but those are the main glitter colors in this polish. I only needed 2 coats for an even finish, which is great for a polish packed with glitter! Anyways I know this is not a typical Christmas nail polish color but it does remind me of Christmas ornaments! I think it's a pretty polish that stands out and is great for the holidays.

China Glaze - Mistletoe Kisses

Mistletoe Kisses



This polish is from China Glaze's 2010 Holiday Collection. I love this polish because you get an even finish with only two coats; I also love the fact that it is green with a bit of silver undertones, which makes it perfect for the holiday season.

Revlon Silver Screen & Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty

Silver Winter Wonderland Nails


Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty is a clear base polish packed with fine silver glitter. I used about 3 coats of this polish. I only added it to my ring finger to give it some sparkle. What I like about this polish is that it distributes the glitter evenly. This polish retails for $1.99.


Revlon Silver Screen is literally liquid metal on your nails and I love it! It's a metallic polish with a slight blue tint and fine shimmer. It does leave brush strokes so you have to be careful when applying it. I used 3 coats to get an even finish.

OPI - Red Shatter

Red Shatter



I applied Red Shatter overcoat over Milani Gold Glitz (scroll down for review). I chose to put red over gold because I think red and gold are perfect together and they are both Christmas colors. When using a texture overcoat it is best to apply top coat over your base polish, especially if you are putting it over a glitter polish otherwise the overcoat won't "shatter". The one disappointing thing about Red Shatter is that you cannot wear it over a dark polish. If you try applying it over a dark color, the polish loses it's red and looks more like a very dark burgundy and blends with the dark polish so you can barely see it. I found this very disappointing because I really wanted to try this color over black. However, Red Shatter is a very rich and vibrant red and that's what I love most about it.

Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby and OPI Rising Star

Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby and OPI Rising Star







Ruby Ruby by Sinful Colors Professional is a creme, true red polish! I love this polish because it is very opaque and is NOT streaky at all! Also it is only $1.99. To make this polish stand out a bit I added OPI Rising Star on my ring finger for a more festive and different look :)

(I already reviewed OPI Rising Star on our Countdown to Christmas a couple of days ago, so for futher review on that polish check down below =D )

Milani - Gold Glitz

Gold Glitz


This polish is from the Milani One Coat Glitter line. I applied only one coat of Gold Glitz was amazed with the results because it really is all you need. It leaves a nice even finish and isn't streaky, it covers every part of the nail. The polish has copper and cool-toned gold glitter, which is beautiful. I would definitely recommend this polish and all the other polishes in the one coat glitter line. I will review the other polishes from this line in the future. Also, they retail for $3.99

OPI Extra-va-vaganza!

OPI Extra-va-vaganza!


OPI Extra-va-vaganza! is part of OPI's Holiday Burlesque Collection 2010. This polish is a copper, orange color. Now the glitter is what makes this polish stand out besides the name. It has blue green glitter, gold glitter, silver glitter, and in the sunlight it you can see hints of pink glitter but it may just be the glimmer or reflection in the light. Application is even, about 3 coats is what you will need. The glitter is also evenly distributed which is great.
