China Glaze Loves You Snow Much

It's a party for your fingertips. China Glaze's holiday collection this year is Loves You Snow Much. It's 4 glitter flecked polishes to sparkle and bling this Christmas.

I am in love with Emerald Sparkle but I also love 5 Golden Rings almost as much.

These polishes go on sheer and I needed 3 coats to get the coverage I wanted. Glitters are normally sheer based, so you just work with it.

The two remaining shades are Tinsel- a light silver , reminiscent of icicles on a tree, and Ruby Pumps- the super pretty red. All are nice and will get you feeling festive in no time.

You can find China Glaze at Sally Beauty, Ulta and more.
