China Glaze ~ FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!


China Glaze ~ FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!
Colour shifting shimmer that shifts between purple and gold and marsala

This is the second last polish in the Sesame Street 2019 Holiday Collection. It's a collection of 12 polishes. There will be links to each polish by the end of each of the posts.

Today I'm showing you "FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!", a really special shimmer. It's special because it's showing so many colours and that makes it super hard to describe.

" FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!" can be used as an effect polish but it also works on its own. I used two easy coats for full coverage and the drying time is really good.

I added some loose glitter by the base of each nail.

I topcoated it all and here's the final result:

China Glaze ~ FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!

Oh yes, glitter on shimmer, I love it!

And here's " FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!"; two coats on its own and no topcoat yet. I probably would have added a third coat if I should have worn this on its own.

China Glaze ~ Since 1969


China Glaze ~ Since 1969
A black/silver glitter

This is the third last polish in the Sesame Street 2019 Holiday Collection. It's a collection of 12 polishes. There will be links to each polish by the end of each of the posts.

Today I'm showing you "Since 1969", a black and silver glitter.

"Since 1969" is another glittery polish that works on its own. I used two easy coats for full coverage and the drying time is really good.

The stamp is from Moyou London's stamping plate "Back to the 60's-04". I stamped with a neon pink stamping polish from Colour Alike called "Fuchsia Flash". The blue dots is made with Color by Llarowe's stamping polish "Turq'd".

I topcoated it all and here's the final result:

China Glaze ~ T Is For Tinsel
A silvery fine glitter with a scattered blue shimmer

There aren't many polishes left in the Sesame Street 2019 Holiday Collection. It's a collection of 12 polishes. There will be links to each polish by the end of each of the posts.

Today I'm showing you "T Is For Tinsel", a silver glitter with blue shimmer shattered throughout.

"T Is For Tinsel" works on its own. I used two easy coats for full coverage and the drying time is good.

The cats are stickers and the black glitter is Sally Hansen's "Ruffle" from the Luxe Lace collection of pretty glitters.

I topcoated it all and here's the final result:

China Glaze ~ #ThisIsMyStreet


China Glaze ~ #ThisIsMyStreet
A topper filled with holographic glitters    

It won't be long before I've worked my way through the entire Sesame Street 2019 Holiday Collection. It's a collection of 12 polishes. There will be links to each polish by the end of each of the posts.

Today I'm showing you "#thisismystreet", a clear base with holographic microglitter.

I used a beautiful dark red shimmer as my base, China Glaze's "Long Kiss", which is absolutely gorgeous! I applied a thin layer of "#thisismystreet" over the red.

The stamp is from the stamping plate "Nicole Diary-076". I stamped with a plain white stamping polish from El Corazón.

I topcoated it all and here's the final result:

China Glaze: #ThisIsMyStreet over red

There's definitely a lot going on here.
