China Glaze ~ Define Good and December to Remember
My two picks from China
Glaze’s Twinkle collection from Holidays 2014
Today I’m going to show you the two polishes I picked from China Glaze’s
Twinkle collection. They came out with 12 polishes, but sometimes a girl just
has to pick what she really wants, right?
So, first one up is Define Good.
That’s a sexy red if there ever was one. It’s a deep, shimmery and very vampy
cranberry red. The formula is great, and the polish applies easily. It’s almost
a one coater but I did two. It didn’t make much of a difference though, nothing
I could see with bare eyes anyway.
Take a look at how beautiful two coats and no top coats look:
The depth is amazing – I love it!
I added a bit of holo glitter just because I like that too. I used Out
the Door’s “Silver” – a silver micro glitter holo topcoat. Here’s what that
looks like:
Here’s a flash picture of the same thing. I love how this turned out!
Define Good is a winner in my book for sure. It’s gorgeous!
My second pick was December to
Remember. It’s a medium icy blue with pink shimmer. The formula is equally
good and I also used two coats of this to achieve full opacity. Drying time is
good, no worries. It wasn’t easy to capture the pink shimmer, so my pictures
don’t really do the product justice, but I did my best.
Here’s two coats and no topcoat:
It’s beautiful, I don’t think I have anything like it in my collection!
I added glitter to December to Remember. I chose a suitable glitter from
Darling Diva called “Flocons de Neige Sous L’aurore” – that basically means “Snowflakes
In Aurora”. It’s a clear base packed with pink shimmer, white stars, glitters
and snowflakes, and pink and blue circles and hexes.
You know the drill: One dip in the bottle per nail. I had to wipe some
of the glitters off the brush because it was seriously loaded when I pulled it
out of the bottle! Wow!
Here’s one coat of the Darling Diva glitter and one layer of topcoat
over it:
These two polishes were practically made for each other!
December to Remember is a winner too – I don’t regret buying it at all!
Number of coats: 2/2

DeleteDefine Good is now on my wishlist *opening Ebay - searching* - there now, in the basket with 3 other CG's - your fault, remember that :D
ReplyDeleteHahaha, don't worry, I take full responsibility for that one. I know you're going to love it :)
DeleteThanks, I appreciate that - and I am sure I will ;)
DeleteI like both colours. Haven't bought a china glaze for ages :)
ReplyDeleteIt's not the brand I buy the most from either, but I like the few I buy :)
DeleteSuch beauties, both of them! In no need of a topcoat, but look great with them!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad you like them :)
DeleteDefine Good is such a beautiful and feminine color, I absolutely love it. Of course all the other polishes are fantastic too, but the first one is a blast for me :))
ReplyDeleteIt's Define Good that rings my bell the most too. It's gorgeous!
DeleteWow! The first polish is so deep and dramatic, and second is very pretty and winter-y)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like them :)
DeleteI didn't buy any from that collection but seeing Define Good make me regret that.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that it's still for sale on evilBay then :D
DeleteBoth are lovely. But I prefer December To Remember. It's so cute with the top coat!
ReplyDeleteThat topper was perfect for the blue :)
DeleteBoth polishes are lovely but my definition of good is definitely define good!!
ReplyDeleteHaha, mine too! :D
DeleteThese are both stunning :-D These were my two picks as well (before I got to the sales and bought more). My husband kind talking me into getting Define Good though - it's amazing. I've still to try DtoR though! :-)
