Finally getting around to doing this haul! Super excited, as I ordered three micellaneous China Glaze polishes a few weeks ago, and then kind of spontaneously ordered 4 of the sets from the new China Glaze
Let It Snow Christmas collection.
There were a few particulates I wanted, but in the end, it was such an amazing deal, I could not pass it up! In total I spent about $85, including shipping, postage, EVERYTHING for ALL these polishes. It works out to be about $6 per polish, I think, which is a HUGE bargain, considering how difficult it is to purchase within Australia. I would normally pay at least $10 to $12 for a China Glaze polish. So, like I said, HUGE bargain!

| China Glaze Let It Snow Christmas Collection |
This is the first Christmas that I have actually cared about nail polishes, and actually understood the concept of the
Christmas Collection. Unfortunately, again, in Australia, Christmas is celebrated during the summer months, so these
nail polishes aren't exactly suited for the summer. Nonetheless, they are gorgeous colours! The greens and reds are definitely Christmas in a bottle!

This first one is a typical deep red. Its a lovely colour but is very similar to Sportsgirl's Tomato nail polish. The second is a glitter polish with a clear base, and a mix of small-ish green and red glitter. I also put it over some black nail polish to see what effect that would give:

I definitely prefer the glitter polish over a base like this one, it really brings out the colours of the glitter.

This set comes with three polishes and a pewter cork bottle stopper. Its cute, but I have no use for it =/

This one comes with Glittering Garland, a deep Christmas-y tree green with green glitters to match. Its a dark colour and definitely better for the wintertime. The second is a metallic silver. I have never been a fan of metallic polishes, but this one definitely changed my mind. Its a pure, clean silver metallic polish and I can't wait to do accent nails with this polish! So gorgeous! The last one in this collection is Champagne Bubbles, a metallic gold, which again is not something I typically like, but find this one to be gorgeous! And the bottle does not do the colour justice, but when swatched, it also has tiny silver glitters spread throughout it.
Part 2 coming soon!
