Gosh, it's really starting to feel like the holiday season now! Decorations are up everywhere and with Thanksgiving being this week, it means I can officially break out the holiday music without anyone giving me weird looks lol. I love pretty much everything about this time of the year, though my favorite is definitely getting time off from work... can't wait! My least favorite is probably how crazy it gets at the mall, with no place to park, long lines at checkout, and just general madness. What are your favorite/least favorite things about this time of year?
Today, I've got another festive shade from the China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze Collection to share with you. Elfin' Around is a warm rusty red with hints of coral and pink in a shimmery foil metallic finish.
Oh my word, look how glowy this polish is! I just love warm reds like this, as they tend to look better on my skintone than cooler reds do. The formula and application is total perfection. It's smooth and even, without any streaking or clumping. And you need just one coat for total opaque coverage! This is definitely one of my favs from the collection, and probably my favorite red from this holiday season's offerings. :)
You can find Elfin' Around at your local nail salons and at beauty stores such as Ulta and Sally Beauty for a retail price of $7.50 for 0.5 fl oz.

Wow, that looks really great - you're right, that's just your kind of red! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I really think so too! :D
DeleteOh snap! This is just gorgeous, dear!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm really glad you think so! :D
DeleteIt looks really good on you. The name is cute too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you approve! :)
DeleteThis looks beautiful on you! It reminds me of Zoya Tinsley without all the gold. My favorite part of the holiday season: tradtions (old and new) and the food. My least favorite part: modern-day singers massacring classic Christmas carols by seeing just how many superfluous notes they can stick in "Silent Night. " :D
ReplyDeleteHoliday food ftw! And yes, I like my carols to be traditional too. That way I can sing along. It shouldn't become an exercise in vocal abilities lol. :D
DeleteOmg, it's gorgeous <3
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm really glad you think so! :D
DeleteThis polish looks just wonderfull on your Nails! :)

DeleteIf I saw this bottle in a store, I wouldn't but it but now I've seen your swatch I want it, it's so lovely!
ReplyDeleteI didn't think it looked that special in the bottle either, but it really came alive on the nails. I'm glad you like it! :D
DeleteElfin 'round looks stunning on you!!! I don't think I saw and swatches that look this tempting!!! For me it is the same like for you, love the time of the year, loath the shopping madness ;-) Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones xxx

ReplyDeletei wonder how close it is to Dior Diablotine...?
I'm glad you like this! :) I don't have Diablotine, so I can't make a comparison unfortunately.
Deletenot only is the color gorgeous, but I love the name :)
ReplyDeleteHehe the name is definitely cute! :D
DeleteThis looks so pretty, almost velvety! I'm trying to enjoy this time of the year more. I usually get stressed out about buying gifts but this year I took the bull by the horns and got all my shopping done early...online. I can't stand the madness at the stores either....I would never do Black Friday shopping. Not worth it to me. Have a great Thanksgiving and awesome vacation in December!
ReplyDeleteThanks Essie! We had a lovely Thanksgiving with friends. I did all my black friday shopping online this year, and was able to get everything I wanted without any madness. Yay for getting your shopping done early! Hope you and the family had a wonderful holiday too. <3
DeleteThis one's one of my favorites from this collection! It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I really love this one too! :D
DeleteThis looks like an unusual and unique mix of autumnal and summery colours! It does look quite 'glowy' on your nails :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm really glad you think so! :)
DeleteThat's really pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think so too! :)
DeleteIt's awesome that you only need one coat! I love this shade :) And I hope you've enjoyed your time off from work!
ReplyDeleteThanks, the last few days have been really wonderful and relaxing. I'm really glad you like this one... one-coaters are always awesome! :)
DeleteWhat a warm, rich shade. Looks great with your skin tone, too. I haven't picked up anything from this collection yet but I really need to do so soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I really love the richness of this shade too! It's so far turning out to be a great collection. :)
DeleteI'm surprise that this is sooo calling my name. :) beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm really glad to hear you're a fan of this! :)
DeleteOoohhh this one's the perfect cross between orange and red! I like it! And I know how you feel about malls these days. There are just soooo many people (and cars). lol.
ReplyDelete(^^,)
Lol... some of the cars, they block the entire pathway or drive so slowly looking for a non-existent spot. Yikes! I'm glad you like this... it's one of my favs from the collection. :)
