Today, I've got a fun glitter from the China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze Collection to share with you. Your Present Required is a colorful mix of small to medium hex glitters in the colors blue, purple, peach, white, and gold all in a sheer base.
I really like the combination of colors in this glitters. It's a little unusual, but they look really great together. The application is a little odd. It's hard to get the glitters to stay in place on the nails as you stroke from cuticle to free edge. They kind of clump together and have a tendency to get dragged along with the brush. I ended up using short dabbling motions, which really helped in getting the glitters to stay in place. I did one coat over Mingle With Kringle, and I just love the way they look together. The gold base really sets off the colors in this glitter. :)
You can find Your Present Required 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.

this reminds me of hard candy party confetti
ReplyDeleteI don't have Party Confetti, but it seems like a really fun glitter too. :)
DeleteIs there something wrong with my eyes or do the bottles say You instead of Your??? lol I keep seeing that on every post about this collection and it is bothering the HECK outta me!!! But this is definitely one of my favorite colors in the collection since I love glitter!
ReplyDeleteHehe good catch! I think they had a misprint. The official press release said "your", which makes more sense than "you". :) Yay I'm really glad you like this!
DeleteLove it. I think it would look really good as a top coat on a dark blue or black base too :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! The dark base would really make the glitters pop. :)
DeleteLOL...that bottle does say "You"!! This is really pretty...that peach glitter is so unexpected, but it's so different and nice! It looks great over the gold too. <3
ReplyDeleteHehe good eye! I'm surprised anyone noticed that. I'm guessing they had a misprint. It says "your" on the official press release, which makes more sense. :) Thanks, I'm really glad you like this. I'm an especially big fan of the peach glitters too. :)
DeleteI am dreaming of this polish from the moment I saw it!
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect!

DeleteOoh I saw this the other day and fell in love with the color combo in these glitters. Looks great over the gold.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you like it! I thought it looks especially great over gold too. :)
DeleteCute combo. Very festive.
ReplyDeleteIt's very pretty, but for me to buy it the glitters should have been smaller :)
ReplyDeleteAh, the glitters are too big for you? I'm glad you still think it's pretty though. :)
Deletereally like the combo of glitter. It's very unique!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think so too! :)
DeleteUnusual, but pretty! Makes me think of New Year's parties.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely party on the nails. I'm glad you like it! :)
DeleteThis is a pretty strange mix! The colours just seem a little incongruent. But it's festive and super glittery at least :p I like the gold glitter that seems to make up the majority of the base.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely an unusual combination of glitters, which is why I think I like it so much. :)
DeleteI love this glitter! It is so fun and pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I really like this glitter too! :)
Deleteheheheh also swached this one but just added one thin coat with no problems. Love it over yellow.
ReplyDeleteYay glad you love this one too! :D
DeleteWow! Soooo cool! What a neat combo. You are lucky to be seeing the sun. I can't remember what that looks like :(
ReplyDeleteI really like this glitter too... the combination of colors in here is really interesting. :) It's really unusual for it to be so sunny here this time of the year. But it looks like that trend is ending starting tonight lol. Bummer about the lack of sun where you are... maybe my sun is moving over to your neck of the woods. <3
DeleteOh my!! This is sooooooo pretty! I love glitters! I think you did a wonderful job applying them. I always have a hard time dabbing them on my nails. lol.
ReplyDelete(^^,)
Hehe thanks... the dabbing took a little while longer to apply, but it wasn't difficult and the end result is pretty good. :)
DeleteHehe, first off, I seriously love this polish's name! It would make it a perfect gift to give a polish-holic! :) secondly, I love the glitter mixes! Plus they kinda reminds me of winter evening/Christmas evenings! Totally bought this one during the promotion! :D *happy owner* XD
ReplyDeleteHehe I'm so glad you love this! I'm a huge fan of the mix of glitters in here too. It's unique and totally fun. I'm glad you got it. :)
