Great video, thank you! I love how you repeat the polish names a few times. So many times I'm watching and the person says the names so fast and doesn't repeat that I have to keep rewinding to catch the names, so thank you! Iovr most of this collection, except the reds, and I'm so sad about that last polish, I really wanted to love it. Now I know my must haves from this collection.
Thanks for doing the swatches.. Now I know which couple I might pick up.. I liked how they had the full coverage micro glitter the last couple years even if they did chip easily
I completely agree with you about the red polish, it's so been there done that (which is why I was so disappointed with the OPI holiday collection...). I really love December to Remember, Pine-ing for Glitter, and even though I'm not a huge fan of bar glitter, I really like De-Light.
aww poor Cricket! I felt so bad for my female cat before I was able to get her fixed; when you first started swatching, I didn't think I'd be too impressed with the collection, but their where quite a few I liled. Dec to remember is gorgeous! I liked most of the glitters, other then the last, sparse one. Thanks for taking the time to do these. I love live swatches!
Define Good kind of reminds me of China Glaze's Thunderbird from their Retro Diva collection. Really awesome review! I missed out on Concrete Catwalk so I will pick up Out Like A Light.
Great video Jess! I think I only need The blue duochromey one and maybe the gold. *shrug* Not blown away by this collection but I guess not every one can be a winner.
Great video, thanks for swatching all the colors. Do you know when these new polishes will be released ? I have already been looking for them all over but could not (yet) find them anywhere, not even on the CG website.
After seeing someone else swatch these the other day, I went on amazon and picked up There's Snowone Like You instead for the snow effect sort of thing. Some of the others are going on my wish list though!!
I am very underwhelmed with this collection and sooo happy. I have been on a role. I own a dupe for every one of these and they are nothing unique at all. My wallet thanks you soo much for this review. Thank you!
:/ I really thought I would be able to use the I'd melt into you for nail stamping but after watching your video it dosen't look like because I wouldn't be able to do the topcoat!! Do you have any suggestions i want a gold one and silver one opaques for nail stamping, thx for the video
Does it bug you when the nail polish doesn't cover your whole nail? Like on the sides where the polish misses. I feel like I always end up with nail polish all over my finger because I get a little OCD about the polish having to cover every single part of my nail xD
Kaya It used to! but I like it better than flooding my cuticle now. I paint really far from the edges when I do videos like this because it makes it easier to remove and move on to the next color right away :)
I think like I Snow You Love Me, that last polish will be overlooked because of the horrible base to glitter ratio, but it would probably be great for placement! I can see myself wanting a few of these, there are some pretty colours (:
Aw, I loved Chillin' With My Snow-mies. I thought it was supposed to be sparse? To look like snow fall. At least that's just me. I did manage to get a lot on my nails after three oats and a lot of fishing, but I like the effect. I can see how it's not very practical, however. Still love this collection!
maybe when you are swatching finer glitters and you aren't sure if they would do better on the bare nail or on top of a base color you could do a couple nails with a base color and a couple bare nails. I would like to see that! This is a nice collection but a lot of things i've seen before. There's a couple I might pick up though! TFS!
I don't think top coat ruins Push and Shove at all... that's what OPI says but I don't think it's the case when you actually try it. Nice swatches though. I'll definitely be getting a couple of these polishes.
Oh that's odd, when I apply top coat it makes the polish dull for a second until it dries and then it's perfectly fine. Anyways, maybe I should check out the silver China Glaze since I wouldn't need the special base coat :)
Maybe that's the case! I'm not sure. I don't remember what I usually use on top of it but it's probably OPI's own top coat as that's my favorite top coat. If I don't put top coat on it it chips instantly anyways because of the weird finish so even if it became dull I'd probably still do it.
emilyautzen I know...I'm so torn with it because my topcoat dulls it, but it doesn't last for crap without. It's such a love-hate relationship with it...lol
Hey! Do u do the swatches one after another? If so thats dedication! Lol it would drive me insane to paint my nails so perfectly then to have to take it off! Lol thats for this video need to go check it out :)
Hmm usually the China Glaze holiday collections are the best ones because they have beautiful glitters and I end up buying all of them... lol This year I'm really underwhelmed. The only one that is unique and pretty enough to buy is the rainbow glitter at the end
Chillin' with my snowies is such a disappointing glitter polish! too bad because it looks very pretty in the bottle. I think I am only getting December to Remember
If anyone is looking for a better version of the last one, OPI did a beautiful one this year it's called OPI 'snow globetrotter' its stunning here: www.pinterest.com/pin/417568196675113805/
It seems that the ones behind creating these collections (China Glaze or OPI) are getting lazy or their imagination is sleeping! The same boring colors, especially with reds (doesn't matter if their are dark or light, metallic or cream) it seems like a constant and continuous déjà vu of "new" colors"
I am very underwhelmed with this collection and sooo happy. I have been on a role. I own a dupe for every one of these and they are nothing unique at all. My wallet thanks you soo much for this review. Thank you!
I really like how you polish more than one nail. Others just do one and expect to get a true feel for it. So nice swatches these colors are beautiful.
Asheir F. Thank you!
***** Your welcome!
Great video, thank you! I love how you repeat the polish names a few times. So many times I'm watching and the person says the names so fast and doesn't repeat that I have to keep rewinding to catch the names, so thank you! Iovr most of this collection, except the reds, and I'm so sad about that last polish, I really wanted to love it. Now I know my must haves from this collection.
Karen G That's exactly why I repeat them! I wasn't too impressed with this collection either!
Such cute names, especially Chilling With My Snowmies. Love it. Beautiful polishes
Awesome video! Love your reviews on the different polishes. I hope you do this with more collections in the future!
I love these swatch and review videos!! This collection looked a lot better than what I thought from seeing the original promo photos xx
Nailpolish BabyyNinety I just wish that white glitter would have had more glitter!
I LOVE that you do swatches of all the colors! Now I have an idea of what the polishes look like. (:
Ana V Thanks!
I ❤️ ⌚️ ing these older holidays videos!!
Thanks for doing the swatches.. Now I know which couple I might pick up.. I liked how they had the full coverage micro glitter the last couple years even if they did chip easily
Melissa S I was really hoping for more of those microglitters this year!
Glad to know that most of our thoughts were the same lol. Totally didn't realize that Out Like a Light had a dupe within China Glaze itself though!
Total Polish Junkie I think the reds both do too, but I didn't think of them until I was editing!
love China glaze collections! Thanks for doing these, hope u continue.
Jayme Wukmir Thanks!
I completely agree with you about the red polish, it's so been there done that (which is why I was so disappointed with the OPI holiday collection...).
I really love December to Remember, Pine-ing for Glitter, and even though I'm not a huge fan of bar glitter, I really like De-Light.
Vakarianify That OPI collection is ridiculous... so many reds.

104mona She's all fixed and feeling much better now! Thank you!
JessFace90: I love your videos keep up the good work, I watch your videos every single day
+MizzShorty4u Thank you!
I like December to Remember and Meet me Under the Stars... Might have to check those out.
NaturallyCurly2 December to Remember is gorgeous!
My fav is Chillin' With my Snowmies - love, love, love it.
Define Good kind of reminds me of China Glaze's Thunderbird from their Retro Diva collection. Really awesome review! I missed out on Concrete Catwalk so I will pick up Out Like A Light.
The Painted Nail I'm not familiar with that one, but judging from the other dupes, I believe it!
Great video Jess! I think I only need The blue duochromey one and maybe the gold. *shrug* Not blown away by this collection but I guess not every one can be a winner.
***** Thanks! I thought it was pretty lame too :/
Happily surprised with this collection! Great swatches... That last polish though.. Ughhh lol! X
Emma-Louise Garbett haha..my thoughts exactly! Thanks!
Great video, thanks for swatching all the colors. Do you know when these new polishes will be released ? I have already been looking for them all over but could not (yet) find them anywhere, not even on the CG website.
Tahitianpearl75 They should be out sometime this month or early next month!
Your video has helped me so much in choosing what I am going to get!
sophie lee Glad I could help, thanks for watching!
After seeing someone else swatch these the other day, I went on amazon and picked up There's Snowone Like You instead for the snow effect sort of thing. Some of the others are going on my wish list though!!
April Heise I hope you like it!
My Chillin w m snowmies base turned yellow. I will strain it and replace with a top coat.
I am very underwhelmed with this collection and sooo happy. I have been on a role. I own a dupe for every one of these and they are nothing unique at all. My wallet thanks you soo much for this review. Thank you!
Alexis Beyer haha, you're welcome!
I'm going to buying this soon and with the 2015 holiday collection
Formula X has a matte white glitter that's like Chillin with My Snowmies but isn't as sparse and I think it has bar glitter too. It's called Wham!
Thanks for the helpful review! Need to pick some of these up soon
Annemi8 I hope you like them!
December to remember reminds me of opis this colors making waves in the Hawaii. Collection
5hillfam
that struggle of getting these glitters off your nails, haha.
love your videos :)
Sheryl Pardeshi haha, thanks!
where did you get this nailpolish...lol i really want this bold lookin polish...
:/ I really thought I would be able to use the I'd melt into you for nail stamping but after watching your video it dosen't look like because I wouldn't be able to do the topcoat!! Do you have any suggestions i want a gold one and silver one opaques for nail stamping, thx for the video
I had to go get the silver I'd melt for you, It's an amazing stamping polish.
Great video
Nice swatching! It's a pretty collection and for the most part, it looks like the formulas on them were really good, but nothing too unique, huh?! ♥
Does it bug you when the nail polish doesn't cover your whole nail? Like on the sides where the polish misses. I feel like I always end up with nail polish all over my finger because I get a little OCD about the polish having to cover every single part of my nail xD
Kaya It used to! but I like it better than flooding my cuticle now.
I paint really far from the edges when I do videos like this because it makes it easier to remove and move on to the next color right away :)
I agree with you. The reds that they release every year are starting to look the same. Great video.
I loved this video I just felt like this year the colours aren`t that unique
I think like I Snow You Love Me, that last polish will be overlooked because of the horrible base to glitter ratio, but it would probably be great for placement! I can see myself wanting a few of these, there are some pretty colours (:
Katherine H I was kicking myself in editing for not mentioning placement for that one!
Haha that's okay! People will figure it out ;)
Aw, I loved Chillin' With My Snow-mies. I thought it was supposed to be sparse? To look like snow fall. At least that's just me. I did manage to get a lot on my nails after three oats and a lot of fishing, but I like the effect. I can see how it's not very practical, however. Still love this collection!

I would like to see that! This is a nice collection but a lot of things i've seen before. There's a couple I might pick up though! TFS!
***** Thanks! That's a much better idea than just guessing at it!
I don't think top coat ruins Push and Shove at all... that's what OPI says but I don't think it's the case when you actually try it. Nice swatches though. I'll definitely be getting a couple of these polishes.
Thanks! I actually based that statement off of what I experienced when actually trying it, not OPI's advice.
Oh that's odd, when I apply top coat it makes the polish dull for a second until it dries and then it's perfectly fine. Anyways, maybe I should check out the silver China Glaze since I wouldn't need the special base coat :)
Hmmm..that makes me think it must depend on what top coat you use!
Maybe that's the case! I'm not sure. I don't remember what I usually use on top of it but it's probably OPI's own top coat as that's my favorite top coat. If I don't put top coat on it it chips instantly anyways because of the weird finish so even if it became dull I'd probably still do it.
emilyautzen I know...I'm so torn with it because my topcoat dulls it, but it doesn't last for crap without. It's such a love-hate relationship with it...lol
I'd Melt For You is basically the same as China Glaze's Platinum Silver.
Xtrakoolness hmmm...I'm not familiar with that one, I'll have to go google it! :)
I liked chillin with my snowmies.. it's different!
Where can I buy China glaze? Is there a web site? Please help?
i would just use the sponge method for the Chillin with my Snowmies..that way u dont get a ton of base on your nail :)
LU ABUZAID I might have to try that, thought I feel its even too sparse for that...placement would work well with it though!
Hey! Do u do the swatches one after another? If so thats dedication! Lol it would drive me insane to paint my nails so perfectly then to have to take it off! Lol thats for this video need to go check it out :)
MsVampirate18 Yep! I do them all in a sitting :)
Hmm usually the China Glaze holiday collections are the best ones because they have beautiful glitters and I end up buying all of them... lol This year I'm really underwhelmed. The only one that is unique and pretty enough to buy is the rainbow glitter at the end
Awesome review Jess! I like December to remember but other than that i'm not impressed.
TheCookiesncheese Thanks! I'm pretty "meh" about the collection too.
Chillin' with my snowies is such a disappointing glitter polish! too bad because it looks very pretty in the bottle. I think I am only getting December to Remember
Adry Vg I was bummed about that one too...I had the highest hopes for it :(
Define good looks a lot like China Glaze Cranberry Splash.
i need that silver in my life
Selena Castro it's really nice!
That last glitter was such a let down. It looked so pretty. **womp womp**
I wish I had your nail shape😭
If anyone is looking for a better version of the last one, OPI did a beautiful one this year it's called OPI 'snow globetrotter' its stunning here: www.pinterest.com/pin/417568196675113805/
Yikes, seems like they did so well 'till ya hit the final polish.
instanerddd That was just awful!
Even through a lens, I could tell.... *****
