Yep! It's time for the all of the holiday collections to come out, and the Kardashian Holiday Collection is next in the line-up!
I didn't have much sun this past weekend, so some pictures are with flash, some are outdoors in a little bit of sun, and some are in indirect light to show the details in the glitter. :)
First Up...
"Keeping Up with Santa"
1 coat, no top coat
Indoor with flash
I couldn't believe how perfect it was in 1 coat, AMAZING!!!
This is a very pretty red cream with a subtle hot pink shimmer, and 1 coat, can't beat that with a stick. Super saturated color! It reminds me of OPI "The Color of Minnie", I'll have to do a comparison later. :)
"Kardashing Through The Snow"
2 coats, no top coat.
Indoor with flash
Very cool red, green and blue glitter in a clear base.. Very opaque in 2 coats, coverage and application was easy. This would be great over any color or on it's own in 3 coats. I love this for the holidays!
"A Gold Winter's Night"
2 coats, no top coat
Indoor with flash
The soft pink tinted base is a nice touch, this added color sets it apart from most glitters.
Outdoors in overcast
Outdoors in indirect light
This is very unique! Pink tinted base with pink glitter, and gold and turquoise blue bar glitter! Easy to apply , and it went on smoothly with no issues. This would be awesome over a gold foil base nail polish color. :)
"All Is Glam, All Is Bright"
2 coats, no top coat
Indoors with flash
This is 2 coats and perfectly opaque, I love it! Silver, blue and red fine glitter, and it is not very gritty either. Applied smoothly and was not too thick or goopy. This is great by itself, but I think it is too opaque to be used on top of another color.
Outside in overcast
"Here We Kome A-Karoling"
2 coats, no top coat
Indoors with flash
Outdoors in the sun..yep the sun came out for a peek :)
Bright grape cream with purple and blue shimmer. It is sooo pretty!
"Deck the Dolls"
2 coats, no top coat
Outside in the sun
Indoor with flash
This color is a bright teal shimmer, it is not a terribly unique color, but pretty. Opaque in 2 coats. The formula was different on this color, it was more watery and harder to control, but I still managed to get clean lines in 2 coats
Overall, I like the glitters the best. All of the colors applied smoothly and were easy to apply, I only had some trouble with the teal shimmer. Most of the creams and shimmers are not that unique, and if you have a decent polish collection, you probably already have colors like these. The glitters are fantastic! Get the glitters, they are so pretty!!!!
Keep it Sweet!

That purple is now on my want list!
I was afraid I would love the shades but I am done with the Kardashians but brutally honest, I don't like them that much....I am not into bar glitter and the other shades are not that unique. Oh well there are enough other collections to splurge on :)
@Freshie- it is very pretty!
@Crystal- There are a lot of holiday collections this year to love, thanks for the comment :)
Here We Kome A Karoling Shall be mine! LOL!!!
And I've seen 3 dupes of Deck the Dolls just yesterday: Revlon's Ocean Breeze, Santee Marine and Queen's Colors Marine (I think these are the same company just different bottles. The colors are the same). I bought the QC version because I like it's bottle best. *smirks* Haven't tried it yet but I'm sure it's the same color as HWKAK.
Oops, that last line should have been: I'm sure it's the same color as Deck the Dolls.
