I've been seriously late on the whole China Glaze Emerald Sparkle craze. I don't know the history of the color but there were some confused polish lovers who didn't understand why it wasn't included in the re-release of "Wizard of Ooh Ahz Returns" (called Emerald City). China Glaze posted on their Facebook fan page that it was included in the 4 piece holiday promotion "Loves You Snow Much" (along with Ruby Pumps, 5 Golden Rings, and Tinsel). I'm not the biggest fan of green polish normally but this just had me super happy while wearing it. Only two coats with one base coat of Seche Vite and one top coat of Seche Vite (have I mentioned how much I love Seche Vite because I DO).
This was a very smooth glitter in a green base, without any grit. I hope to try this out again with China Glaze Matte Magic to see the difference, and check it against the Zoya polish that I received in the mail from their Green Friday promotion (held the day after Thanksgiving).China Glaze [official website] can be found online through several etailers, including my favorite Head2Toe Beauty [official website] or Sally's Beauty Supply [official website].
