Collection: China Glaze 2015 Fall, The Great Outdoors
Welp, my low-buy’s not going that great! I spotted a slew of colors from China Glaze’s new fall collection, The Great Outdoors, at Winners and decided to pick up…several. This is the first China Glaze collection I’ve been wowed by for some time now! I got Cabin Fever, Check Out the Silver Fox, Free Bear Hugs, Pondering, Sleeping Under the Stars, and Wood You Wanna?
Finally, Wood You Wanna? (82711) is a highly metallic pewter with a deep mauve-taupe base and dense, dark silver shimmer.
This is a One-Coat Wonder! Yes, that’s just one coat in the swatch:
Pretty stunning, right? Application is super smooth and the polish is opaque with a single coat. The finish is sparkly and metallic without those annoying frosty streaks. It’s nice to finish up my The Great Outdoors batch with a perfect 10!
China Glaze Nail Lacquer retails for US$7.50 and is 0.5 US fl oz / 14 mL. China Glaze nail polishes are free of toluene, added formaldehyde, and dibutyl phthalate (DBP), and are made in the USA.
China Glaze is part of American International Industries (who also own brands like Seche, EzFlow and Ardell), a private company based in Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Oh lawd, I love it. I want it. Ahhh!
I’m trying to think if I have something similar – surely I must. Will report back.

I was surprised how much I liked this! I can’t imagine there aren’t some similar ones out there, but the formula was so nice with this one. Can’t wait to see the similar ones in your collection!

Thankfully someone did comparison swatches and the closest one is from a brand I’ve never heard of!

I have Essie Sable Collar and that’s it. It warrants a place on my wish list.

Oh wait, I have an American Apparel polish called Bronze Dash that looks similar in the base colour but the shimmer particles are different:
It’s possibly warmer as well.

The rational part of my brain says no, I don’t need the CG, but the makeup addict says BUY IT!

Yeah, the MT (I don’t know it, either) is definitely the closest! Sable Collar is nice but not close enough 🙂
