Collection: China Glaze 2012 Winter, Holiday Joy
I recently picked up a three-pack of holiday-ready China Glaze nail lacquers from Winners, and the first of the set is Red Satin (80645), a basic true red cream with a clean look. It’s midtoned, but on the lighter and brighter side.
I didn’t find it especially satin-y—it’s more of a glossy, candy cane red with a slight jelly finish.
The formula is very good. Two coats went on smoothly and effortlessly, and gave full opacity.
If you’re in need of a jolly red cream, this is a perfectly serviceable one, if unremarkable.
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.
I guess for people without a lot of reds in their collection, this would be a perfect true red… but a red fiend like you, this bottle will just get swallowed up!

I keep trying to avoid acquiring new reds, and this was an easy slip-up to make since it came in a set of three.

I just took a quick look through my little nail polish collection and I don’t actually own a single bottle of red polish! Why don’t I own any red polish? I think that I need to fix that!

I know!!! I thought that I did have at least one, but i really don’t! Maybe it was in my purge of old make up and nail polish that I did last year.
