Had been really busy and hardly had time to do my nails.. :(
Here's a quick comparison for some of the polishes in the China Glaze Happy HoliGlaze collection!
First up, is
China Glaze Mingle With Kringle which I had mentioned that it reminds me of China Glaze
Goldie But Goodie from the Autumn Nights collection.

Mingle With Kringle vs Goldie But Goodie |
I didn't went and took a look at my
Goldie But Goodie when I was swatching the Christmas collection, but just from my impression, I thought
Mingle With Kringle seems really similar to
Goldie But Goodie.
It was only when I swatched them side by side then I realised they were a totally different kind of golds.
Mingle With Kringle is a much brighter yellow leaning kind of gold that would really look like a pot of gold, while
Goldie But Goodie is a more brownish leaning copper type of dirty gold. Infact
Goldie But Goodie hardly even look like gold anymore when placed beside
Mingle With Kringle.

Mingle With Kringle vs Goldie But Goodie |
What is similar between these 2 polishes is probably the application and finish. Both are foil like polishes,
Mingle With Kringle is bright gold with coppery darker gold flakes, while
Goldie But Goodie is rust gold with silver micro shimmers/flakes.

Goldie But Goodie is more opaque between the 2, and they both dis-integrates into irritating gold flakes that sticks to your skin when you try to remove them.
Next up is a comparison between the reds:
|
Ring In the Red vs Just Be-Claws vs Ruby Pumps |
Ring In the Red,
Just Be-Claws and
Ruby Pumps are all red with shimmers/glitters but you can see from the picture that they are very different from each other.
Out of these 3, I must say I'm absolutely in love with
China Glaze Ring In the Red! It's one of my un-tries and when I swatched it.. I was like.. woah! So pretty! LOL

Nevertheless, I would admit that
Just Be-Claws is a great colour for Christmas, especially for nail art as it's quite opaque. It is also very suitable for people would like something less flashy. :)

I will use
China Glaze Ring In The Red for my Christmas Manicure this year! haha!
Last comparison for today would be the blupple glitters!
|
CG All Wrapped Up vs LA Girl Eutopia |
Another comparison that came to my mind when I was swatching is these 2!
China Glaze All Wrapped Up vs
LA Girl Eutopia!
|
CG All Wrapped Up vs LA Girl Eutopia |
China Glaze All Wrapped Up and
LA Girl Eutopia are quite similar colour, with LA Girl a little more purple. Their main difference is their glitters.
China Glaze All Wrapped Up is made up of very dense fine glitters, while
LA Girl Eutopia is made up of sparse small hex glitters with some large hex glitters.
In summary,
All Wrapped Up is more suitable to be used on it's own, while
Eutopia is more suitable to be used as a topper.

Between these 2, I think I like
China Glaze All Wrapped Up more just because of the way it sparkles under the light. So pretty!

That's all for my comparison today! None of the other polishes sparked any interest in me to compare them so I'll just be doing these 3.
Hope these swatches helped! :)
