China Glaze Wicked (Part) Collection - Swatches & Review

Saturday 22 October 2016


Now this is definitely a big step back in time.  I believe that the China Glaze Wicked Collection were among some of the first Halloween polishes that I purchased.  I was also still quite new to buying China Glaze polishes so my collection was very small, which is kinda funny to think about considering China Glaze makes up a big part of my entire polish collection.  The Wicked Collection was released back in 2012 and actually contains six polishes (well seven if you also include Ghoulish Glow but I believe that was another re-promoted shade and not a new release).  I only ever picked up three of the shades, which I will share with you today.


Cast A Spell is a dark green with golden shimmer.  I quite like this one.  It's not a polish that I would grab for often (in fact I think I may have only ever worn this polish once in four years - certainly tells you something doesn't it?) but I do really like it.  The formula is fantastic and is super lose to being a a one coater.  I did use for two coats for my swatch.

Immortal is a slate grey with shimmers in various colours.  This is probably one of the prettiest greys that I own.  I just love the shimmers in it.  This one does apply a little patchy on the first coat, however does even out on the second coat.  My swatch shows two coats.

Make A Spectacle has a clear base and is filled with iridescent glitters in different sizes.  I love this one!  It's definitely my favorite of the three polishes I own from this collection.  The formula is great and easy to use, plus it looks so different over different base colours and in different lighting.  So in love.  For my swatch I did one coat over Immortal.

Looking back on these older China Glaze Halloween Collections makes me disappointed that they didn't do something new and exciting for the collection this year.  I have my fingers crossed for something awesome for their Holiday collection. *spoiler alert* I have ordered the Holiday collection and it should be on it's way to me soon!
