Be Cherry!, man this polish applied beautifully, formula was fantastic, opaque & just easy to work with & opaque in two coats. Photographic however was awful, my camera just wouldn't be up it's true colour which is a medium to deep pink, that leans red. It's not red with pink tones.

New Year, New Hue, is a medium deep purple berry kind of shade, it's very opaque. I think this is a great shade for winter specifically because while it leans dark, it's still fun & slightly playful. Opaque in two coats. I also do want to apologize, somehow I misplaced or deleted the nail art photo for this one.

On Your Mistletoes, is a gorgeous deep blue with hints of green. This is my favourite creme out of this collection. Extremely opaque, you can use actually get this opaque in one coat if applied properly. Very pleasant to work with, however I do recommend being careful when applying because if you flood your cuticle or get this on the skin, it may stain a bit.

Ring in the Bling, is a gorgeous red shimmer, polish that has gold shimmer flecks within it. It also has something else that's different about it. It's almost like a fogginess or a berry tone, but it doesn't quite show in the photos. I recommend checking this out in store, because it's just stunning. Two coats for full opacity.

My thoughts on this collection are, they're all fantastic. There's not a problem polish in the collection, they all had great opacity, & formula. The shades are also super wearable, there's nothing that's too crazy in this collection. This collection is available as of now, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding them.

My personal favourites are On Your Mistletoes, Ring in the Bling & Social-Lights.

Thank you so much for reading,
