Hello there and welcome back! Today I have A LOT of photos to show you. The China Glaze holiday collection this year is the Sesame Street Holiday collection in honor of their 50th anniversary. Its a massive collection, 12 new polishes, plus there is so much sparkle, so lets take a look!
Me Ate Santas Cookies
2 coats
A light blue metally shimmer
This polish is so pretty, and is such a good blue. Its a bit of a foil like finish, and most often these leave brush stroke, but not this one! This has a perfect formula, covers great in 2 easy coats.
#thisismystreet
2 coats
A topper filled with holographic glitters that pull a bit of a gold/sand stone shade.
I love this! Its like a warm toned holographic glitter and I just LOVE it! It would be best worn as a topper, but covers well in 3 coats, plus some dabbing here and there.
Giggle all the Way
2 coats
A rose gold pink/red shimmer foil polish.
This polish is so unique, is it red? Is it pink? It is gold? Yep, to all of those. Its so pretty on and has an excellent formula too. Perfect in 2 easy coats.
Gift Fur You
2-3 coats
A magenta glitter with various sizes of glitters, in a clear base.
This could be used as a topper for sure, and honestly its probably better that way too. However here it is built up in about 2-3 coats depending on your thickness and or any dabbing that needs done. Its a really pretty magenta shade and I think its a pretty glitter!
On the Nice List
3 coats
A clear based red bar/tinsel glitter pieces, the base seems to have a hint of red in it.
In the past I've not enjoyed tinsel glitters/bar glitters but I'll have to say these aren't bad. I got full coverage in 3 coats, but I don't think I would wear this, this way. I feel like I would rather wear this as a topper.
FA-LA-AH-AH-AHHH!
3 coats
A shifting shimmer that goes purple, gold, and marsala.
This is a beauty and thats all there is to it! This is a bit thinner for this type of finish but it covers in 3 super easy and quick coats, and looks so amazing on. Its shifty and I love the depth it has to it. So pretty, and its has so much color. I love it!
Cele-bert!
2 coats
A clear based polish filled with lots of small and large gold/green glitters.
This is an interesting color, is it green? Is it gold? I still don't know, so green gold it is, or gold green? Which sounds better? Anywhoo this is another one that I would wear as a topper more so but it does look nice alone in a few coats.
A Grouchy New Year
3 coats
A clear based polish with small green glitters, and big green holographic glitters.
This is MOST certainly a better topper than a full fledged polish. Its a gorgeous bright Christmas Green, covers well in 3 coats, but I would rather just have it be a topper. Its way to textured for my liking in this format.

2 coats
An emerald green with a blue/teal shimmer.
I am loving this take on a green polish. Its more emerald than most and it looks really nice in my opinion. Plus it has this blue/teal like shimmer in it that really picks up in the light and creates a great combo of colors.
50 Shimmering Years
2 coats
A sand stone gold with a scattered holographic micro glitter.
I love this so so much! I will be using this one this holiday season for sure. It covers perfectly in two coats, and its the perfect colors. Sort of a sandstone shade with a scattered holographic and I am obsessed! Its so pretty!
T Is For Tinsel
2 coats
A silvery fine glitter with a scattered blue glitter/shimmer.
This is a neat silver, very cool toned. It covers ok in 2 coats, but I actually love it as a topper. It has a nice blue shimmer in it so it really pops!
Since 1969
2 coats
A black/silver glitter.
The darkest polish of the collection is quite sparkly! This whole charcoal trend seems to be a thing right now, but I happen to like this one a lot! This covered perfectly in two coats!
Aren't they all really pretty!? I really like them all, its a fun collection and they all have rather decent formulas. I have a big Youtube Video up on my Channel now too if you would like to see them live swatched, here.
Let me know what one was your favorite?
