Did you know there are not one but two different Winter Affair collections from Color Club this year?
There is the regular one I received (which can be purchased directly from
Victoria Nails,
Transdesign, and
ShopColorClub.com) and the one Sally Beauty received (
here and
here) - which is scented! And they are
weird scents too -
pomegranate, wooded herbs, and cocoa marshmallow!

| Snow-Flakes over Ho-Ho Holly |
This is actually the second time I swatched this collection. The first time I got frustrated and quit. Three of the polishes in this collection -
Winter Affair,
Berry and Bright and
Ho-Ho Holly - had a very thick consistency and had to be thinned in order to be applied.
I added a matte topcoat to try to bring out the colors in
Snow-Flakes, but I think it was simply a bad combination with Ho-Ho Holly. However, I did swatch Snow-Flakes over black
here (there is also a comparison to Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure).
I wish I could say there were standouts in the collection, but there really weren't. However, if you haven't had a chance to pick up a Sally Hansen dupe, now would be the time! Snow-Flakes is a great flakey polish without question!
