OPI Holiday! Holiday Glow!!!


Holiday Glow is pretty if not necessarily the stand-out of the OPI Holiday 2009 collection. It appears to me to be a chocolate brown containing tons of tiny silvery glitter. You won't get the bling of bright colors and large flashy glitter, but instead a sophisticated dark polish that has a ton of sparkle. Perfect for winter!

Outdoors:
Indoors:

The first coat goes on really sheer, and you can see the silvery glitter.


Holiday Glow reaches it true potential once you get the second coat on. It's got a nice glossy dark coverage, and you can still see the little silvery sparkle. Another coat can improve the coverage but may not be completely necessary. I put a third coat on my ring and pinky fingers to see how much difference it would make.


Outdoors in the late afternoon sun:



In shade, you can see the glitter reflecting, below:


Back indoors with overhead plus natural light, with my new favorite prop, the Santy Claus ornament!


Again, this is a pretty polish and fills a need in the winter dark polish wardrobe. If you want to wear dark drown polish, and want a bit of shimmer and sparkle, Holiday Glow is a great choice. Is it unique? I don't have a lot of expertise, but it does seem quite similar to one of my limited edition mini-polishes in my Borghese holiday set (review to come!).
