China Glaze Poolside Collection Swatches and Review

Filed under China Glaze, Swatches
I love neons. I think because I was born in January my sign gravitates me to bright shiny things and bright neon colors. Needless to say, like many, I have a short attention span and I will stop paying attention if something bright catches my eye
Available April 2010 but you may see them appear online in March.
Distributors that sell China Glaze at great prices.

Who is buyin?
- Price - $3 and up depending on where you purchase them.
- Locations- online and in retail stores.
Color Breakdown:
- Sun Worshiper- Uber neon pale orange. This is very unique. But if you can’t handle intense opaque shades this oen isn’t for you. I love this one <3
- Kiwi Cool Ada-Bright neon green. It reminds me of the time when I use to use my highlighter in class to paint on my nails. But in this case it’s way prettier. **Don’t act like you never did that before P **
- Yellow Polka Dot Bikini- Bright yellow. This one is semi sheer so I highly recommend some white polish underneath to make it pop! LOL kinda looks like a yellow neon highlighter too. Fun and funky!
- Pool Party- Bright magenta hot pinkish.
- Flip Flop Fantasy- Intense salmon pink.
- Towel Boy Toy- Semi sheen “neon”blue. While this isn’t some crazy off the wall neon it is still very pretty. I think this will be a huge seller.
Overall these colors are bright and beautiful and dry to a semi-matte finish. I find the best tip is to start off with a white base coat and then 2-3 layers of polish. I wouldn’t exceed 3 or you will end up with goop or ugly streaks. These color dry semi matte so make sure you put on a clear top coat to keep the color looking fresh and long lasting. I just got today so I can’t speak on how long it will last but I’ll twitter it and let you know how long they last

If you like neon colors and you are looking for a matte finish I recommend getting these and seal the deal to make them extremely matte with OCC Flat line polish($8).
Top picks in order of my faves( too hard to pick):
- Sun Worshiper- for being so unique and intense
- Towel Boy Toy- Beautiful blue sheen
- Flip Flop Fantasy- Bright and will look amazing on the toes
- Yellow Polka Dot Bikini- Another fun toe color
- Pool Party- Great opaque coverage
- Kiwi Cool Ada- ahh to be reminded of highlighters


These were applied without the base. They will appear smoother once a base and top coat is applied.







This is how I feel about the new polishes.. <3

super pretty nail colors. I reanny want sun worshiper, flop flop fantasy and pool party.
oooooooo i like the pink and orange ones!! i saw some swatches on other websites but they don’t seem that nice as seen in your pictures… hmmmm. because of the lighting or what?!?!
super cute
i like kiwi coolada and pool party XD
I am! I’m a big fan of Sun Worshiper, can’t wait till it comes out. It will look perfect on the tootsies!

I love all of them
Yay for the neon pinky pink, the blue and the sun orange
If they’re not limited edition, I can buy
Love them all!!
These are sooooo cute! Thanks for showing them :).
YES!!!! I LOVE CHINA GLAZE!!!
Thank you SO much for the links to the websites that sell nail polishes for less money. I’ve been trying to find great nail polishes, but all the best ones are too expensive! I’m so happy I’ve found someplace that will sell quality polishes for less.
SO PRETTY!
I love how bright these all are!
Ohh, I got most of the polishes from the Up and Away collection, I might skip out on this one.
I like the red tone polishes, and just the blue. I am not much of a matt fan for colors like this. But I always want to try out China Glaze. I have heard so much about them, but never get to try them.
My pick would be flip flop, and pool party.
oohh! i was also born in january!!! now i see why i’m also easily distracted by bright, colorful things =]
my faves are towel boy toy because i just adore blues, and sun worshipper because it’s so insanely bright <3
Soooo gorgeous colours. I wish CG nail polishes were easier to get in Germany.
Thank you for the swatches!
So beautiful, I love fun colors that are different and I’m going to buy all of those polishes.
I want all of them! I love neon.
I love nail polish names….towel boy toy haha
i have essie’s matte about you matte finishing topcoat and it looks best when its applied on top of a holographic polish or one with tiny glitters or sparkles.
I totally want pool party and flip flop
though even with opi’s hong kong collection to keep me company I always want the new polish right now.
up and away was too pastel for me.
April is so far away
soon.. just a few more days
They’re not the super shiny kinds too ^_^

This collection looks amazing…perfect for the summer
I think Pool Party is going to be my favorite!
