<em>China Glaze Nail Lacquers in Blue Year&#8217;s Eve, Glittering Garland, Twinkle Lights, Icicle</em></p>
<h2>China Glaze Let It Snow: Blue Year&#8217;s Eve, Glittering Garland, Twinkle Lights, Icicle</h2>
<p>To round out<strong> <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/china-glaze-let-it-snow-collection-for-holiday-2011">China Glaze&#8217;s Let It Snow Collection</a></strong>, we have the final four: <span class="shadereview">Blue Year&#8217;s Eve</span> (shimmering blue), <span class="shadereview">Glittering Garland</span> (glittery green), <span class="shadereview">Twinkle Lights</span> (mix of glittery shades), and <span class="shadereview">Icicle</span> (silver shimmer).</p>
<ul>
<li><span class="shadereview">Blue Year&#8217;s Eve</span> is a medium-dark blue with lighter blue shimmer. It almost has a violet edge to it. It was mostly opaque in two coats&#8211;there was a hint of visible nail line at certain angles. <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/mac-nail-trend-fw-2010-review-photos-swatches#image4">MAC Ming Blue</a> was the closest dupe I could think of, but it is a bit darker.</li>
<li><span class="shadereview">Glittering Garland</span> is a deep, dark blackened-green base with lighter forest green shimmer&#8211;it almost looks like flakes of sparkle to me. It was opaque in two coats. The base color reminded me of <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/china-glaze-holiday-2010-part-2-review-photos-swatches#image1">China Glaze Jolly Holly</a> but mixed with the shimmer from <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/orly-cosmic-fx-collection-review-photos-swatches#image2">ORLY It&#8217;s Not Rocket Science</a>.</li>
<li><span class="shadereview">Twinkle Lights</span> is a mix of gold, emerald green, and ruby red glitter suspended in a clear base. It was surprisingly opaque at two coats, and I&#8217;d expect a third to have made it opaque or just nearly. I couldn&#8217;t think of any dupes, but I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if there were a few.</li>
<li><span class="shadereview">Icicle</span> is a bright silver foil with slightly darker silver micro-glitter. It dries super quick and was opaque in two coats. It looked a lot like <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/china-glaze-holiday-2010-part-2-review-photos-swatches#image6">China Glaze Cheers to You</a>, but <em>Icicle</em> is slightly less metallic but not by much and a touch lighter.</li>
</ul>
<p>I didn&#8217;t have any notable issues with the formula on these four.  <em>Blue Year&#8217;s Eve</em> was less pigmented than anticipated but still was just about opaque in two coats; I could only detect visible nail line faintly at certain angles under a fair amount of lighting.  <em>Icicle</em> seems the most dupeable out of this set, while <em>Glittering Garland</em> was the shade I felt stood out the most; there&#8217;s something about the way the shimmer is shaped and set in the base color.  These polishes weren&#8217;t too thick or too thin, had good, even flow, and applied easily.  I typically get a week of wear with minimal tip wear with China Glaze&#8217;s formula.</p>
