I hope everyone enjoyed themselves with the countdown! I didn't stay up for it because I've been, and still am, nursing a flu for a few days now. :( I had thought to come up with some nail art for the New Year but wasn't really in the mood with all the sniffing and stuff.
Instead, I shall share with you some of the collections that are said to be scheduled for release this year! I've first read about these on Inky Polisholicious and The Crimson Petal. I can't wait for them to be released!! :D
If you've gotten your tissues / hankies ready (to clean up the drool)...
First, we have some collections from OPI.

OPI: New York Ballet Collection
More soft shades from OPI! They look really sweet and pretty but not quite my thing too. Perhaps there is really no inner ballerina in me.Then, we have some collections from Essie:
Essie: Spring 2012

Last but not least, we have upcoming collections from China Glaze!
I am most hyped up about China Glaze's future collections and they have officially skyrocketed to one of my favorite polish brands. <3

Now, this is more up my alley - darker colors! I Herd That and I'm Not Lion are practically leaping at me - yup, you've guessed it, the sparkly ones!!
More glitters!!! This time: crackled. I only have OPI's Black Shatter in my collection. It was the polish that got me started on OPI and other brands apart from the typical drugstore polishes in Singapore (like Sally Hansen, Silky Girl, etc). Having said that, I am not too sure if I am that excited over more crackle/shatter polishes. It is definitely an easy way to add some interesting effect on the nails but there is only so much shatter I can take before it becomes meh to me.
I have yet to try a magnetic polish but it is definitely on my to-try list. I'm glad that China Glaze decided to do a magnetic polish collection as well and I sure hope that it will be affordable. There are six colors in this collection and I'm eyeing the blue (Pull Me Close), the purple (Ins Chemistry) and maybe the black/grey/gunmetal too (Attraction). The collection also comes with three separate designs!
Now, this is yet another collection that I'm drooling over! There are six awesome shades in this collection. Just look at the bottles, need I say more? *drools all over lappie*

China Glaze: Colors from the Capitol
More drooling!! This collection is inspired by the Hunger Games trilogy - which you should definitely read if you haven't started on it yet! Just like the books, the colors are equally amazing!! Fast track, Hook and Line, Stone Cold, Smoke and Ashes, Harvest Moon, Riveting, Electrify, Luxe and Lush... even Foie Gras looks great to me (and I am not one who likes nudes / cremes)! I can't wait - for both the collection and the movie!! :D
And there, I've shared all the collections I've read about! Of course, there are new and interesting collections from other brands such as a-england but I couldn't find much info about them. Nevertheless, I'm sure you can see why I'm sooo hyped up about 2012 (and why my piggy bank is weeping)!
Which collections caught your eye? :D

Yummy!!! So excited!! The only things I was able to get my hands on so far were Nicki Minaj. Pink Friday, Fly, and Save Me were the ones I liked so I scooped them up. Can't wait for all the other collections. Everything except the crackle excites me! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!!! I hope you get better quickly.
Thanks Marisa! <3
ReplyDeleteI can't wait either!! *jumps around in excitement*
Love your picks from the Nicki Minaj collection! Save Me sure looks the most interesting! :D
Thanks for the shoutout, babe! Hope you're feeling better. Like you, I'm most excited about the CG Prismatic! And thanks for the link for the OPI Holland Spring shimmers! I feel like I want them all! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHappy 2012!
Thank you for the shout-out and for showing us all these fab collections (and all in one place too!!) I can't wait to see more about China Glaze's Safari collection!
ReplyDelete@Susan: you're welcome~ I'm feeling much better after sleeping so much for the past few days. haha! Oh man, I know what you mean! I want them all too! They're all so pretty! #_#
ReplyDelete@Eugenia: you're welcome~ Can't wait to see the new a-england collection too! :D
Happy New Year to you too! I can't wait for these collections .. especially China Glaze's Hunger Games one!
ReplyDeleteMe tooo!! Funnily enough, I've completely forgotten about the Hunger Games trilogy that was sitting in my to-read shelf until this collection came out! lol! I'm so glad I finally read it :D
ReplyDeleteum.. wow! I can't wait for the Nicki Minaj to hit Australia!! Do you know any good websites that sell China Glaze? No where in Aus. sells them :(
ReplyDeleteI'm not too sure about it myself but 'Chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake has a rather list on where to get polishes in Sydney (http://www.cosmeticcupcake.com/p/where-to-buy.html). Alternatively, you can try ordering from our Singapore etailer (http://meimeisignatures.com/) - she ships international too.
ReplyDeleteHope this helps! :)
