Review: China Glaze Haunting Set

Hello Hello Now that it is closer to All Hallows Eve (or Halloween, whatever) I decided to do my China Glaze Halloween set review.

These are the polishes that were included in the set that I bought. From left to right are: It's Alive, Ghoulish Glow, Black Mesh (crackle) and Fast Forward Top Coat.

First up is It's Alive, which is a dark olive green base with yellowy green hexagonal and micro glitter. It kinda reminds me of puke, but in a totally awesome halloween-y way. I applied two coats but it was still a bit too patchy for my liking and could have done with a third.

This is Ghoulish Glow on its own and over It's Alive. It has a slight light green shinner to it but basically just looks like a clear coat when applied on its own. When it's over It's Alive it seems to make the green look more dull, but I still think it looks quite cool. It dried suprisingly quickly and glows in the dark really well if you expose it to enough sunlight.

This is Black Mesh over Ghoulish Glow over It's Alive. It's a good black crackle and I think I prefer it to the other crackles I have tried, such as BarryM. I didn't really like the look of the shatter over the glitter as it made it look much darker and you couldn't see as much of the awesome glitter so I only did it to my pinky nail. And, I also tried the Top Coat (which was in last years set) and I still don't like it. It has a very harsh smell and also makes my polish flake off so I'll stick with Seche Vite. Recommendations: It's Alive, Ghoulish Glow Regrets: Fast Forward Top Coat. Thanks for reading, KraziGirli
