Catrice: C03 Wrapped In Happiness
Coppery orange shimmer

C03 “Wrapped In Happiness” is another one third of Catrice’s 2022 Holiday collection “Sparks Of Joy”. I’ll link to the two others in the collection as I post them here on the blog.

The formula of “Wrapped In Happiness” is sheer. I used two coats and the drying time is good. I think I should have used three coats to get full coverage.

I stamped on it. The motif is from Moyou London’s stamping plate “Pro Collection-14”. I stamped with “Vinous” from El Corazòn.

This is the final manicure:

This is “Wrapped In Happiness” alone; two coats and no topcoat.  The shimmer is quite amazing.

Depend: #5135 Merry & Jolly
Classic red with pink and silver shimmer

#5135 “Merry & Jolly” is from Depend’s Holiday 2022 collection “Be Everything”. This is my fourth red from the collection.

The formula is great and the polish is easy to work with. Pigmentation is very good too, and I used two coats for full opacity. The drying time is good.

I triple stamped on it. The motif is from an XL stamping plate with the letter “Q”. I stamped with Konad’s White, El Corazòn’s “Bisgue” and Colour Alike’s “Fuchsia Flash”.

This is the final result, including a layer of topcoat.

I think the triple stamp look gorgeous!

Here’s #5135 “Merry & Jolly” on it own; two coats and no topcoat yet. The polish dries up a bit gritty.
