China Glaze Halloween 2010: Ick-A-Bod-Y

Even though it's only July, it's never too soon to look ahead to Halloween! China Glaze has once again come out with some frighteningly boo-tiful shades for us. Ick-A-Bod-Y is an orange glitter with a deep grey-green base. The glitter is bright and foil-like and this shade covered well using 2 coats. The finish was surprisingly smooth and the formula is consistent with their Glitters from last Fall, being a little jelly-like in texture.

Above & Below: The top photo is shown using an Ott lamp, while the bottom photo was taken with a flash. The glitter in this shade is uniformly shaped, relatively small, and extremely plentiful. I had a few bald spots after the first coat, but all was remedied with a second coat.

Above & Below: A side-by-side with 2 China Glaze Halloween shades from last you will give you a better idea of how Ick-A-Bod-Y compares. Do you need Ick-A-Bod-Y? I guess that depends on you, but they are vastly different.

The Awakening Collection of which Ick-A-Body-Y is a part of, will be available in a 4-piece boxed set that also includes 2 other shades, Zombie Zest and Mummy May I. It also contains a bottle of their Fast Forward top coat. I'll take this opportunity to remind you that if you check out the monthly VNS code in the upper right corner of my blog, you can get a free bottle of Fast Forward with any order this month. I'm getting confused with all of these new collections coming at us, but I believe these shades will also be available for individual purchase. I'll get the other two shades posted tomorrow. I love Halloween, so I'm thrilled at what China Glaze did with this collection. Are you looking forward to these shades and Halloween?
