If you haven’t yet heard by now, you have been living under the largest rock on the planet. China Glaze Colours From The Capitol is their latest 12-piece collection for spring, and of course, is a tribute to the upcoming movie The Hunger Games, which is based on a series of best-selling books from Suzanne Collins. The movie comes out in March ( I will be there with bells on!)

Let me say, if you have not read the three books in the series (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay) RUN to the store and get them! I read them about a year ago and aside from The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series, these are some of the best books I have read in years and years. Yes they are technically “young adult” but are not written in a juvenile or off-putting way for an adult. They are nothing at all like the Twilight series (which I get asked a lot). The story grabs you, sucks you in and is totally amazing. I died a little when I finished them, they were that good.

This collection of polishes includes twelve new colors with a variety of finishes. I did have a few issues with the formula of some of them, more on that below.

RBG Cosmetics and LA boutique TENOVERSIX have partnered together this spring for a limited edition nail color inspired by something very LA. The blonde bombshell. The color is called Blonde on Blonde and is named after a famous Bob Dylan album.

Both of the founders of TENOVERSIX are blondes and they wanted to create a color that matched their hair color. I can totally relate to all this blonde stuff because I was born a pale blonde and have pretty much been every single shade of blonde known to mankind. It’s the shade I always return to and looks the best on me.

Zoya Feel is a winter collection that includes six soft neutral creme polishes.

Soft and neutral, but not boring!

The great thing about these is they really are all opaque in just two coats. Nothing sheer about them!

Here we are on Monday, yet again, sigh.

Color Club has a new collection called Rebel Debutante for spring 2010. The flyer I got with these says “Rebellious shades that go from classic to trendy”. I’m not so sure I totally agree with the statement that these are rebellious shades. I think this collection is fairly tame actually. There are a few standout colors here, but I didn’t feel like anything totally original was created in this collection.

The formula was pretty good on these, if a but thick. A couple were harder than others to apply and I’ll note those ones below.

Check them out below!

Who Are You Wearing?

Who Are You Wearing? is a pale white/grey. I wound up liking this more than most of the others for some unexplained reason. It’s just a very pretty light color, but isn’t boring. I think I like the grey in it. This was on the sheer side so was three coats.
