THE HUNGRY ASIAN: Holiday 2013 Collection PART II [Secrets, Frigid Digits, & Sleigh Bells Bling]

The Hungry Asian (L->R) Secrets, Frigid Digits,
and Sleigh Bells Bling

Merry Christmas [and Christmas Eve] to all those who celebrate! Today I have the 2nd part of The Hungry Asian's Holiday 2013 Collection. I thought this was the most appropriate post for today since I didn't do any holiday manis this year hahah. You can check out my Christmas mani challenge I did last year, here, if you want something more festive! :P

(Please forgive the slightly red hue in these swatches. I was learning how to use the sun in San Diego, morning is a horrible time lmao)

The Hungry Asian Secrets, direct sunlight

The Hungry Asian Secrets

Secrets is a "medium slightly greyed purple with scattered holographic glitter. There are also tiny hints of red sparkle". This polish is stunning. It's one of my favorites in this collection. Please note the macro and the shot in the sun to see how awesome this polish truly is. Then appreciate it. hahahha

I did 2 coats of Secrets, plus top coat. It didn't give me any issues. The application was smooth and the dry time was good. No complaints about this one from me!

The Hungry Asian Frigid Digits

Frigid Digits is a "light teal glitterbomb! All different shapes and sizes of teal and white hex, circle and bar glitter". I love the variety of glitter in this polish and the way it layers on the nail. Not to mention the color is great and right up my alley!

I did 1 coat of Frigid Digits over Secrets, from above. The application was great, smooth and the glitter coverage was great. You could probably have a full coverage mani in 2-3 coats. Dry time was perfect, no issues.

The Hungry Asian Sleigh Bells Bling over Zoya Jacqueline

Sleigh Bells Bling is a "festive red and green glitters in various shapes and sizes, including hex, square and bar. The base has a subtle golden shimmer that warms up any manicure". The EPITOME of Christmas glitter polish. I'm actually wearing it right now as I type, for Christmas with my family tomorrow! This polish is another fun variety of glitter brought to you by Kae. If you're worried about bar glitter, no worries it doesn't stick up one bit!

I did 2 coats of Sleigh Bells Bling over Zoya Jacqueline. The application was smooth and packed with a ton of glitter! Currently, I'm wearing it on its own and 3 coats is full and opaque. (I'll insert a picture here when I post on Instagram hahaha). Dry time was good, no issues with this polish at all.

Again, here's a link to Part I of the collection if you missed it!

Merry Christmas!
