October marks one of my favorite times of the year! Some of the reasons that I love October so much are as follows - fall is officially beginning, my wedding anniversary, awesome hoodie weather and HALLOWEEN! Oh ... and let's not forget the fact that I LOVE fall polish lines. I did come to appreciate some of this past summers bright and bold colors but honestly, I am a fall polish girl through and through! I love the richness of the colors that fall brings.
China Glaze has come correct this season with the
2012 Wicked Collection. There are six really pretty Halloween inspired colors with names like Cast a Spell and Immortal in this collection. You can buy the collection at
Ulta right now and they will be available at
Sally Beauty Supply this coming Monday, October 1, 2012.
I was on a trip to Ulta last week when I spotted an entire rack of Halloween goodies. As I got closer and closer I realized that they had put out the Wicked collection a bit early and without hesitation I grabbed the one color that I knew I needed to have! Bizarre Blurple is an amazing purple base with loads of blue shimmer.

I DIE!!! Bizarre Blurple! |
In the bottle, this polish looks ridiculous and it does not disappoint on the nail! When I brought it home I made my hubby let me test it, with some other newbies, on his nails! Bizarre Blurple was by far his favorite of the haul. (YES, I make my husband let me test colors on his nails!)
Now let's see what it looks like on lady hands, shall we?

SO PRETTY! Bizarre Blurple has a really nice formula and with two coats I got full opacity. This color is gorgeous and I didn't even need a top coat. I have several similar colors in my collection but nothing quite like Bizarre Blurple. The two colors that came to mind immediately when I bought BB were Orly Mysterious Curse and Royal Velvet. They look really similar in the bottle so I decided to do a quick comparison to see how similar they really are.

Don't they look the same in the bottle? |

But, they are not the same at all! |
Well, there ya have it! In my opinion Bizarre Blurple is the must own of the Wicked Collection. Let me know what you think? Do you have any other favorites from this collection?
I broke down and bought the whole set. I love bizarre blurple, immortal and cast a spell the most.
