China Glaze: Ruby Pumps (Wizard of Ooh Ahz Collection, 2001 &2009)
This colour is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Definitely one of my favourites in my stash. It originally came from the 'Wizard of Ooh Ahz' collection back in 2001, and they re-released the collection again in 2009. I'm so glad they did! Just as the name suggests, this colour is reminiscent of Dorothy's ruby shoes in the Wizard of Oz. It's a medium-dark red base with the most amazing red glitter through it. Goes opaque in 2 coats, or you can layer one coat over other colours for a different look. It isn't a real pain to get off like some glitters are either. For anyone looking for a sparkly red, GET THIS COLOUR. You won't regret it. Promise.
Chine Glaze: Seduce Me (Patent Leather In The City Collection, 2005)
This shade is great for Autumn and Winter. It's a real berry red with a slight undertone of fuchsia. It only requires 2 coats for full opacity, and if you're wanting a slightly darker shade you can add a 3rd coat. Make sure you use a high-shine top coat with this one though, or it will look a little dull. This is fast becoming one of the most frequently used shades in my collection.
OPI: Wocka Wocka! (Muppets Collection, 2011)
I originally bought this red because I wanted a colour for Christmas. I'd never really worn reds before so I didn't think I'd be wearing this other than for Christmas and Valentines Day. Boy was I wrong. This is a beautiful shade of red, very rich with a slight shimmer that isn't too over the top. Even without the top coat it has a nice shine. The consistency of this polish is flawless, it glides on and only takes 2 coats to become perfectly even and opaque. I'm so glad I bought this polish, I don't know why I didn't start wearing reds sooner!
