China Glaze - Stone Cold

This is from China Glaze's Hunger Games collection. I recently decided to read the books myself to see what all of the hype was about. They must be good, right? Well they are! I read all 3 books in about 4 days time.... So I'm excited to see how the movie turns out. :) This the only polish I bought from the collection though, it's the only one I found interesting. 
Stone Cold is a matte charcoal gray polish with silver shimmer.

The extra special magical part is that it's a true one coater! I can see that it might thicken with age, like most mattes, but it's already pigmented enough to cover in one easy coat. And it dries fast (but not too fast).


The shimmer comes alive after topcoat is applied. So if you like a shiny look, it's great for that too. It's a polish you can get many different looks from!




I prefer it with it's original matte finish myself, it's just too special the way it is!

  5. I couldn't decide if I liked this better shiny or matte... it looks really cool matte but the shimmer when it's shiny! It's just too good.

  8. I'm glad to find another twenties girl that liked the Hunger Games books! I committed the mistake of reading the first one at work... It was VERY hard to explain my colleagues that I was crying because of Rue. Anyway, I'm still waiting here in Mexico for the collection!

  9. I broke down and did get this one when I said initially no...I think I was swept away with the hype as I don't think I will end up wearing this more than once. I just saw a comparison on line of this with OPI's Suzi Ski's the Pyrenees(matte). They are almost identical with OPI being a tish darker and maybe a bit more silver in it.

  10. I felt the same way about this collection. Stone Cold and Luxe&Lush were the only ones I found appealing. Only disappointing thing was that it looks exactly like Zoya Loredana!

  11. I have a friend who is a cosmetologist, and can get items at cost...so I have the entire collection. There's some great colors in it!

  12. I can't decide myself if I prefer it matte or not.
    That's a hard question to solve! :D
