China Glaze re-releases the Wizard of Ooh Ahz Collection

I'm sure you all have heard about this before now. I had plans of posting this last week, but then blogger wasn't playing nice with me, so I had to hold off for a bit, and then I forgot. LOL.

Anyway, I received this press release from China Glaze last week:



THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE CHINA GLAZE

China Glaze Re-Releases The Wizard Of Ohh Ahz

Los Angeles, CA – (November 2009): Click your Ruby Pumps and come travel with China Glaze down the yellow brick road to meet “The Wizard of Ohh Ahz”! Just in time for the holidays, China Glaze is re-releasing the ever-so popular Wizard of Ohh Ahz collection! Very similar to the original version that was released in 2001, these colors will remind you of exactly why China Glaze glitters are always in the forefront! Colors in the 6 piece acetate include (from left to right as shown in the photo above):

·        Ruby Pumps: An all time red glitter favorite!
·        Cowardly Lyin’: Gold frost with specks of gold micro glitter.
·        The Ten Man: Silver frost with specks of micro silver glitter.
·        Dorothy Who?: Blue polish with massive amounts of silver and blue glitter!
·        C-C-Courage: Purple Frost with specks of purple micro glitter.
·        Good Witch: Pink Frost with specks of pink micro glitter.

China Glaze will take you to that special polish place…some where over the rainbow with these gorgeous glitter polishes!

China Glaze colors may change from season to season, but our formula remains the same longwearing lacquer with hardeners. Designed with the professional in mind, our 220-strand brush is great for ease of application. Best of all, our non-thickening formula provides even coverage.  China Glaze nail lacquers are available through salons and professional beauty supply stores nationwide. For more information, visit: www.chinaglaze.com. China Glaze is a division of American International Industries. 





I'm not on the sample blogger list, just press releases, so I don't have swatches, unfortunately, but there are a few floating around. Scrangie and Vampy Varnish are two bloggers that I know have (great) swatches and reviews of this collection.

I was really looking forward to this collection.  However, now that I've seen swatches, I'm a bit underwhelmed.  If I can swing it, as I'm still on a no-buy, I'm still planning on getting Dorothy Who?, but I'm on the fence about the other colors.  I really like the look of Good Witch, for some reason.  As Kelly at Vampy Varnish stated, it really does look like Glinda's dress.  That was the first thing that popped in my head when I saw the color.  If I wasn't afraid it would look horrible on my hands, I'd pick that one up as well.  I'm pretty sure Sally's is going to get this collection in, so if I see it in person, I may end up getting it.  As far as I know, these are not available through etailers yet. 

EDIT: this collection is available at TD now.
