Aloha my lovelies!
So if you remember my review from last year:
You'll basically see the same set up: 3 color nail polishes, that you need to layer 3 times...
...
Etude House basically did a reprise of their "Christmas Miracle" nails, repackaged them into SLIGHTLY different sets, then changed the name haha
It's a smart business move nonetheless, but looking at the sets...
(when I went there was one other set which was a dark blue with silver glitter tips)
they weren't that impressive, and since I already had a blue themed nail set from them I decided to get the more festive look..I think my friend bought the same multicolored polish last year actually haha!
But anyway, in the Delight Holiday set comes three colors:
gold (Delight Gold) , red (Delight Deep Red) , and green&red (Delight Red&Green Pearl)
Considering it's Etude House, the packaging is absolutely adorable!
The little house idea is soo cute! since I've never seen any other brand do this I was so excited when I saw it!...before I analyzed the contents haha!
(not saying the contents are bad..just not that impressed
with the color choices since they are too similar to last years line)
but they did include stickers which was cool!...but again their other sets have that...

a little side note: for those who have read some of my other reviews..and know a little about me, you'll notice that even though I live in Japan right now, I still buy tons of korean makeup...esp. Etude House...if you're asking why..well..it's because the Etude House store gives SO MANY samples! And I can't help but go back whenever I'm in the area! I love korean brands because they give tons of samples! (kind of like sephora!) not many japanese stores do that...partly because most brands rely on drug stores to do most of their selling and they don't really have their own store.. i think ...
ok! enough of my blabbing *sorry* >__<!!!
on to the review!!!
Etude House's new bag! sooo cute!
Packaging for the Shining Dream holiday nails :)
veeeryy cute! I love the house theme! the unique, adorable packaging
totally makes up for the color choices!
contents: 3 nail polishes and a silver sticker sheet! very cute :)
close up of the stickers!
(please ignore my terrible painting skills xwx!! i didn't have q-tips with me at the time to clean!)
I was so surprised by the thickness of the polish!
I thought the color would be similar to last years, I think I remember having to use about 5 or 6 coats!
this one is only 3!! I'm greatly impressed! Etude is stepping uppp!!! >w<!
the dark red reminds me of the red part of a candy cane haha!
since I was thinking about last years set of christmas nails, I thought the second coating (the gold)
would also need more than 3 or 4 coats of polish! I was soo wrong, I only needed one or 2, the gold was very thick, so much glitter x_x! so I messed up on my first two nails haha!
1: my thumb, when I first tested how thick the polish is, first coat
2: my index finger when I made sure to put a VERY light coat
3: index and middle finger after a VERY light first coat
4: all fingers except thumb with very light first coat
5: all fingers except thumb with a very light second coat!
be careful about that gold >w< very thick! but thats good :))
1 coat of the green&red mix polish :), I think I used two coats..but I didn't take a second pic >< sorry!
I even put a cute sticker >w<!!! but even with two top coats..the sticker fell off after the next day or two ><
finally after letting everything dry and getting off the excess:
finished nails :)) I like em!
The house shape box is too adorable!!! and ofc the cute art and girly style is also very cute!
for less than $10 this is a great buy! I really love etude house for their cheap and cute products!
since I was expecting the same troublesome nail polish as last year I was so surprised and happy to find out that Etude House has greatly improved the quality on this polish :)
I think even though the colors were nothing new, the quality of the product was so great! And definitely worth trying out if you have the time! would definitely recommend :))
Thanks for reading ♡ mahalo to you !
