Low priced cremes some with hidden shimmer
Studio is from Superdrug (UK drugstore) - it's a real cheapy line but I've found the quality to be fine.
The following is the Studio Christmas collection 2011, I know, I know, it's September 2012!
The bottles are not big but not mini, probably 7 or 8ml
Greige - like the name implies this is your usual purple toned grey/brown creme, quite a dark version and with silver micro shimmer
The micro shimmer is what lifts this above all the other 'greige' polishes.
Swatch is 2 coats with no top coat
Willow - lovely greyed green creme, again not super unique but nicely done.
Swatch is 2 coats with no top coat
Shadow - blue toned grey creme, but again with the microshimmer. The shimmer is pretty subtle but adds a nice speckled effect to the polish
Again swatch is 2 coats with no top coat
Jade - bright green leaning blue creme, almost neon and it's a one-coat wonder.
Swatch - one coat!
Orchid - neon purply pink
Swatch is 2 coats again but this one dries semi-matte due to it's neon tendancies so I added a top coat for shine
To me this collection didn't scream Christmas, it was just a bundle of random but good polishes
Overall this was a great collection for the price which was well below £10 and in a 3 for 2 deal.
Obviously you can't just go and pick this collection up but the Studio range is still sold in Superdrug and judging by the polish names I don't think they are special Christmas colours
