Happy Monday! As you may have noticed, I took a bit of a break from my blog this past week. I’ve just been so busy with school and my internship this semester! Luckily I had a long weekend thanks to President’s Day, and I’ve gotten in some much needed rest. Now I’m here to show you this week’s manicure in the Alphabet Challenge. We’re onto letter C, and I’m trying on a China Glaze polish. Please forgive my winter cuticles in the photos – the NYC temperatures have not been good to my hands!
This is Stone Cold, one of the polishes released in the Hunger Games collection a few years back. Stone Cold is a slate grey polish with a matte formula. It contains a silver shimmer in the base that really makes it look like solid rock! Stone Cold has a really great formula that is opaque in one coat. I applied two above just to test it out. I can’t believe this beauty has lived in my nail polish collection for nearly three years without me using it!
All in all, I am so glad I finally pulled out Stone Cold! It has a really unique color and formula, and I’m certainly a sucker for matte finishes. I do wish clean-up on my cuticles was easier, but now I know to be super careful during application with this one. While Stone Cold was a limited edition shade from China Glaze, it is available on Amazon HERE for $6.49! Make sure to snag it if you want it, though, as there are only four bottles left as I type this!
Please let me know your favorite China Glaze shades in the comments! I love your recommendations!

This really is a great polish. It’s one of my faves from the collection.
It’s now one of mine, too!
Stone Cold is one of the shades from the Hunger Games collection that I felt never really got enough attention. It is such a great shade!
So true! I can’t believe I didn’t try it sooner!
This is one of my favorite shades from that collection, but I like to use it with a top coat! The shimmer really comes out that way. Still looks good matte though!
I love being able to “glossify” matte shades, too!
My favorite china glaze shade would have to be that’s shore bright!
