Glisten & Glow: The CHEERS! Collection - Swatches and Review

Press Sample 
*These products are Cruelty Free 


Today I have the latest collection from Glisten & Glow to show you - The Cheers Collection! Inspired, of course, by the TV show Cheers.

Glisten & Glow
Cheers Collection



It wasn't my favorite TV show, but I've probably seen every episode at least once. Sort of part of the fabric of our culture now I suppose. But the shades it inspired are great!

Continued after the jump...




I'm going to start with my favorite, well, because I can!

Mayday Malone is a lovely soft, muted plum/grey with a scattered holo and lots of blue shimmer and violet micro-flakes. I think this shade would go with most skin tones. No issues to report. Two coats with one coat of HK Girl top coat for the photos.

"Do me a favor here, Woody. Hold down the fort while I pass that lady a tray of smoked SAMMY."

(Yells) NORM! is an aqua creme with a scattered holo, a green sheen and micro-flakes in blue and green. Two coats with one coat of HK Girl top coat for the photos.

COACH: What's shaking, Norm?
NORM : All 4 cheeks and a couple of chins.

Wise Crackin Carla is a medium lavender purple with a loose linear holo with loads of blue and violet micro-flakes. No issues at all. Two coats with one coat of HK Girl top coat for the photos.

"I am going to spend it all [her good tips] on my kids … how many gunny sacks and one way tickets do you think it will buy?"

Cliff Knows It All is a deep ocean blue creme with a loose linear holo and tons of blue micro-flakes. No issues to report. Two coats with one coat of HK Girl top coat for the photos.

"It’s a little known fact that smartest animal is a pig. Scientists say if pigs had thumbs and a language, they could be trained to do simple manual labor. They give you 20-30 years of loyal service and then at their retirement dinner you can eat them."

Woody's Wacky Wit is a lovely taupy plum with a linear holo and a fierce violet sheen in strong lighting and almost a burgundy sheen in low light. No issues at all. Two coats with one coat of HK Girl top coat for the photos.

"Kelly, my darlin', you are my sunshine. When we're together, I feel fine. Your smile is so lovely, your hair is so clean. You make me feel the whole world is mine. Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, K-E-L-L-Y. Why? Because you're Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly of mine. Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine."

Partial sun - it was teasing me but it never actually decided to come out...
