China Glaze Happy Camper Collection

One of my favorite things about the fall is the total color switchover. Goodbye hot pinks and cool beachy blues, welcome cranberry and orange and mustard yellow.

Recently, China Glaze’s new fall minis landed on my doorstep and I couldn’t be more excited. Their kit this year is called Happy Camper ($15) and has some great colors inspired by camping and the woods.


The overall collection is called “The Great Outdoors” and is inspired by adventure, camping, caves, crystals, explorations, forests, nature, and the wilderness.

Now, I like camping. I like camping a lot. I like unplugging for a few days and just enjoying the silence.  I don’t care what my nails look like when I camp because you’re already living that portapotty/no shower lifestyle, so thinking about your nails is kind of the last thing on my mind. Despite this, I love these colors. They’re warm and gorgeous and the kind of colors I’ll be gravitating to this fall.


I also like that China Glaze nail polishes are free of DBP, formaldehyde, and toluene free, but have added china clay to make them harder and to create a smooth and even application.

Shades in the kit include

- Wood You Wanna
- Sleeping Under the Stars
- Change Your Altitude
- My Lodge or Yours
- Free Bear Hugs
- Cabin Fever

L-R: Wood You Wanna, Sleeping Under the Stars, Change Your Altitude
My favorite is Wood You Wanna, but all of these are winners. They went on really smoothly and fantastically. You can see in the swatches how awesome these shades are.

L;R: My Lodge or Yours, Free Bear Hugs, Cabin Fever
Definitely a happy camper.
